Even Spike TV (The Network For Men!) has that much of a clue. They run "Get your male ass to a doctor" PSAs all the time. Why? Because men don't go to the doctor on a regular basis, even when they have health insurance. Thus, they die prematurely of manageable conditions, like heart disease. Sheesh! Go troll elsewhere Patrick. If you don’t want to die young, Patrick, GO TO A FRICKIN’ DOCTOR FOR CHECKUPS! Even Spike TV (The Network For Men!) has that much of a clue.

We here in Freiburg have a "Mexican" restaurant which specializes in tequila shots for 17 year olds. Gotta see that new train station anyhow.

They do not favor equality. If they did, women would be eligible for selective service, and they would have already been on the front lines in a war. They would have been in dangerous jobs,just like men.Most of the violence in the world has been against men, not against women and children. However, women abuse children at higher rates than men, so explain that. But go ahead, continue your stereotype of the testerone-tinged "unfairly favored" men. I don't make much money, and don't know many men that do. So there. There is no governor's commission on men. Here are some quick stats: men on average,die seven years earlier than women. Men make up 49% of the population, maybe it is less now. Most of the world's violence has been against men, not women. Men make up 85% of the homeless, they are a minority of college enrollment, at least 40% in some places. Also, men were sent to war to die, the only ones eligible for selective service,they are the overwhelming majority of workplace deaths. In society, Men are held responsible for their actions, women are not. men have responsiblities, women only have rights.Men,in their roles as policemen, and firemen have stupidly died to protect many women, and children, who generally, would never protect men that same way if the roles were reversed. men invented technology, homes, planes, cars, societies, otherwise we would all still be living in caves. So I would say to anyone who thinks men as a group are holding them down: if I am building someone a luxury house,and cell phones,I am not oppressing them!By the way, you didn't earn your economic privilege and supremacy by "fighting hard" for them. Men gave these to you freely. If they did not, you would not have them. Without men existing, you would be living in a cave in the middle of nowhere, so if you don't like White men's accomplishments, go enjoy your CAVE! If you don't like the historically cruel treatment of black Americans I'd be honest and go live in another country instead of being a total hypocrite, and living off men's hard work and the work of the African slaves, and not giving anything back of equal value, like inventing something. If you don't like the taking of Native Americans' land, then leave the U.S. and stop living off their demise.Also,It is not honorable to work at a cushy job that men created for you, and then say that men denied women basic rights! You are pampered if you work at a basic job, while men worked in the coal mines, and died in workplace injuries. Also, Patriarchy is not evil, it is only men running these countries that has invented the things that make your life better. Men as a group were not selfish, women are. You don't use someone's inventions: houses, telephones, businesses,etc, and call the other pertson selfish, without giving anything back. If anything, these men were stupid for being kind, and favoring you over them. I'd rather be washing dishes, and even vacuuming, which roles women complain about, rather than dying in dumb wars! There is no comparison!... Talk about ungrateful, and pampered. If a magic wand could turn women into men, I could only imagine what they could still complain about, if they were only being consistent: You mean all the blame is now mine! I must sacrifice myself for others from now on, I am not to be protected , but to protect others! I'm being asked to fight and die for my country! Terrible! And men must listen to them complain about being "objectified" Yikes! We should all be so lucky. What a joke intellectually this country has become.Also, when Feminists say that if SOME men were not evil, there would be no need for feminism is a little like the Klan saying that if some non-whites did not go on welfare, drugs and shoot people, there would no need for racism. So Feminists, enjoy your racist and sexist exploitation of men. We men are the ones sacrificing. We are the real "second sex", not women. Bye-Bye. Feel free to post a reply.

Soooo, it was a while ago. Forever, in pop-music terms. Germany seems to have wised up since. IMDB is not clear on whether his popularity that year was primarily fueled by Bavaria, nor about whether we can cast blame towards Austria for his European singing career. Though, frankly, I can certainly think of a certain governator that Austria can be blamed for.

Well, my info. regarding Hasselhoff's singing career is old (really old, like at least 15 years old). Perhaps it was in Austria that he was so popular as a singer. I'll bet IMDB has the info. If I care to look it up. Confession - I watched "Knight Rider" every week when I was a kid. Heh. Well, my info. regarding Hasselhoff’s singing career is old (really old, like at least 15 years old).
