I had a friend tell me a story about Namibia once, he was out travelling the world in '95 or so. Apparently, in Windhoek, it was still then the habit to have nice sing-alongs in bars with good songs. Like 'Die fahne hoch', 'Panzerlied' and 'Deutschland Erwache'.

Bryant died in January, Maradona only a few days ago. I guess the picture was mostly done by the time he had to add El Diego.

Habitat is gone? Also, they should have put Herman Cain in without a mask.

Also, they should have put Herman Cain in without a mask.

He's one of the millions of Covid victims represented by the marks on the floor.
