Wull thank ya Jill--Der Schtep Vater is a first generation Amerikan, son of a (I won't say it) but his parents were rigid German Jews (sticklers fer rules)--both just as inflexible and goose-steppin' as any Nazi you'd meet--"Good Germans" who'd yell at a kid (me) fer puttin' my cup on the lace doily (didn't know it was "DayCore")--Schtep…
Wull thank ya Jill--Der Schtep Vater is a first generation Amerikan, son of a (I won't say it) but his parents were rigid German Jews (sticklers fer rules)--both just as inflexible and goose-steppin' as any Nazi you'd meet--"Good Germans" who'd yell at a kid (me) fer puttin' my cup on the lace doily (didn't know it was "DayCore")--Schtep Vater's own vater ruled like a dick-tater too!
Their fambly motto is never question Author-it-Tee (pronounced like Cartman from SouthPark), and to always fall fer sorry-ass power grabs (ass grabs!) n' games about exertin' CONTROL (HE ist da King've da Castle an' the rest r' dirty rascals...'er worse--that wuz me...).
Some'a the younger Germans born post-war are far less automaton-like but the olders fell into line (and lined up--everywhere--far better than Americans whose lines 'r crooked n' messy!). I lived in Berlin fer a spell and sawr this among the eldern (older ones)--so serious, inflexible, rigid...CJ Hopkins writes about 'em too...mit relish!...
Anyway, my poor ma wuz steam rollered by Der Gut German Dok-turd (aka Satan the SchtepVater) and I'm tryin' to help mop up the mess from afar while dodgin' verbal jabs as well as the acktual ones!
Thanks agin' fer all the good wishes an' glad ya like the "grammer"! Good wishes back at'cha!
ps Wild 'bout yer MIL but not TOO much surprised cuz I had a friend that stayed in a B&B in Bavaria and a color port-rate've Unca Adolf wuz hangin' on the barn wall there! (As Gomer Pyle'd say--Surprise surprise!)
