Feldgrau Forum Photo Riddle ?

Thank you Paul!

Let's see what you all get out of this next one.

This is Mr. X.

Mr. X is not known as such... participated
to some degree in WWII and that's that.
What he helped produce is much better known!
Who is he? What did he help produce...?

Again a somewhat alternative riddle. Seek in the
present and you will stumble upon the past

Food hunting

Well they're like...

"F for G and I'm sorry
Live together in perfect harmony
Side by side on my computer keyboard
Oh Feldgrauian, why don't we?"

Wierd Al Weedovic

- and yes, I guess the consumption of food has
some sort of connection to the end product!

hint: don't take that detour!

Let's see,

Weird Al Weedovic.
Food has some sort of connection with product.......Cannabis can get you get you into a feeding frenzy!
The pulp writer's fiction will influence the product in the future.........wasn't Pulp Fiction full of references to Dutch Weed?

I still don't know his name but I guess Mr. X opened the first Coffeeshop in Holland?

Sorry Paul

Weed, food and coffeshops have no real importance here.
The "Weed" was just me "Al" fooling around with my name
to fit the new lyrics...

The author on the other hand is important. Find him and
some of his work and it will be much easier to find what
Mr. X had a hand in producing...

Ahmm, hand is'nt quite the
adequate word or limb to use here!

More pictorial clues will follow.

Good morning.

Found the author: Robert E. Howard. I don't have a connection to Mr X yet....

Hectic at work today, relaxing with a riddle and some coffee

Thank you Magnus

So, Robert E. Howard wrote (among many other stuff) the Conan The Barbarian stories.
That brings me to bodybuilding and the Governator aka the Austrian Oak who's father may have served in the war in..............what ever else than the Wehrmacht

Is Mr. X Schwarzenegger senior??

Cheers,

Paul

Hello Paul

You're right, it is him

Hauptfeldwebel Gustav Schwarzenegger served with the Feldgendarmerie in WW2 and afterwards continued with the police force.

Hehehe, thanks for that picture and riddle Waleed! And to Magnus and Paul for solving it!

So it was Schwarzenegger Sr. Never actually seen a picture of him. I'm also from Graz, Steiermark as the Schwarzeneggers,and my family name also starts with the classical Schw...

And I'm quite tall and rather large...

No relations though,

Sorry for not being around for all the fun!

Yes Magnus, the author was Robert E. Howard and the link was ofcourse Conan!
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_E._Howard

Conan was played by Arnie in those terrible 1980's movies and as Paul correctly
deducted out of the information Mr. X is Gustav Schwarzenegger!
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gustav_Schwarzenegger

And what did he have a helping "hand" in producing... Arnold Alois Schwarzenegger!
YES! Alois as a middle name...

Well done all. Over to you again Paul!

Hasta la Vista, but I'll be Baak!

Hi guys,

I'm currently way too busy to come up with a riddle

Next time we can vote for our new government I'll vote for the party that promises 30-hour days

Magnus was on the brink of finding the right answer to Waleeds eye-opener so I think Magnus would be the best candidate to put up the next riddle.

Over to you Magnus!

Working regards,

Paul

Thank you Paul.

This might be a quick and easy one....or maybe not?

I'm looking for a person...and no it has nothing to do with venereal diseases

Good luck Gentlemen!

Would that be "Buster" the diver?

Just had a quick look and think that it has nothing to do with diving

Try translating crab to German and see what you come up with then Waleed

Hinting regards,

Paul
