Well Judy, since you asked…..my friend Charlie. I want to say more, I am just afraid I might jinx it. Of course, I was prepared to go alone- but I have realized I prefer the idea of going with someone. I AM EXCITED!!!!

I bought a dress for my 10-year High School Reunion. It is black and quite short but I think with black sheer stockings it won’t look sleazy. The reunion is in a few short weeks. AND I AM GOING ALONE. I actually gave serious thought to hiring an escort… okay, 15 seconds of serious thought until I dismissed it as insane. I figure I will go, walk around, see the people that I want to see and then if I am unhappy or not having fun, I will leave. High School did not treat me well. It was a horrendous time for me. Yet, for some reason, I need to go. I think it is a chapter in my life that needs some serious closure and I am hoping the reunion will do just that. It isn’t important to have a date, I think. I will go alone and appear confident, independent, and unabhängig. Yeah, that is exactly what will happen.

German Toilet Paper Novels Hit Stalls
FRANKFURT (Reuters) – Germans who like to read on the toilet no longer need to take newspapers in with them, but can instead turn to novels and poems printed onto toilet paper, a German publisher said on Wednesday.

It would probably be best to print a really horrible novel on toilet paper, that way you can get some joy by wiping it on your butt.

Massimo, you are right– Moritz Bleibtreu did not portray Katja Riemann’s homosexual brother in Stadtgespräch although he did portray the homosexual brother’s BOYFRIEND which is what I meant to type. However, Armin Rohde was the homosexual butcher in Der Bewegte Man AND he was Herr Schuster in Lola Rennt! So Irren ist Massimo! 😉

When I think of Irren ist Männlich I think of my old Gastschwester, Sabine. You see, Sabine took me to see Irren ist Männlich when it was playing in the theaters. This means I saw it with NO SUBTITLES. There was a scene in which the father was running around and screaming in German, naturally. I couldn’t understand a word he was saying! Suddenly he ran out the door and into the street. I turned to Sabine and I said, “Sabine, what is going on? I don’t understand!” Sabine replied, “Oh, the father, he was just screaming and then he ran out the door.” I was about to say, “Sabine, I am not BLIND! What did the father say auf englisch!” …but I didn’t. It seemed easiest just to stay quiet. I am sure Sabine was thinking, “Stupid, lazy American fool!”

Those crazy Germans, you just gotta love ’em!

Leader Calls for Crackdown After Kiss
TEHRAN (Reuters) – Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei Sunday called on police to crackdown on immoral behavior in public after a storm of protest over a kiss at a film awards ceremony.
Well-known actress Gohar Kheirandish kissed the forehead of Ali Zamani and shook his hand as he collected the top director’s prize at a ceremony last week in the central city of Yazd.
Kheirandish, who is in her 50s, appeared in court on Thursday to hear charges of immoral behavior and was released on $3,750 bail. Zamani, in his 20s, appeared in court earlier in the week. His bail was set at $2,500.
Lawyers said the pair could face a jail sentence or up to 74 lashes for their actions, but were more likely to be fined.
The pair have apologized for what they said was a spontaneous, maternal gesture by Kheirandish. The young director was a student of her late husband.

Call me ethnocentric- I don’t care. These people are crazy!!!
