it's things like this that may help extinguish my irrational distaste for Germans.

I'm telling you. Let me show you just how cool Germany can be. I think you'd be surprised just how wonderful it is. Besides, you're Italian. What the hell is your problem? How quickly we forget our unholy alliances...

i did date a south african redhead who spoke lovely german (and french, italian and, of course, afrikans), and chided me often for my psychosis. i'm sure if she was really serious about it, she could have used some sort of positive vocal reinforcement.

yay germany. of course, these are the same people who loved that osbourne kid's singing, and let us not forget the glories of hasselhof's voice. (funny, though, because i lived with a german girl in dublin who had no idea of her fellow country people's love of his singing, and thought i was crazy or making it up... until we saw 'i am my own wife' and it was referenced there too.) but any country(/ies) that allows - perhaps supports - a transvestite of such extreme peculiarity can't be all bad.
(by the way, 'i am my own wife' is going to be in the u.s. on a limited tour next year. it's fantastic. go see it.)

This South African: her name wasn't Ginger or something like that, was it? Because that would be strange...

I think redheads named Ginger are cruel, cruel redundant jokes on the world, and have no place in mine.
