Newbie, looking for France and Germany
 

Sorry to crash in on you guys. I came with one thing in mind and have
found another.

Is there anything in particular that I should look for in a s-w radio,
in order to tune in France and Germany?

I used to be able to get Germany at night with a s-w radio that I used
to have, and I would like to try again.

I'm doing this to try to strengthen language skills. Does anyone know if
any news broadcasts are aimed at America in French or German that may
use a simplified vocabulary?

Thank you.

WTF? I don't understand you at all, but what the hey. How about a pint
of Guinness, and toast the Queen?

If I want Guinness, I can go to Fenian's Pub or that other Irish Pub
(Bonney,, whatever it T'IS?, it is a new Irish Pub in Flowood) or some
of the other booze joints or stores around here.Thingy is though, I quit
the booze in February 2009, over a year ago.

Oh, don't tell me you don't know the Irish toast to the Queen,
particularly if you're drinking Guinness. You've must have heard it ten
thousand times or more.

An Englishman, a Scotsman, and an Irishman walk into a pub together.
They each buy a pint of Guinness. Just as they are about to enjoy
their creamy beverages, a fly lands in each of their pints and gets
stuck in the frothy head.

The Englishman pushes his beer away in disgust.

The Scotsman fishes the fly out and continues drinking as if nothing
happened.

The Irishman also picks the fly out of his drink, but then holds it
out over the beer and yells, 'Spit it out! Spit it out, you little
*******!'

Two women from England were visiting Scotland.They are walking along and
they see a drunk guy stagger out of a pub and he staggered over to a
tree to take a leak, he fell down, passed out.One of the women removed a
ribbon from her hair and she tied it around his pecker.When he woke up
he said, Well Laddie, I don't know where you have been, but I am glad
you won First Prize.

An American in London was out hitting the pubs with friends until the
wee hours of the morning. When the pubs closed he couldn't find his
friends, so he decided to walk back to his hotel. As he walked along in
the cold, he suddenly had an irresistible desire to pee. Looking around,
he saw an alley, and he stepped into it's shadows. He had just gotten
his pants unzipped, when a "bobbie" walked up to him and said."You can't
do that here sir, come with me". The "bobbie" lead him down the alley to
where there was a tall fence. Pulling one of the boards aside, the
"bobbie" said."Just in here sir". The American stepped into a beautiful
garden of tall trees, flowers, and a pond reflecting the crescent moon.
As he was relieving himself, he was struck by the beauty of the
grounds. Having finished his business, he stepped back through the fence
to the waiting "bobbie". "Is that what you call English hospitality?".
asked the American. "Naw", said the bobbie,"It's what we call the French
embassy".
