SPEAKING GERMAN IN TEXAS

Postby eightymesh » Thu Dec 15, 2011 6:56 am

In Texas there is a town called New Braunfels , where there is a large
German-speaking population.
One day, a local rancher driving down a country road noticed a man using
his hand to drink water from the rancher's stock pond.
...
The rancher rolled down the window and shouted: "Sehr angenehm! Trink das
Wasser nicht. Die kuehe haben darein geschissen."
Which means: "Glad to meet you! Don't drink the water. The cows have shit
in it."

The man shouted back: "I'm from New York and just down here campaigning
for Obama's health care plan. I can't understand you. Please speak in
English."

The rancher replied: "Use both hands."
"As long as I am an American citizen and American blood runs in these veins I shall hold myself at liberty to speak, to write, and to publish whatever I please on any subject." – Elijah Parish Lovejoy (1802-1837)
