Well, it's that time. The holiday season is upon us! Time for many of us to takea break from working on our Bildschirmbraeune, and engage in any number of Gammelfleischparties. Wait... Todd, what in the heck are you talking about... what's a Gammerthingy and a bildsquirmywhat... well, see for yourself. German is such a fun language!
Next, instead of sharing some weird news story, I thought I'd share a weird photo or two... Here's the first one. I have two questions... how, and why?
Next up in the best costume contest... Darth Cateous. I usually despise comments at the end of articles (or photos in this case), but the first one made me laugh.
Finally, here's something a little more closer to home. Here's the actual house. l can see why they don't want pets!
Anyway, that's all I've got for today. Have a great week and see ya next time.
