1. Good stuff

Do you want help, sympathy, or horror stories that will make your stuff look good in comparison? I've got all three on hand... Viel Gluck! :hug:

You left out the umlaut in "Glück."

So I'm lazy about learning keyboard shortcuts... I suppose it could be Glueck... looks icky, though :P

--der Augenarzt.............eye doctor (ophthalmologist)

8. Mark Twain wrote an essay entitled

"The Awful German Language". Personally, I would suggest anyone taking a German class locate a copy and read it. It's approximately eight pages long, accurate, and humurous.
