Who is the beloved here? On the sign is written "We love you" |

The episode is titled "Ich Bin Ein Berliner", so have a guess. |

Shouldn't this be Welcome or your German phrase: willkommen |
◊ 2011-10-20 14:59 |
Wir Lieben Sie! |

Keep on making jokes like this and you ought to be rather careful next time you're being driven around in a convertible... |

It's OK - I'm not named after an airport. |

Now I know, where all the money is! Today I saw an armoured bullion van ( Link to "blog.mercedes-benz-passion.com" ) - with the plate D-SL 240 |

Since the legendary bizarre sketch from November 1989 ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=imDzUCVtICk ) we Germans are reluctant with saying "I love you" Explanation: the guy was the feared boss of the DDR secret service at his first public appearence in more than 30 years - and immediately had outed himself as an senile old daddy. |

This is in every case wrong! O.k., you aren't familar with German realities, but noone from Berlin or around names this http://www.allmystery.de/dateien/vo59304,1296175831,berliner400.jpg (no ,it's no doughnut, it has no hole. And the Dutch "Oliebollen" are different, too) a "Berliner". Anywhere else in Germany it's indeed a "Berliner". O.k., except in m.pfaffeneder-country. The Bavarians say "Krapfen". In Berlin it has the idiotic and wrong name "Pfannkuchen" = "pancake". Wrong, because it's not made in a pan. The classic pancakes are named "Eierkuchen" = "egg's cake" there. Very odd, but it's not the only example for strange expressions here... Huh, just posting about this stuff causes a heartburn-attack... -- Last edit: 2011-10-21 14:56:57 |

I thought so a bit, but compared with the original scenery ( Link to "de.wikipedia.org" ) the people's crowd here is very very poor A little footnote for the lovers of legendary design: at that scene, in front of JFK, there was fitted the classic fan "HL 1/11" made by Braun ( http://sammlung-design.de/files/hl_1_11_02p.jpg ) P.S. Annother anachronism: up tp te Soccer World Cup 2006 it was unusual in Germany to show the national flag, except on official buildings. O.k., a few were used at the day of the unification, the 3.10.1990, but this was an exception. And: in Berlin the people have mainly used their own flag: http://www.reise-abc.ch/berlin/images/berlin-flagge.jpg |

Didn't you see me wave? I was moving the silver spoon collection. |

Probably Jamie Kitman's 1966 car - from comment at /vehicle.php?id=437794 and picture from http://www.cartalk.com/content/hold-rubber-why-big-tires-are-no-fun to prove it's dark green. LHD and non-UK minor lights so labelling as US Sports Sedan, which was sold in 4 door alongside more common 2 door. . -- Last edit: 2012-03-16 04:55:32 |

The guy with the sign has written "WIR LIEBEN SIE" all in uppercase letters, so we don't know if he's saying "We love them" or a formal version of "We love you". -- Last edit: 2014-11-20 13:49:14 |
