Re: Rudi Salvermoser TV Star

Thanks for the link to this episode .. I finally got to see it, as att never aired it locally .. absolutely riveting from start to finish. My goodness, what an incomprehensible tragedy that all was.

Re: Well this one has me completely beaten.

Perhaps students of the German literature from 100-150 years ago might have a better idea of the text ;) I gave up trying to figure out this stuff years ago right after being confronted with the concept of 'das Firmament'

Re: Goodbye

So if someone who is an immigrant has become a citizen of the United States of America, does that mean that that immigrant who was born elsewhere might never really have a chance to be considered to be a citizen of first class like those who were born here? So very cool, and good to know ....

Re: PC Series: Feldgrau: Kafka on Trial

Pretty much grew up at home listening to what the parents (mostly my mother) tuned in to on the local German radio station broadcasts .. plenty Operetten Musik like 'Der Vogelhändler' and 'Die Fledermaus' and music by Lehar and Strauss .. the best of the best IMHO, very thankful to have grown up in ...
