Sea cable: Egyptian coastguard successful!

It seems as if there are some rogue divers around who want to take Africa
offline. The Egyptian coastguard has captured 3 divers who were about to
cut the underwater line connection. As the repair of such a cable is often
very complex and expensive, the avoidance of such incidents is crucial!

Tram with bent pantograph (again!)

The new trams of Bernmobil seem to be dogged by bad luck. Again the
pantograph of one tram seems to have ensnarled itself in the powerline
and thus has been bent down. The force acting on the pantograph must
have been enormous. The pictures will proove this very spectacularly!

Such a sh*t! No toilet paper!

This reeks! Pupils of an elementary school in Saxony-Anhalt (Germany) are
from now on forced to bring their own toilet paper. Why? because some
sh*theads thought, it’s a good idea to clog the toilet by throwing in complete
toiletpaper rolls or other paper that soaks full and clogs the drain.

A bad way to start the morning…

What do Karlsplatz (Stachus) in Munich and Zytglogge in Bern have in common?
They’re both famous places as they have well-known landmarks on them.
Good point, but they have also something else in common. It can’t be the size as
Karlsplatz (Stachus) is way bigger than Zytglogge… so what can it be?
