THE FREEBODY-CULTURE

Very honored Mr. Chief-Editor,

I have the outeachothersetting in the Southgerman Paper about the English-teaching in Germany followed and I want now my mustard to it give. To make it short, it hangs me to the throat out, and therefore want I say something about your wonderful city. Mainthingly, find I Munich traffic-politically unreached. I sat myself in New York in the greatroom-flystuff, and eight hours later am I in your gemoodly flyport Riem. Then went it in only 15 minutes and the faststreet to the Maryplace, where I with many with-humans the Bellgame on the Guesshouse saw. And then the many buyhouses in the Buyinger Street! I could my dollars not fast enough outgive! In the English Garden I saw me your freebody-culture on. I love German culture. Suchwhat have we in Central Park not. What makes it, when they not English can? I say always: Who it not in the head has, must it in the legs have. And have they on the Ice-brook legs! A city with so many goodoutlooking women would itself not the head thereover break, how they in the upperschool strangelanguages underright. Like your Chancellor Helmut Cabbage would I say: That must we outsit, equal what Francis Joseph Ostrich wants.

The jumbo jet is just coming into an Airport in Toronto on its final approach. The pilot comes on over the intercom.

This is Capt Johnson. Were on our final descent into Toronto. I want to thank you for flying with us today, and I hope you enjoy your stay in Toronto. He forgets to switch off the intercom. The whole plane can now hear the conversation from the cockpit. The co-pilot says to the pilot, Well skipper, watcha gonna do in Toronto? Now all ears in the plane are listening in to this conversation.

Well, says the skipper, first Im gonna check into the hotel and take a crap. Then Im gonna take that new stewardess out for supper, you know, the one with the huge tits. Im gonna wine and dine her , take her back to my room, and shag her all night.

Everyone in the plane is trying to get a look at the new stewardess. Shes so embarrassed that she runs from the back of the plane to try and get to the cockpit to turn the intercom off. Halfway down the aisle, she trips over an old ladys bag and down she goes. The old lady leans over and says, No need to run, dear, hes gotta take a shit first!
