Celebration: St. Martin's Day
"The food traditionally eaten on the day is goose. According to legend, Martin was reluctant to become bishop, which is why he hid in a stable filled with geese. The noise made by the geese betrayed his location to the people who were looking for him."
So we basically send our kids out with a stick to give the silly sods a hearty welcome. Then we eat.

Music Video: Das Mauer Power
"Das Mauer Power (recorded 1989 by IFA Wartburg) is a song that explains how powerful a concrete wall can be. For many years, this video was impossible to broadcast due to migration problems from the DDR picture system RiesenAlpha2000 to modern video formats. Now, Das Mauer Power has been converted to SuperBeta. The video will be broadcasted worldwide during the "20 jahre Deutsche Demokratische Republik ohne Mauer"-Jubiläum the 9th of november 2009." - IFA Wartburg
