First let’s start with some private thinks: they had to change the antibiotics for Dad because he was resistant to them(which is probably caused by the MRSA he had a few years ago) and also he’s got depressions sometimes, no wonder after a so long time laying there. At least yesterday eve he was feeling a bit better and is of the oxygen. But he wants that I take care of certain document’s which is not a good sign. But, as I’ve heard, he was making jokes with one nurses this morning(must have been a very pretty one). I hope that he feels better this eve.

Hello Hedi, I received your wedding anniversary picture and printed it for Mom. She was really surprised, to see how your grand-kids have grown.

Well, and now something "new" about Germany and that crazy EU-Politicians. First the want to but a smoking ban on official buildings(which is, at least in my eyes, okay), and now they also want that again for restaurants and bars. Well, I know that we had a few restaurants and one bar here in Berlin, but except of one restaurant they all went bankruptcy. I only can ask you why did it happen? They had enough promotion. But the customers didn’t came- and I don’t mean only the smoking customers, even the non-smokers didn’t come to join the clean smokeless air! Why? Can you give me an answer? If you have the answer, than please give a comment or mail me.

And now we even have another funny thing with the European Union. They brought out an so called "Anti-Discrimination Law". Wonderful, no more discrimination because of color, health, ethnic background or religion- but discrimination of smokers is okay, that is not discrimination- at least they say so. Isn’t it nice? I don’t thing, that the highest German court would agree with them.
