  1. it is a uphill racing And NO, NEVER!!! My wife wouldn't allow me to drive. She would drive herself. She was born 3km from the race track, her grandpa was state champion in bike racing, she was the monkey at sidecar racing as a teen, her dad owned a bike repair and sale shop and theres were we met. ANd then we noticed that we studied same university, she medicine and me philosophy (mathematics was part of philosophy faculty), so miles away. Perhaps you could beat my Royal Enfield with its sidecar and having a Diesel engine with just 1.2l iitre fuel consumption per 100km. Used it for years to drive to work, bring kids to school on the way. Now with kids and ME being older it is replaced in autumn by a Yamaha Niken. Saver on forests roads with wet autumn leaves says my wife. aeh rather this with all terrain wheels and blue. Blue is a colour you wön't see in autumn in a forest. So easier to being seen.
  2. For me it wasn't Formula1, it ws hill climbing. The race hill was just 30minutes drive away and Monaco is SOOOOO expensive. The first car I bought from my own money was a third hand NSU Prinz TTS. A light weight 3,8metre small car with a 83hp engine in the rear. I tuned my engine to 110hp. Allmost all my car mechanic knowledge is from this time. I sold it to buy a bike. Luckily I found it decades later in the garage of the widow of the former buyer. Bought the my first Prinz back. The small shape and weight made it very agile. Much more agile than the Mustang of a friend. On straights no chance, but my Prinz was way better to catch up speed again in curves. Add that the curve speed of my Prinz was also higher. Guess you can't do this with a sportscar of same time period. Even modern aomputer aided ones do hard.
  3. I mentioned Spaghetti all assasina in the related word game: watery tomato sauce with a bit chilli heated in a pan. The spaghetti are boiled in this sauce till they are al dente, lightly brown burned and have a caramelzed layer from the sugar in the tomatos. I am not using spaghetti but my own sort of Spätzle. The dough includes egg and curcuma in my case. It is normally cut direct into a pot with boiling water. In my killer noodle variant I replace the tomato with sweet onions, bear garlic, miso and red pepper. Instead water I use a selfmade fruit wine. Caramelizing the sauce produces umani taste. The pepper I use is not as hot as chilli but fits to the sweetness of the onions and the fruit-taste note of the wine remains. Using fresh dough the time for boiling is shortened since the noodles don't have to suck up water first. While the assasina variant produces a layer without pieces on the noodles, onion pieces will remain in our case but stick to the selfcut Spätzle. Bear garlic produces way less smell than normal garlic but nearly same taste. The recipe is liked by our oldest grandchild whop is still a bit young for chilli. Never thought that fr u I t y has the auto-censor kick in. For a non native english speaker the auto-censoring is a way to learn evil words it seems;)
  4. gold -> spaghetti all assasina Murderous assassin spaghetti. I use selfmade noodles with eggs and curcuma in the dough (they are more golden). And the iron cast pan I bought at army times decades ago. The name is probably because the inventor was using a lot of chilli
  5. Ghost of Christmas Future -> Rare Exports Deep frozen in a hill live the real Santa Claus's. Murderous deadly beasts. A mining compamy releases them and they start to kill. The local people fight them and afterwinning they sell them as ' Rare Exports'
  6. toy story -> goalie Our oldest was 6 and playing goalie at football She placed her doll as a mascot in her goal. The boys of both teams cried: 'Look, she is playing with dolls.' End of the doll as a toy. Wonder why Pixar never made such a story into a movie ;)
  7. all aboard -> glacier express We were students when we married. Our honeymoon was done checking cheap last minute offers. We had luck and got a trip through switzerland including the glacier express. Repeated the travel at our 20th anniversary of marriage.
  8. recliner -> sleeper train When I have a distant meeting early in the morning I often travel by night with train. Luckily my company pays 1st class. I am too old and tall for 2nd. But as a student the ticket for 3 month 2nd class whole europe for 300 German Mark was a bargain. Did scandinavia up to the north cap.
  9. chocolate -> Sauerkraut Molecular kitchen reaches that Sauerkraut boosts the chocolate taste. I have a recipe for a chocolate cake but I am too lazy to translate it. So I found this english page: https://iambaker.net/chocolate-sauerkraut-cake/
  10. We of the Monkeys -> me Stupid virus disease during my puperty affected my grrowing. Arms are longer than normal, legs are shorter than normal for my torso. So I got nicknames like Cheetah, Monkey and later when I was real tall King But king was justshort for king Kong. But this body form was great for swimming (fastest in school in butterfly) and being a goalie.
  11. Autumn breaks. There was a week with travelling funfair/carneval, street concerts and shops opened on suday in my birthtown Wetzlar. So the twins spend the weekend at my brother who lives in my birthhouse. And then early sunday morning a call: a bomb exploded in a luckily empty restaurant. Luckily on the street to railway station and not where my brother lives in the historical part of the town. It is not clear yet if terrorist or family clan fight between rivaling restaurants is the reason. I I Was with our firefighters ata neighbout town. House burned down, I dead, 3 injured. Terrible weekend...
  12. compact -> Rollei 35S My first self bought camera - analogue - but still very very good in doing street monochrome shots. Especially since it is analogue it doesn't fall under the european laws for doing digital photos of people in the public. It is still working. My other analogue I often use is a Leica M5 from my grandpa.
  13. I remember it as a nice bosskiller on high levels. Modify disease for single target high x% lifeleech damage and use totems to go below the trigger point. Each tick of disease robbing 33% health, 3 ticks and every affected boss was gone. Adter the nerf disease was no longer a total overpowered kill every thing 2 screens away any longer. But it never was useless, if used on high levels.
  14. vocals -> harmonica As a teen we often did campfires on a hill top. Often we noticed that everyone was too lazy to carry a heavy ghettoblaster all the way up. But there was the clever Chattius (with a terrible voice) who had a harmonica or a jew drum. And all the pretty girls with nice voices were sitting next to me and sung. Forget Mick Jagger and his voice and performance, in my youth the harmonica was the way to go. Piano man --- it is a harmonica and not a piano ;)
  15. gloria vanderbilt -> Benetton You could buy clothes and could be sure that there was something fitting to the colours years after. And the store was just 200metres from my student home. 3 trousers, 3 t-shirts, 9 combinations. Even their Formula1 car with Schuhmacher shared the colours
