So ... Germany has lost another president.

Second one who resigned in a row in fact. I'm all for democracy and stuff, but let's just get a king or queen as head of state. They do pretty much the same thing as the German president (not much of any consequence ...) but they don't have the tendency to give up at the first sign of trouble. I mean, could you imagine the Queen walking out of Buckingham Palace because "Uh, the Daily Fail talks shit about me and it's all so unfaaaaaair!" ?! Nope!

But, on to something nice ... pretty much the only aspect of carnival in Germany that I don't ignore. (It's like an unhole-y donut with a jam filling)
Happy Weekend!
