Here, there, everywhere. We have to call it something, don't we? Who's got an idea? Let's call it Toponymy.

Stackenblocken, Football, and Rain

The Campus Cuties [our IM football team] lost tonight. We lost by two touchdowns. The rain started coming down hard after halftime. Luckily, there was no lightning. Interestingly enough, the other team [the Dolphin Floggers] had a fast little Asian guy on their team with the words "Asian Sensation" on his shirt. Like Porn's doppelganger.

Speaking of long German words... On the 10th Anniversary of Late Night with Conan O'Brien they showed a segment called Stackenblocken; a German game show where contestants must arrange things at 90 degree angles. The woman contestant appeared to have won, then Conan checks one item with a ruler. It's not correct. He slaps the woman in the face. Then he, and another German soldier start beating her. Then a German Shepard attacks her. And the theme song, oh, the theme song. Mulder and I were bent over laughing.

If I knew Polish then I might know why the small man seems so content. Here is the whole collection of Polish propaganda posters [wow].

This, is interesting.
