Katzenauges Postille

This guy drives up to his house and where he parks is full
of snow. So he parks in a nearby parking lot and walks back home to shovel out a car-sized space in front of his house.
It takes hours to shovel, but finally done, he walks back to the lot to get his car. When he returns home, he finds that the space has been taken by some other car. He is, well, upset.

What most people do is write nasty notes etc. and place them on the windshield of the offending vehicle. Police sometimes get involved however, when the individual vents his wrath in somewhat more violent means. Tires and throats have been slashed over this.
This guy decides to get creative. Instead of doing the usual nasty, he got out his garden hose and watered the automobile down, real well. I mean, very, very thoroughly. The water of course froze solid. When the owner returned, instead of a car, he found a car-sized Popsicle.

The note on the car read: "You want the space? Here, it's yours until spring!"


(Vielleicht sollte ich doch lieber Weihnachtsgrüße schreiben?)

Long, long ago an old Indian chief was about to die, so he called for Geronimo and Falling Rocks, the two bravest warriors in his tribe.

The chief instructed each to go out and seek buffalo skins. Whoever returned with the most skins would be chief.

About a month later Geronimo came back with one hundred pelts, but, sadly, Falling Rocks never returned.

Today as you drive through the West you can see the evidence of love and devotion the tribe had for this brave. At nearly every mile marker there are signs saying:

KEEP AN EYE OUT FOR FALLING ROCKS.


... Und da frag uns doch noch mal einer, wo Autoren die Ideen hernehmen ;)

See you at the watercooler

December 24, 1931: New York City construction workers,
at the future site of Rockefeller Center, dragged in a
12 foot Christmas tree and decorated it with tin cans and
paper. The first official Rockefeller Center tree, with
700 blue and white lights, appeared two years later.

Und für alle, die gerne auf die obligatorischen Grüße verzichten (ich komme sowieso nicht mehr dazu), ein Rat:

Marry old Christmas !

See you at the watercooler
