Comrade Heinz Klinger volunteered as a "Helfer Der Volkspolizei" at the celebration of this important highlight. The atmosphere was good as decided.
Suddenly Heinz sinks to the ground and panic breaks out. His face is dripping with red liquid and we suspect the worst.
Doctors and some police officers quickly find the perpetrator. It turns out to be a man who just bought a Grilletta. He was about to spray it with tomato sauce when he misaimed and accidentally sprayed the tomato sauce in Heinz's face.
The attacker said sorry and was just about to start eating the evidence when the police arrested him and took him away.
Never forget this insidious attack on our democracy! In the end, capitalism is always to blame for all the evil in our world.
Never let fascism win!
The slipover was unharmedThe fine armband also escaped unscathed.The Grilletta that the terrorist used during the attack (Police picture). Oh what a mess! Think how badly this could have ended if the authorities had not acted so quickly.
Oh mein Gott, there have been so many administrative problems here at the department lately. Almost all work has been at a standstill for several months due to a gigantic computer problem. Data experts have been fighting like animals around a clock to find a solution. Everyone is now dead tired and just wants to go home for a long sleep.
But this morning something amazing happened. I was in the dining room eating cucumber and margarine when Bärbel from department D34 came by. She noticed that I had a yellow paper stuck to my gluteal muscle.
We examined it together (the note) and realized that the super secret password to this website was written on that note. I blushed when I realized I had been sitting on it for two months. Cheers and thanks for helping us with the computer problem, Bärbel!
Other things going on right now is that we've hired a sound engineer and he's now trying to get all those tape reels spinning.
Da haben ja wir den Salat! Please do not show the password written on it because it is top secret.
I am worried about what Ronald Trump is up to right now. He wants to build a wall around the US of A. That is a bad thing I would say. We East-Germans know a lot about that because we invented the Wall.
We call it Mauer Power.
It is a powerful method to make a society more happy by stopping people from eating hamburgers, wearing blue-jeans, driving bad western cars, smuggling banana ice-cream etc. Refugees from the West are desperate to get in to us here in East Germany. Because of that we had to build our Wall in 1961. That helped us a lot. It fenced out everything that was bad in life.
But Ronald Trump has a completely wrong approach to walls. He wants to stop the american people from leaving US of A.
That is not good.
I know that he will lose this battle against his own people.
This morning i felt a bit sad because today it is exactly 60 years since the Operation Groza (Thunderstorm) should have taken place.
Operation Groza was an invasion plan made by Comrade Stalin. The idea was to turn the entire Europe into a gigantic communistic paradise. Every single piece of land from the French coast down to the Japanese Sea would have been under our control.
But that son of a schädel-bitten guy Adolf Hitler came by and destroyed our plan. We only managed to take Berlin.
A similar thing happened Spain in 1937. Our comrades wanted the Spanish people to be comrades but a clown named Franco came by and stopped the entire event.
I get a bit sad when I think about the fact that Stalin only wanted to give the people of Europe complete freedom in a socialistic way.
I have been working around the clock here at my desk at the IFA Wartburg office in Potsdam, struggling hard with copywriting and graphic design.
Luckily my new Robotron computer is a big help.
I have also been looking for suitable western newspapers to put the ad in. It is very difficult to find the right media when there are more than one media out there.
It´s much more easy to advertise in DDR.
Finally I decided to go for an advertising campaign in the music magazine Persona Non Grata:
This day is a very special day for all of us here at VEB Potsdam Music. We have been singing and dancing and celebrating the entire day. The reason for our joy is that something quite amazing have happened. The newspaper Ruhr Nachrichten just reported that The song Agrarwissenschat Im Dienste des Sozialismus have reached number seven at the charts!
That is really amazing because I am the person who drives the tractor that can be heard at the end of the song. I’m overjoyed by the fact that I have participated in the making of this huge success. It is like beeing in the middle of a hurricane of love, actually.
It´s going to be difficult to sleep tonight. I might have to go to Tanzhalle Moskau for some Vodka and cucumber sandwiches.
Heinz Klinger and Rolf Kempinski met the journalist Michael Pilz from Die Welt after the IFA Wartburg performance at The Treptower Glashaus in Berlin 1/4 1999.
Die Welt is a newspaper that reaches around 300.000 readers in West Germany.
We East Germans have noticed how people in the west tends to get more socialistic when it comes to music.
To make everything as nice and socialistic as possible, we served our standardized stage buffet consisting of radish and cabbage and a lot of distilled water for all the thirsty comrades in the audience.
We all know how hard it is to be outspoken about space and food. Sometimes it feels like an invisible elephant is standing in the middle of the room seeking for your fruit bowl.
To put it quite blunt: Space and food are two different topics. Still we have problems to discuss this matter in an honest way.
So what my work has been evolving around the last weeks is how to communicate this as clear as possible and how to tell people about this in such a way that they don´t get offended and run away.
What I came up with, is this diagram that shows the wheel of food together with our mother Earth surrounded by Sigmund Jähn flying by in a spaceship. They are both flying around in space having food on board but the earth is round.
