      They didn’t say it was being confiscated; maybe it’s just being removed to a museum or something.

          It’s funny from here, but when your neighbor has multiple hundreds of kilos of 80-year old high-explosive in his house, it becomes somewhat less amusing.

            Obviously it’s a horrible situation to be in.

            But Mel Books put it best. “Tragedy is when I get a papercut on my pinkie. Comedy is when you fall into a well and die.”

        Man, Germany has to be the fun police.
