Tales From The Ansbach Area
I’m so tired of hearing about Sarah Palin that I can’t believe she is still around. This lady is back on the death panel kick again. WTF?? Is she so stupid that she doesn’t understand what the passage in the bill says? Damn, she has a “college” education, although I don’t know what her major [...]
When I listen to the news and here that some big bank, or company gets a bailout to keep from going under I wonder when I’m going to get mine. Gee, I’ve watched and so far my paycheck hasn’t changed a bit. It probably won’t either. So where is all this stimulus going? To me [...]
No, not here in Ansbach. The weather here has been beautiful. But I watch the webcams from Norway. Today for the first time, there was show on the tops of the mountains up near Geiranger. I can only imagine that crooked road we drove to get there. Is it snow covered yet? I don’t know. [...]
I read an article on CNN’s website today that finally hit the nail on the head. According to the article, SUV and pickup sales are dropping and the folks that own them now are having a hard time getting rid of theirs. Now why do you suppose this is? How about $4+ for a gallon [...]
I can’t believe what is happening back in the States this past week or so. So many shootings. First the shooting in Bailey Colorado which was a strange happening. They still haven’t figured out why it happened. Next was the shooting at the school in Wisconsin where the 15 year old kid went nuts, pried [...]
I can’t believe how cold it’s been around here lately. The ground is really frozen, and it’s just plain cold. Hopefully it will start to warm up soon. But enough about the weather. I’m sitting here watching President Bush try to push his state of the union message at the Grand Ol’ Opry tonight. I [...]
The Christmas spirit is alive and well in our area. We went to Nuremberg, and saw the kinder lantern parade for the third time. It’s always a beautiful sight. We enjoyed it as usual although with our timing this year I’m not sure if we will go again. We’ll just have to see. Friday night [...]
Well, for me, summer is officially over. Yes, I know, the calendar says there are a few more days. But today was the first day the teachers returned to our school. It signals the begining of a new school year. It’s been a good summer. We got to go back home to Colorado, and also [...]
It’s Sunday, and of course thanks to the German weather, it rainy and cloudy. Great day to stay home and read/watch TV/nap. I can only hope that the week gets better. I been working on Mondo again this morning, but with little success. There is something definitely wrong with SUSE 9.3 and Mondo. Unfortunately, I’m [...]
This is the first of hopefully many entries on this blog. I’ll try to update it often, and add things I think folks will want to know such as Flea Markets in the Ansbach area, and fests, and who knows. Perhaps also the thursday night outings.
