doubt it -> Schöffe

In dubio pro reo

I was one at a court mainly for agricultural, forest and wild game cases. A Schöffe used to be an expert in a field a professional jurist had not much knowledge and his vote counted as much as the one from the professional jurist.

The German law system is not based on the british one and relates back to Charlemagne. Schöffe, in Germany, a lay jurist or assessor assigned primarily to a lower criminal court to make decisions both on points of law and on fact jointly with professional jurists. A Schöffe may also sit on a higher court.

Nostalgia -> The 80's. I have very good and fond memories of the 80's. Those were the good times, good music, good TV shows, even good vibes.

80's -> radio and tape

I had a Grundig Satellite 3400 world receiver and a Uher Reportage tape recorder. Other boys bought Vespa scooters. But being able to receive all the charts from nearly every country in the world and being able to copy them in a good quality... Was a guest to nearly every party (even ones with my older sister) because I had the music before the Singles were out in Germany. Music was more impressive to girls than a Vespa.

8 track setto 38cm/s good enough for classic music, set to 4.7cm/s and you had 8 hours of nonstop music

quality -> slide projector

Having a sister who was a trained photographer and a family where everyone played an instrument, my 8-track was often used for slide-shows. Mixing all the instruments and have tracks to give signals to the 2 slide projectors... Music and changing pictures 'perfectly' synchronized.

slide projector => Giant Slides

(These were really a big fad in the 1960s.)

 

The one pictured below is a Giant Water Slide in Baytown, Texas.:JC_hurrah:

giant slides -> stone wash creek

Mix between rollercoaster and a water slide, sitting in a sort of boat which was pulled up and down and released for a dive into a lake. Latin class often combined a travel to the roman german museum with the joy park. 16 and 35C, girls from class wanted me to sit in front... laws of physics were saying me yes, because the dive wave was falling o nsecond row mainly, wet t-shirt contest

8-Track (double-tracking) -> Quality

they were cutting edge!

:D

Yes they were indeed, most cassattee players were of exeptional quality I liked and loved the staker decks most, the ones with a 6  band graphic equalizer or above, a record player, dolby noise reduction, etc. Those were the good old days of recording things onto C90 tapes. *Good times*

Jeans -> Levi. I loved all of the Levi adds, though one particular one was my favourite, but not for the reasons you might think.:lol:

Levi -> [ˈneɪkəd]

Auto censoring  made me to use this, my sis words were: sold all down to her skin

My older sis did a travel with school to Dresden in east germany before reunion. She said when walking from the youth hotel it took 5 minutes and the first east german girl asked if she would sell her western jeans. East german jeans used to be very very robust but ugly to skin, the washing machine was allways releasing blue water, ... So western jeans were 'in'. East marks were quite useless if back in the west so she did a shopping tour with the girl and exchanged the jeans for a nice dress for the prom.

Next day she was 'selling' another jeans to another girl. 6 jeans with her and she returned home bare of jeans, Adidas boots and western underwear = [ˈneɪkəd] while at the shop. But she had one more suitcase - full of dresses and shoes.

zombies -> Wiedergänger

Ever since stoneage people feared that the death would walk (gänger) again (wieder). A Hünengrab (sort of Dolmen) translates as grave of a giant. They put real big stone blocks above the grave to prevent the death to walk again. In coming times people forgot the reason for the stone blocks and thought it would be graves for giants. The nearest Hünengrab was just 3 kilometres away from me, but trees were growing through it and pushed the stones to the side. In northern germany plain land some remained undamaged.
