Christmas Party With the company
Michael Christmas tree, Christmas tree, Christmas tree. I can't stand hearing it anymore! First, you drag a green monster into the house, and just touching the prickly trunk feels disgusting! And after a week, when all the magic is over, you throw it out. Crunch, crunch, crunch, go the needles in the vacuum cleaner. It's quite an ordeal.
Yes, my dear friends, it's me! My dear Neanderthals, for this letter to reach you before Christmas, the galley slaves have to row like crazy, the brutal stagecoach driver whips the emaciated horses, and the mail carrier's tongue is already hanging out! Well, well, folks, you need an email. Preferably, of course, from AOL in Americaaaa. I can't say it often enough.
The Christmas party with AOL was at "Planet Hollywood" in San Francisco. It's a $15-burger joint, similar to the Hard Rock Cafe, except instead of musician trophies, they have movie memorabilia hanging around (there's one in Munich too, I know, I know, but this letter is also for the rural population and even the North German diaspora). For the older generation, let me briefly explain that the Hard Rock Cafe is a place where the lazy youth hang out and recklessly spend their pocket money on overpriced hamburgers! And as decoration, there's stuff hanging around that famous musicians have discarded - guitars and such. Naturally, as a staunch opponent of the Hard Rock Cafe, I've never been to "Planet Hollywood" in my life, and surprisingly, right at the entrance, our beloved Arnie Schwarzenegger jumped out at me from a display case - as Terminator II! "I'm a Terminator! I was made for destruction!"
In any case, AOL had reserved a part of Planet Hollywood with its own bar and such, where you could order as much as you wanted ("Another Margarita, please!" "Agaiiinn??"). Fortunately, the subway took us home.
And I bought a new bike! A mountain bike from the brand 'GT', model 'Backwoods', an ultra-cool piece with a super lightweight aluminum frame that's about 5cm thick, with 21 gears and a snazzy click-shift system. Now Angelika and I have two bikes and can finally tackle the long-awaited Golden Gate Bridge crossing next weekend.
