Brother going to Germany soon. What should he bring back?

[bpcsguru]

Guys, my brother is going on a vacation to Germany in less than two weeks. He asked whether I wanted anything brought back. I'm open to suggestions from this board!

Real Bier and chocolate (dark)...

Tell him to get some Budvar Budweiser. This is not the cow piss that is made here in the states but real beer! This stuff has been made since the 1700's in Eastern Europe. Is not allowed to be sold here in the states under agreement with Ami Budweiser as they are afraid we will like it more. Only available in Europe...

Porsche parts and such are more expensive over there, so hold on that.

Ditto on the girls... especially from Holland or Denmark.

JA

If he opts for the short train ride to Amsterdam he may bring back more than he bargains for...party hats are a good idea (required by law over there).

Joeaksa, Budvar IS now in the USA. I've waited many years and stumbled upon it in NC in May. It's called Czechvar here, but you'll recognize the bottle. They tested it in several markets first and should be nationwide any day now. I got on their website and emailed them. A guy wrote back saying mid-August would be when it was available in the Wash. DC area.

I used to carry a 12 or a case of the small bottles on the plane with me. Now I don't have to. I really can't wait until it's on tap here.

[Joeaksa]

Richard,

You MADE MY DAY! Will start looking for it today! Glad to hear that I am not the only one addicted to good European beer!

Now, who is importing the girls??

Thx,

Joe

[Rick Lee]

Keep the hairy armpit ladies on the other side of the big pond.

[Joeaksa]

Richard,

How much time have you spent in Europe??

Some of the ladies in Europe will have ANY man groveling and the vast majority of those in most of Europe shave their pits. Even so, if I was in the bedroom (or any other place for that matter) and found a lady who did not shave her pits, I would not put my clothes back on and walk away... Life is just different over there and some of it is a lot better than here.

If you want to experience Heaven, to go Holland, Denmark, Germany (you get the idea) in the summer and go to ANY public park. Someone has forgotten to tell the girls there that their bodies are dirty, (same with sex) and they like the sun. Sunbathing in the nude is legal in ANY public park in the majority of Europe and I for one enjoy it as well. Even in the conservative places the girls go topless.

Couple this with lots of 911's, good beer and its hard to beat!

Yawn...I've been sailing, as crew, in both the Med and the Caribbean. You'd see topless all the time. My theory was that after these rich guys spent all their money on the yacht, they couldn't afford tops for the girlfriend's swimming suit. And you know, at first topless is a surprise...but after you've seen it a few weeks? You want to see more.

[Rick Lee]

Yeah, I've been there enough times to get over the novelty and to appreciate the beautiful Fillipino I have here. BTW, OT - Poland's women are better than California's -- no joke.

[epbrown]

Seriously, ask him to check if the Porsche fiberglass targa tops are plentiful over there - I never see a source of them for sale in the British car mags I buy.

If he makes it to Stuttgart, he could always attempt to nab the "Porschestrasse" street sign for you. I am pretty sure it has been taken (and replaced) more times than you could count!

Hmm, Richard, you almost made me angry :P There is no way you can compare Poland to the other countries in Europe. Poland has been a very poor country until recently. They lived under Russian tyranny so long time.

Here in Finland..(Yes, thats in Europe)...well what would I say.

100% Literacy
90% of people can talk swedish
90% of people can talk english pretty fluently.
Free health/dental care for children (under 17). Almost free for adults (20$ a year)

No homeless, no ghettos.
Crime rate next to nothing.

Thousands of lakes, which are all pollution free, drinkable water.

No nature calamities (no quakes, tornados, floods, etc.)

Beautiful women. My roommate was from USA, and he told me that here in Finland there are more good looking women than in the US (proportionally). If Ibiza beaches are not counted.

On the other hand, we have very short summers, and winters are long and cold (-30-40 celsius in january). AND, we have very high taxes (over 100% in cars), and we pay 1$ per litre of gasoline.

Phew

Zen,

those achievements aren't so amazing when you only have 4 million people in your country. Less than half the size of London.

[cstreit]

Waiiiiit a minute... No ghettos? in Poland? C'mon...! Never been to a European city that didn't have a ghetto..

[Zendalar]

Finland, not Poland. I was just referring to poland because a person said european women have hairy armpits.

And besides we have over 5 million people :P, the quantity does not count.

Hey Zen, we love Finland in my part of the USA. Lots of folks from the old country here; not unusual for people on the Iron Range (Northern Minnesota) still speak Finish or speak English with an accent. And yes, the Finish women here are gorgeous.

Besides, any country that takes on the Soviets for 100 days in 1939-1940 without any world support, loses 20% of their population and still doesn't capitulate is tops in my book. What did Molotov say about the Winter War after it was over? I think the quote was "We've gained enough terrtory to bury our dead."

I'm not Finish, but I am a student of the Winter War. BTW, the Poles have a pretty good record of resisting tyrany too, despite the subsequent Soviet occupation.

Americans, canīt beleive that they are still replicating themself.

This is normal in some regions and after a while you get used to it. But it is funny how some guys are focused on that.
If you try to make contact then never look on the lower portions the eyes make the game.
Hell I should have to write a book about emanzipation. If you wanna stand out the crowd then wear a bikini and everyone will look at you.

The street sings are partially boltet on with special locking screws, but not every town has them secured. If the police traps you then tell them you found it and where looking for a possibility to save it. Iīm not sure how you guys would treat me If I steal staate properity, here you get billed and fined.

The truth about sweden and norway is that you canīt drink alcahol ( it is not like in the staates ) and all those seas have milliards little flys waiting to unpump your blood.

Ha had you seen Mette ? thats a typical northern style girl.


Not to forget the chech have the best beer and nice women too. Prag is something like americanized city ( Even Ethan Hunt was there taking a hard shower and Bill made music with Watzlav ). Other good woman capture area is south spain. Be perpared for fire & ice. Antonio Banderas had to leave as he couldnīt satisfy all the women so you must fullfill his task.

Better stay away from italian beautys as you maybe have to decide between her or her brothers, mariage and coffin.

French woman are hot too but to overfashioned to get dirty.

Well the world is full of nice women just finding the right one is the problem.

Grüsse

Hey he has to visit Porsche if not this will be moved into off topic..........

Freefly, snatching the Porschestrasse and Porscheplatz signs is my top priority when I decide to go to Stuttgart some day

Roland, what do you think the polizei will do when they catch me??

Joeaksa, thanks for making me laugh. I guess I'm lucky to live in Denmark. Beautiful girls with only little clothes on (that's no rumor), good Tuborg and Carlsberg beer and a small number of Porsches

Only disadvantage is the 180% car tax
