Sinister: Guildo and bubblegum

Hello.

Guildo Horn! Very important that someone mentioned him, the best 
cultural ambassador of German humour next to Helmut Kohl, but as 
Heeeeelmut has now retired, there's only him left. But we will all 
remember Mr. Kohl for his sentence: "the important thing is what 
comes out behind". And I don't think he had vibrating love eggs in 
mind. 
Normally, the shows of Guildo also included taking off his shirt and 
showing that he's got more hair on his chest than you would expect, 
and to throw home-made biscuits in the audience. So what went on last 
year in the Eurovision was only half the fun, really..

There is a band called Rainer Maria? I don't know if that's cool or 
pretentious, so I'll be a nice person and suppose it's cool. Will 
this start a thread about the many wonderful works of Rilke? I don't 
want to be held responsable for that, so I won't ramble about the 
wonderful works of Rilke now. 

> a) where oh where can I get the Dr Pepper gum that someone 
> mentioned ages ago? 
That was me. I remember having seen this in Germany and Austria, 
which is strange, because I've never seen the drink here. And I 
suppose that it tastes completely different, because it did not 
remind me of plum at all; more of cinnamon. Or was this gum  Dr-
something-else? Maybe my memory is letting me down. 
BTW I like the way you mention something in a post and soemone 
remembers it 3 weeks later. Makes you feel that you exist. 

So many Hermann Hesse fans here! I really thought his fame would stop 
with screaching tyres at the border of the german-speaking countries. 
You're all soooo well-educated! and I am a poor chap who has not even 
read a single book by JD Salinger. Not even Catcher in the Rye. And 
never seen a film by Hal Hartley. 
Don't stare at me like that.

PS: "Breast-Feed Posh Ogled By A Million Germans".. could someone 
please translate this for me?
