The Misadventures of an American Expat and His Wife in Germany
2012 – Funny Things
For that special moment at your wedding — the first dance — when you realize American health insurance may never pay to straighten out your spouse’s spinal chord. (Note: My wife wants you all to know she does not have Scoliosis.)Germans may never understand why American weddings can bankrupt a young couple. (Because it’s tradition, honey!)It’s true! The birth rate in Germany is at its lowest since 1946. (Something big, worldwide and unfortunate happened just before then, I think.)Have you ever eaten Wiener schnitzel before? They fry the holy bejeezus out of it. Kinda like chicken fried steak here in the United States.Germans typically don’t drink their beer ice cold, like we do. And no matter how they defend this preference of theirs — no. It’s gross.Singing Du Hast by Rammstein is a great way to learn a little German. Try it! That angry-sounding German accent helps frighten AND motivate you!
Were that the only beer I could get I’d drink it. Actually some beers do taste better when they are not super cold. But not all. Thanks for stopping by the bistro. I need to find a rocket chair.
