Ich nix verstehen (I don’t get it). I thought their career had already been ended for them long, long ago.
But now their latest album will be their last, they promise. Germany’s most successful hard rock band has been at it for some 40 years now (at least) and they’re feeling it or something I guess and enough is enough already. What else ya gonna do, become a Rolling Stone?
Das aktuelle Album soll das letzte sein, die weltweite Tournee soll den Metal-Veteranen als Abschiedsreise dienen.
McWhy not?
You’ve just got to ask yourself how it could have taken this long to begin with.
Few traces of the wall remain but the site is home to a replica of a hut housing US border guards behind sandbags as well as a “You Are Entering the American Sector” sign.
In Iran? Sure would be nice.
And one thing speaking for it is the sheer improbabilty of it all. But that seems to be how history works.

“Yes we can!”
Umm, actually no we can’t.
It soon became clear that China was not signing up to any treaty that allowed other countries to snoop around in their dirty emissions laundry.
Gonna enjoy the Fall of the Wall Anniversary festivities and stuff. Hope you do too.
There’s freedom and then there’s free, OK?

Or is to keep the 10,000 lucky free ticket holders in? You know, like from, well, escaping to the West? Then maybe they do have more sense than I thought.
“The Brandenburg Gate is the symbol of our unity, the view should be open to all, at all times.”
“Of the roughly 3,300 comments left on the virtual wall, around 1,500 have been in Chinese, said Carsten Hein, coordinator of the “berlintwitterwall.com” project.”
Come on, you know you are, deep down inside. You’re a wanna-be scrawler, scribbler, graffiti artist, I mean. It’s just that you’re way too polite or law abiding or inhibited or whatever. So here’s your big chance. I think.
The Berlin Twitter Wall, online now, actually encourages people to schmier all they want. It has something to do with the fall of the Berlin Wall that took place way, way long ago on Nov. 9, 1989. I think.
“No one has the intention of constructing a Twitterwall,”
