Nope. But we have a food called "Berliner" - the German doughnuts, which are called "Berliner" everywhere in Germany - except for Berlin, where they call them "Pfannkuchen" (pancake); which is something completely different again for the rest of all Germans.

Not much "chatting it up" recently, Waldemar. I guess everybody is a bit like in a kind of vigilant coma, and only the release of WOFF, or atl least the first "Preview Movies" will wake them all up again. Which must make it much harder for Pol, Winder & Co, as they would rather be fuelled by some more interaction here, I guess.

New Camel skins for William Barker's B6313 Camel
Olham replied to rjw's topic in WOFF UE/PE - General Discussion
You can say that again! You could earn a lot of money as a perfect lobbyist! (But then I guess you'd hate all the dinners with politicians...) -

Se5a and Camel Skins modded with Red Canadian Maple Leaf
Olham replied to rjw's topic in WOFF UE/PE - General Discussion
rjw, I find that especially the Camel and the Red Maple Leaf go very well together. -
Nope - Holland is Dutch, and aerh - well, Holland. But it's actually not that bad. The Dutch are the West Frisian people. So we are east of them. See this little map - my hometown is Norden:

Well, he said "iech bin ain Bärliener" - but we understood him very well.

Hey, Jim, you may have tried it "here and there" in Germany - but never in Ostfriesland, I bet. We are like an island of tea drinkers there, in a sea of coffee addicts. There are several East Frisian Tea Blends - some add also Ceylon and Darjeeling. Personally I prefer a blend of Assams.
-
Mmuahahahahaaaaa!!!! Now that's a cute story - I guess you are talking of the big one? Ah - I KNEW it was something technical - no one would pour that much milk into the tea for taste! Mmuahahahahahaaaa!!!!!

There are many theories, which can all not be proven. The best one seems to be, that the heraldic animal was chosen after Albrecht I., who conquered the Mark Brandenburg back from the Slawonians and seems to have started the fortification of the city. Albrecht's by-name was "the Bear". http://en.wikipedia....Albert_the_Bear

Everybody has their own taste, of course.
-
Just listened through the voice samples of dict.cc, and the more correct English word for the first silable would be rather "bear". So it's "bear-lean". And that makes even more sense - the bear is in Berlin's arms.
-
He definitely had something great to look back upon in all his later life.
-
It is their local preference, HumanDrone. Our capital is - in English phonetics - spelled "Bare-lean" (Ber-lin). With the accent on the second silabel.

I see you love your "hometown" amd defend every letter of it. I think I'll remember that: Pittsburgh ! I have no real idea of autism and am amazed to read, that he can speak the characters with life and emotions as the non-autistic have and show.
-
Oh, as an East Frisian I love tea. But it must be strong enough, not watered or milked down. A malty redbrown blend of Assams is what we East Frisians love. With a rock candy in it, and a spoonful of good fresh cream - hmmmm!!!

Von Baur, most of these traces are in former East Berlin. But the 8.8 hole in the bridge pylon is in West Berlin.

"La Guerre Arienne Illustrée" online
Olham replied to shredward's topic in WOFF UE/PE - General Discussion
Wow, this looks like the stuff to look through during the coming winter. Thanks, Shredder! -
No, I don't think so. It was just not done on some houses.

By the way: I also have many Calvin & Hobbes comics, and the first three books are among my all-time-greats. Strips like the one, where they are lying in a meadow, and Calvin is wondering about the question where they might go when they die. The Tiger says "Pittsburg?" And Calvin asks: "You mean when we were good, or when we were bad?"

Andy Capp ever had "an official job" ???
-
Aaaahhh - the great search function of this Forum made it possible - here is the link to an older post about Berliner Mandelbrot incl recipe: http://combatace.com...ad/#entry457523 Let me add this: the whole stuff gets even nicer, when you add whole almonds. Cutting the cake is easier, when you cut it when it's still warm; and dip the knife in hot water inbetween two cuts.

Yes, well, the first name "Andy" is not used in German; and we also don't use the word "Cap", so the joke would lost. We have the short "Andi" for "Andreas", but it's not a very common name. Best translation would have been "Andi Kappe". "to wack" has a totally different meaning for you; in German the adjective "wacker" means something like "brave" or "hearty". Don't the British and Americans also change names into English?
