Aaaargh!

Noch gar nicht erwähnt - kaum hatten wir das Visum, kaum waren wir zuhause und kaum haben wir unseren Post hier reingestellt, kam ein Anruf..."Hello, this is Mr. Scott speaking, may I talk to Mr. Hofling please?"
Hm...aha, das Konsulat also..."Well, Mr. Hofling...I got bad news for you..."
Wie, was? Mir ist das Herz in die Hose gerutscht...was, wenn das Visum nun doch nicht durch ist? Was, wenn es nicht klappt mit den USA? Wir haben zugegebermaßen schon vorher gescherzt, wir würden dann eben woanders hin. Australien, Südamerika oder so. Aber das geht doch nicht! Wir wollen doch in die USA, und immerhin haben wir schon unseren Blog!
"We got some problems with your fingerprints..."
Hä?
"I think you have to come again to take them once more", und dann noch in gebrochenem Deutsch, "don`t worry, ihrrr Visum ist dursch...wir brrrauchen nur ihre Fingerprints."
Puh, nochmal Glück gehabt.

Ich war also diesen Montag wieder im Konsulat. Hatte einen "In-House"-Termin, musste aber die ganze Prozedur nochmal durchmachen. Wieder eine Nummer ziehen, wieder durch die Sicherheitsschleuse, wieder in der Halle warten. Ich habe mir eine Stunde lang die Flaggen der 50 Bundesstaaten reingezogen - und tatsächlich habe ich es bei einem kleinen Test danach geschafft, stolze 40 Staaten auswendig aufzuzschreiben!
Tja, und jetzt haben die Amis also einen ganzen Katalog von meinen Fingerprints, linke Hand, rechte Hand, beide Daumen. Und von mir aus bekommen sie jede Woche den aktuellen Abdruck per Post zugeschickt...meine Fingerprints im Winter, im Sommer, nasse Fingerprints, Fingerprints im Handschuh, im Handstand, Fingerprints in blau und grün...hauptsache, es geht endlich los! ;-)


"Prrrrressen Sie, Mr. Hofling, Prrrressen! Sie mussen die Druck auf die Finger machen...pressen!"
"...ja, ich mach ja was ich kann..."
"Herzlichen Gluckwunsch Mr. Hofling, sie haben soeben zwei gesunde Fingerprints in die Computer gebracht!"

  1. Hello! I know this is somewhat off topic but I was wondering which blog platform are you
    using for this website? I'm getting fed up of Wordpress because I've had issues with hackers and I'm looking at alternatives for another platform. I would be great if you could point me in the direction of a good platform.

  11. I was curious if you ever thought of changing the layout of your blog?

    Its very well written; I love what youve got to say. But maybe you
    could a little more in the way of content so people
    could connect with it better. Youve got an awful lot of text for only having 1 or 2
    pictures. Maybe you could space it out better?

  12. Today, I went to the beach front with my children. I found a sea shell and gave it to my 4
    year old daughter and said "You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear."
    She put the shell to her ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear.

    She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is totally off
    topic but I had to tell someone!
