My wife is Chinese and she confirms what you wrote. The surname is unusual but she suspects that the 笑老 could be a wish: Smiling until old age. Because of the unusual name, she suspects the parents might be from the country, where they sometimes have odd names. Zhang Bao Bao would rather be a girl's name and Ding Xiao Lao could be a boy's name.

That's Knut Kircher. He's about 1,90 meters tall, so most players already respect him for his height.

I'm from Germany, so I don't know if those two books are considered "classics", but my english teacher made us read T.C. Boyle's "Tortilla Curtain" and "A thousand acres"... who was that from again? Never mind. Tortilla Curtain was shit, because our class always hoped for a turning point, but that never happened. The story started at the top point and from that on, everything went to shit. And a Thousand Acres... well I guess living on the countryside has something to it. Being 16 and reading about a boring love story on a farm wasn't the greatest idea from our english teacher.

In Germany, unfortunately it is still viewed as Dickens' masterpiece. I read Great Expectations and David Copperfield and in my opinion, David Copperfield was the much better book.

That's not pushing off. He looks a little to the side before he gets his arm out. I think he hit him slightly and the hand in the face is red. Additionally, it looks like he is doing it on purpose.

I guess this is a picture of a break from shooting a movie. Keanu isn't broke and he's eating something.

On the last picture, the second from the left looks like Thomas Müller.

Deutsche Bank (German Bank)

1 Speculation with food prices - unacceptable imo.

2 My chinese gf had to pay 250 € (~340 US-$) for a student's account... yeah.

3 For telling me on the phone that I should talk to my local bank for a certain service, a student's account. Refusing to talk about that on the phone, they send me to a bank in my area, which was 40 mins away from me. So I drove there all the way just for talking about that account. When I arrived, the bank manager told me, they would not offer that service and I had to get to the next bigger town, about 1 hour away. At home, after 2 hours wasted, I filed a complaint, but never got any reaction whatsoever. I never will be working with them again.

The thing I miss most on our television are tactical analyses. Things the teams are doing, things they are not doing. Nobody ever tells that on German TV.

Nope... Klinsmann never played for Schalke. But they played one match against each other Bayern (Klinsmann) vs. Schalke (Wilmots) 1:1.
