Skandal (Skandal)

Other than that I was recently reminded of how much I love this song there is no, I repeat NO to post the folling, but I' ve done it anyway.

Also I haven't bothered much about lyric lay-out. Who speaks German anyway?

In München steht ein Hofbräuhaus
Doch Freudenhäuser müssen raus,
Damit in dieser schönen Stadt
Das Laster keine Chance hat!
Doch jeder ist gut informiert
Weil Rosie täglich inseriert
Und wenn dich deine Frau nicht liebt
Wie gut, daß es die Rosi gibt!
Und draußen vor der großen Stadt
Stehen die Nutten sich die Füße platt!

Skandal
Skandal um Rosie!
Ja Rosie hat ein Telefon
Auch ich hab' ihre Nummer schon.
Unter 32-16-8
Herrscht Konjunktur die ganze Nacht.
Und draußen im Hotel d'Amour
Langweilen sich die Damen nur,
Weil jeder den die Sehnsucht quält
Ganz einfach Rosies Nummer wählt.
Und draußen vor der großen Stadt
Stehen die Nutten sich die Füße platt!

Und draußen im Hotel d'Amour
Langweilen sich die Damen nur,
Weil jeder den die Sehnsucht quält
Ganz einfach Rosies Nummer wählt.
Und draußen vor der großen Stadt
Stehen die Nutten sich die Füße platt!

Style?




Your Style is Bohemian



When it comes to fashion, anything goes for you... especially if it's whimsical and fun.

You draw your style influences from all over, and you are a pro at mixing and matching.



You believe that fashion rules are meant to be broken. You don't need anyone to tell you what looks good.

You rock your own unique and free spirited style. And many people secretly envy you for it.




One thing is certain, if (and I do say IF) I am envied IS in secret.

Concerning Paper Handkerchiefs

(To the wider public known and addressed as 'tissues'. )

Having just recovered from a little cold, ( Read having lived in denial of my illness for three days, only to feel more miserable every day and spending the weekend certain of my soon demise) I noticed while looking for something to blow my nose in, the following:

1) All the fabric handkerchiefs I have are child sized and dito decorated.
2) I have enormous amounts of packs of tissues from which only one was ever used. This lead to the conclusion that I have a lot of available tissues and that ...
3) Paper once designed in colour, touch and smell to relieve the headached and worn-out ill masses may in less than two years completely dry out and metamorphose in vile squares of newspaper paper texture and stiffness.

Happy 2011 Valentine

Since there will always be at least one reader who is into mushy commercial holidays :

To everyone else and especially the pining lover, who the horoscope of Flair predicts will tell me of his/her love: I have spent all the years that I might have cared for Valentines gifts single, the caring is over but I intend to be single for a little while longer so don't bother getting me something.

Quote #46

I loathe people who keep dogs. They are cowards who haven't got the guts to bite people themselves.

August Strindberg

I'll it know that the above is no expression of my personal opinion though.
