I can only imagine a mistake made perhaps because English is not my tenant's first language and his accent is pretty heavy.Yesterday he calls my manager (H and I live in Germany for his W-2 job) and says "Please have the furnace looked at,  my bill is $150 this month (apartment is under 600 sf),  I can't afford it,  It's been over $100 a month for several months".  

We looked to our neighbor on the north, Germany, where Hitler had been in power since 1933.

The Eugenicists in Germany started by rounding up the mentally ill and deformed and killing them.

I keep a German language CD on hand (love visiting Germany), Trace Adkins, Toby Keith, Some collections of Vivaldi and Mozart, one of the Mack Bolan series of books on tape and if there's a good investing book on tape I'm interested in, I'll have it as well.

I know how many children he has, all of their names, His cats names, what he wants to do with the rest of his life, what he wants to do with the money from the sale of the house, He let me try on his bulletproof vest, let me hold a piece of the berlin wall and a coin he had from Nazi Germany, ect ect. 

Gallon in Germany actual $8.08 ;).

$9.27 here in Germany today, you have good prices :).

I am a US army SGT at present and currently stationed in Germany.

Now think about Vikram working from India, and Uwe working from Germany, and Rich Weese being like Carmen Sandiego ("Where in the world is ...") - a real variety of time zones.

Adam Germany, thank you for the welcome and from one newbie to another, I feel like we have found an amazing resource and community here at BP!
