A German government demanding to see your papers.what could go wrong?
Taking shots at Germans for their history. SMDH.
Too,be fair,I do like their beer.
Already on number 3. Wonder if I can make it to am lynx.
Second cup of coffee for me.I have about 10 hours before the drinking lamp is lit.
it's 5:00 somewhere..
You know what other government demanded to see your papers?
Every one since the invention of paper?
They still make German Cabinets out of Yew?
Where else would they store the fine bone china?
better to light one candle (made of some unmentionable material) than to curse the darkness?
Those people would then have bigger things to worry about than the Kraut government. Disney's attorneys would swoop in like death from above.
Indeed, Fist of Parliament. Imagine the egg on Disney's face for this little ditty in response.
Sounds like an attempted escalation of the War on The Laws of Supply and Demand (aka The War on Drugs), to try and keep burner phones away from drug dealers trying to avoid being wiretapped.
Stay classy, Google. Mohammed Ali memorial is a mere obscure small text footnote intestine search portal today. Contrast with the full graphical celebration of the maniac Yuri Kichiyama.

Autocorrect "on the main" to "intestine." Makes sense.
That was ridiculously retarded.
Secured an AirBnB rental a stone's throw from the Beaudry metro station for Jul 2-5. Any recommendations? You mentioned rarely going into the city these days.
Ali's birthday is January 19. Feting Kuchiyama was disgusting, but it was on her birthday.
Happy deathday, Cassius!
