re: #297 Cato the Elder

And yes, I do speak all those dialects.

1) Good stuff. Thank you.
2) The last one reminded me of the German proficency tester at Ft Huachuca and a friend of mine - the tester was from Berlin & the soldier, like most US Army troopers, spoke a very Bavarian version of German. “Accent? You don’t have an accent, you have a throat disease!” She signed off on his rating anyway :)
3) Nena’s 99 Luftballons is a much better song in the original German than that botched monstrostity of an English translation
4) Wish I could remember my German better
