That makes one. Maybe two if you count RFK, Jr.Mark Penn (former Clinton adviser) for having the guts to speak up, good for him.
Today the 189th Munich Oktoberfest has started. Prices of 1 Liter Beer in 2024 is between 13,60 - 15,30€.
As usual the beer tents open 09.00 am but no beer must be served until the official opening "Barrel Tapping" by the Oberbürgermeister of Munich. At 12.00 Munich Mayor Dieter Reiter required two strikes (which is brilliant and important data, if you are German) to get the Beer running from the barrel.
Than traditionally a salute is fired and than finally, finally the beer may get served ....
This years record for getting alcohol poisoning goes to an amercan tourist, she required medical treatment today at 2.21 pm. German local Radio Stations traditionally take bets on which time the first Oktoberfest visitor requires treatment. In case you win you get a handfull of vouchers for the beer tent of your choice - billiant.
FC Bayern München played Werder Bremen in todays Saturday soccer game and butchered Bremen 0:5. I Prost to that.
Good weekend to everybody

October is a great month for horror aficionados. "Terrifier 3" is coming out. Svengoolie double features on Saturday night. They are playing "Halloween", "The Shining" and some other horror classics on the big screen at our local artsy theatre. I watched the first couple episodes of Grotesquerie. It has a very AHS feel.Grotesquerie on FX; holy smokes, two episodes in and I'm hooked, it's the movie "Seven" on steroids, talk about pushing the envelope.................Doug, you'd love this.
Not to mention in 5 days, it's "Shocktober", with loads of horror movies on TV to celebrate Halloween, my second favorite month of the year.
Yeah, I first thought Grotesquerie was another AHS installment, but it's not.October is a great month for horror aficionados. "Terrifier 3" is coming out.

Didn't see any picturesque Frauleins but here are some pics nevertheless. My former squadron the 7th Special Ops Sqdn, MC-130s, had a reunion in Dayton, OH. We spent a wet Saturday at Octoberfest. We had our own piper who played during intermission. We're kind of a boisterous bunch.Would love to see some pictures of it

Are when he got caught in an outright lie, "I misspoke". I will say this I only watched about 20 minutes of the debate but it was kinda nice that they weren't mf-ing each other all night." I can be a knucklehead at times"....................LMFAO!!
What is with all that pointing and gyrating and bowing this guy does? He reminds me of Tommy Boy. I keep expecting him to split his jacket in back "Fat guy in a little coat."" I can be a knucklehead at times"....................LMFAO!!
