From my last trip to Germany

Graffiti in the Aldi Sued parking lot:

Behind the cars, not crossed out is 'Jetzt' (now)

And because we were stuck in traffic and it amused me:

If you like to lookup plates in Germany to see where they come from, try here. One often sees 'suck' plates on the A3 near Cologne as this combo comes from Rhein-Sieg-Kreis / Siegburg.

According to locals in my area, which happens to be Rhein-Sieg, the "SU" stands for "Sau unterwegs": a puerile joke I've heard many times...

Somehow I missed to learn most of these in German class. ;-)
