Now This Just Isn't Funny

[Loxuru]

By the way, maybe soon, we do not need airliners any more at all.
For example, our incredible fantastic new German capital airport "BER" in Berlin was planned to open in 2011, but some "tiny" problems with German security regulations and a very little mismanagement made it necessary to rebuild some parts of this airport and now finally, it will (probably) be opened in 2021 - without any airplane traffic due to the corona-virus situation. So, this brandnew airport could become the most modern airport in the world without any noise and without any air pollution at all!

Meanwhile, I have read, the first scheduled passenger flights have started from the new Berlin Airport, yesterday.

You had me wondering if I had strayed here from an alternate universe for a moment there, PrPr. I have never seen those lyrics as the intro before. (The original sketch segues from a barber who doesn't like his job.) Is there another version with which I am not familiar?

Python did,however, provide useful tips on how to recognise trees from quite a long way away.....

The song was so popular that they reperformed it many times live and on TV and film. The Hero was sometimes a weatherman, barber, or pet-shop owner. When they recorded it for a 45, the recording was produced by George Harrison, who was big Python fan. Various imaginary trees were added in various versions.
The German version

I loved the bit about "formed a relationship with farm animals in the usual way", I wonder if it was scripted by the German producers or thought too much so cut out for English speakers?

the recording was produced by George Harrison, who was big Python fan.

Harrison went on to bankroll Life of Brian when the chairman of EMI got round to reading the script and abruptly pulled the plug, just before it went into production. The company Harrison set up, HandMade Films, made many of the classics of British cinema in the '80s.

In fact, he was in Life of Brian

I found it funny that this part with the speaker from the "off" was indeed the only German which was spoken by a native speaker of German. In all other parts a German would have remarked a non-German accent.

By the way and sorry for "foxing in" here again, but there was yesterday an internationally co-produced animal documentary (from Canada, Germany, France etc.) about "The Cleaning Crews of Nature" in my most-favourite French-German cultural TV station ARTE, which you can see here in German and French ...

Putzkolonnen der Natur - Die ganze Doku | ARTE

Opossums, Ameisen, Füchse und Geier sind die heimlichen Helden, die Berge von Abfall wegräumen, ohne dass die Menschen es überhaupt merken. Zahlreiche Forscherteams untersuchen das Leben dieser tierischen Helfer und räumen mit Vorurteilen auf. Und sie zeigen, wie sich die Tiere an das urbane...

... which starts with the remark that the rather "ugly" ants, opposums and vultures have something in common with the "beautiful" foxes. They all are "cleaners in nature" and about in the middle of this documentary, this German scientist is introduced, who said many facts I did not know before:
She is the scientific "Master of the Foxes" in Berlin and she said in this documentary that rabies (= "Tollwut" in German and this means "insane anger") was exterminated in Berlin in 1996 and all over Germany in 2008 because of the very successful vaccination campaigns in German wildlife.
So, she said, the foxes are now really no more dangerous for human beings concerning diseases and they are very useful especially in Berlin because there are also so many rabbits which are even damaging the city streets ...
around the government's quarter of Chancellor Merkel ...
and how will you fight against a rabbit plague in such a big city? You cannot shoot them in the center of a capital and you cannot poison them there. So, foxes are perfect and welcome helpers for the park gardeners and road services in Berlin.

She and her team are trying to explore and control the fox behaviour in such a city which is rather new because foxes were never before so close to the inhabitants like right now in Berlin. Her team uses GPS senders / receivers and they were surprised how different the fox territories are in size. Some are very small because the fox there seems to find everything he needs in one small place, other territories are really big and the fox there is running 15 km every night.
Counted all together, what the foxes in Berlin are right now "consuming" in rabbits, mice, rats and human leftover food, she and her team estimated the amount of spared garbage collection for the city of 30 garbage trucks loads per year - not even mentioned the use of foxes now for preventing the city from diseases possibly caused by rats or mice.
So, right now, the most Berliner seem to like "their" foxes.

Some jokes...

I imagine a few of our incredible ladies can relate to the first one, and the second cannot possibly relate to anyone we know, can it? Sure?

I can’t believe how abusive that guy is to treat his patients that way. She should really sue him for a malpractice... Any respectable psychiatrist who earned his license should have directed her to join CF as a remedy, as soon as he learns that she fancies such things.

On a slightly different tack, I had a boss when I was younger, who defined an expert as "a man from out of town"

That last one is truly terrifying! I am never flying Barbaria1 airlines again. No Moore landings like that!
