“Some people call me Maurice because I speak of the pompatus of love.”
Bis Periskop ! Darn thing keeps popping up everywhere .
Otto! Situation report.No sign of her, captain.Finally. Set a course for Minsk.Damn.
Otto! Situation report!No trace of her.Finally! Set a course for (Minst)Verdammt! (Shouldn’t need translation)
I’m not sure what “Minst” is. Westminster, perhaps?
Remember: Mit Romney? Nein! Ohne Romney!
“Minst” is actually Minsk. The last letter is a “k”, which looks a lot like a “t” in the Fraktur font.
Thanks, runar!Say… we should let these U-boaters go. They might pop up in the fabled NW Passage!
To Minsk, or not to Minsk: That is the question.
It’ll be hard to get to Minsk, which is about 300 miles from the Baltic Sea.But they managed to get their U-Boat into lemonade pitcher in Windsor, so . . .
So happy to know that I am not the only person on earth who remembers Tom Lehrer with gratitude and glee.
Omsk, Tomsk, Minsk, Pinsk……reminds me of an very old Bootsie and Snudge (or was it the Army Game). Doubt if they showed in the US.
Makes me want to poison pigeons in the park.
Considering all the water-filled objects that periscope has come up out of, Queenie should be very careful in the bathroom.
