Soccer Saturday

Saturday... last day of German Soccer major league, and the rare situation that still three clubs can win championship - VfL Wolfsburg, VfB Stuttgart and the notorious FC Bayern München. All three are playing today, but none directly against each other. Interesting maths... Anyway, it's not my kind of pie (as long as Munich looses, but that's another story).
I prefer team handball, which is much faster, rougher, scores lots more goals and involves a less narcistic type of team player. A counter in handball is a matter of split seconds, with everybody attacking, in football it's a few tiny people sprinting over an endless plain. Anyway, will be an interesting afternoon On the Balcony, with everybody in sight yelling and suffering.
...
And Wolfsburg made it! (after a glorious 5:1 victory over Werder Bremen, ouch!) Wolfsburg - which is a no-name town that grew around Volkswagen Works after WW2 - will be more or less helter/skelter...Whenever a German club defeats the multi-million giant down there in Munich, everybody except the hardcore Bayern fans is sympathetic. David & Goliath, kind of.
Other news of the day - German Constitution got 60 yrs today, and our President was re-elected as planned. Business as usual - and time for a dram at the local smokers' club.

After the club I returned to the onLine Canard scene - still trying to figure out what kind of aircraft I've seen yesterday. Had the feeling that the cockpit looked somewhat more edgy than the clear oval of the Gyroflug Speed Canard...


Finally found a few pictures of the COZY MkIV, a derivative of Burt Rutan's Long-EZ, and that looks a lot more like what I saw...
