25,000 before W:O:A 2007

[Quark]

Was at the Volkshochschule today, btw.... about the Integrationskurs, had to pass a language test [a really easy one] ....and the real studies will start in mid-August.

Good luck!

I got such a letter when I first came here in Belgium. But hilarically, I had to learn Dutch! (I'm Dutch originally)



When calling to the officer in question, I said to him: "How are other people suppost to understand it if they don't read Dutch?"

The end of the story was that I didn't have to go. (as I speak the language already)

But stil the joke of the year!!!

Actually I don't HAVE to learn German (since I'm here since 2004, and the "obligatory integration rule" applies to those who arrived after 1.01.2005) - I went there on my own will, just because I'm unhappy with my skills.

And guess what, there was not much paperwork, but the people @the VHS managed to make a HUGE mess out of it. Mixed up everything that could be mixed up....

And I always thought that the Germans were known for "die Deutsche Grundlichkeit"!

That's a bummer!

Bureaucracy <sp???> is kinda the same everywhere....

A man died and went to heaven. As he stood in front of Peter at the
Pearly Gates, he saw a huge wall of clocks behind him. He asked, "What
are all those clocks?"

St. Peter answered, "Those are Lie-Clocks. Everyone on earth has a
Lie-Clock. Every time you lie the hands on your clock willmove."

"Oh," said the man, "Whose clock is that?"

"That's Nelson Mandela's. The hands have never moved, indicating that he
never told a lie."

"Incredible,"said the man. "And whose clock is that one?"

St. Peter responded, "That's Abraham Lincoln's clock. The hands have
moved twice, telling us that Abe told only two lies in his entire life."

"Where's Bush's clock?" asked the man.

"Bush's clock is in Jesus' office. He's using it as a ceiling fan."

A country doctor is suturing a laceration on the hand of an old farmer.

Old man: "All you need to know about politics is that young Bush is a post turtle."

Doctor: "Oh? What is a post turtle?"

Old man: "When yer driving down a country road, and ya come across a fence post with a turtle balanced on top? That's a post turtle. Ya know he didn't get there by himself, he don't belong there, he can't get anything done while he's up there, and you just want to help take the poor thang down."
