Who complains, runs!

Because luck can’t just be on every street

It is reassuring that not all attempts to twist reality to the point where even the last piece of nonsense is accepted as truth are successful. The Koblenz Higher Regional Court recently decided that the slightly raised manhole cover is not to blame if someone damages their Ferrari on it. For example, a man sued a municipality for damages because he damaged his Ferrari F40 on a municipal road when he drove over a manhole cover. He found: The community should have eliminated the danger or at least pointed out the danger with signs! The court found: If you roar through the streets with 12.5 centimeters of ground clearance, please keep your eyes open instead of complaining when it crashes!

Two police officers wide-eyed during an operation in the Kyffhäuser district in Thuringia. When they got back to their car after searching a building, a billy goat had made itself comfortable in the back seat. As a police spokeswoman said, the owner of the animal had already said when the officers arrived: “Be careful, the goat likes to drive a car.” But: even if the police officers were in the mood for a jaunt with Ziegenmann: you were here on business! So the animal had to get out and be content to be a buck turned gazer.

The snowman fans in Bischofsgrün in the Fichtelgebirge have no reason to complain these days, because: Jakob is back! Volunteers had piled up tons of snow on Friday and formed an XXL snowman with shovels and a telescopic loader, as has been built in the community every year since 1985 at the carnival time. Last year the Jakobs-Bau was canceled due to the corona virus, but now “the friendly-looking Jakob with the top hat, buttons, red cheeks and a big nose” is back in Bischofsgrün. And is allowed to stand still “until the spring sun or the rain melt it”. Heartwarming! Boris Halva
