Kevin 3 Posted August 11, 2008 Report Share Posted August 11, 2008 It's barely a sales pitch for a used car lot , actually . And , God bless him , McCain broke and spoke against the U.S. He'd have to ride a very high horse to call others unpatriotic , if that is going to be part of the game .

c_s_1987 0 Posted August 12, 2008 Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 oh, sorry, I see the English title is All Quiet on the Western Front by Erich Maria Remarque it tells the story of a young soldier in the trenches of WWI war is no fun Yeah, it's a great book. Though it was made into a rather average movie starring actors with strong American accents playing German soldiers. I didn't realise it had a slightly different title in Germany.

Farin 2 Posted August 12, 2008 Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 the German title is "Im Westen Nichts Neues" - lit. "Nothing New in the West" that was actually the (semi)official standard message for the daily reports to the generals, telling them that the frontline in the trenches didn't move significantly - but which greatly downplayed the daily horror of the foot soldiers obviously... I once saw a very old movie of it (from the 1930s maybe?) is that the one you mean, or is there a newer one? Link to post Share on other sites
MarcM 0 Posted August 12, 2008 Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 There was a version made in the 70's I think. John Boy Walton was the lead. Link to post Share on other sites

Kevin 3 Posted August 13, 2008 Report Share Posted August 13, 2008 Brooke had the misfortune to be the Brittany Spears of her time ( parents and all ) - and the wits had to launch something at her . Brezhenev wasn't too far from people's minds though . Link to post Share on other sites

MuzikTyme 0 Posted August 15, 2008 Report Share Posted August 15, 2008 So what's wrong with her eyebrows? Holy eyebrow! One time, in my life posting here, someone, I pray... will understand the simplicity of a bushy eyebrow, regardless whether or not it is sexy or merely needs clipping not to mention that convention isn't necessarily cool. But, I'm an old man, what do I know? Thanks!!! Link to post Share on other sites

MuzikTyme 0 Posted August 15, 2008 Report Share Posted August 15, 2008 I think that'd be a great idea. I can't understand why it was locked anyway. I've tried to unlock it but I'm to assume that whoever closed it has the key to unlock it. I tried. Maybe it will become available soon. Link to post Share on other sites
