If I knew anything about foreign policy, I’d be working in Washington, D.C. instead of chasing $200 bucks from porn deadbeats with marijuana problems. More about that later.

But, as you check out the various stories about Fabian Thylmann coming out of Germany, you arrive at a couple of conclusions. The Germans probably lost all those World Wars because they couldn’t speak English. [Ever see an English translation of German that made any sense?]

More significantly, the authorities over there are throwing everything they can at Thylmann and Manwin with its gazillions including, now, the issue of underage access to free tubes.

While Fabian with his hoodies and education may be a master of the fashion statement and algorithms, when it comes to business sense, the kid’s a boy scout.

Everyone knows to stay in big business like that you pay off people.

Evidently Fabian wasn’t kicking back to the right ones. That’s the problem in a nutshell. I know it’s an oversimplification, but in the real world it’s the squeaky wheel that still gets the grease and the itchy palm that gets the most scratching.

Could be it’s too late, but unless Manwin starts delivering thick envelopes to a guy named Heinrich it’s all over for them.
