*OT* Victor, in looking at previous posts....absolutely loved your joke about German/English and the EU...

By the way, in the States they are running a brilliant ad campaign for Beck's (the German beer)....First one shows a German guy wearing a suit.... on a lonely, little stage with a spotlight on him..... some smoke in the air and a smattering on people thru the audience...He says in a heavy German accent.."Ja, I just flew in from Europe, and boy are my arms tired"....Little reaction from the crowd...

Then the announcer comes on and in a serious voice says,
"Germans don't do comedy....but they do DO beer! Beck's!"

Smashing!
