I might as well quit trying and just go home and watch reruns.
Hogan's Heroes is my rerun of choice. Its main point is to show that the evil, corrupt, and powerful Germans were incompetent fools. The real world should be more like Hogan's Heroes. I recently watched its episode "The Antique" (first aired 1969-12-12), in which prisoner-of-war Hogan bamboozles camp commandant Klink into shipping coded cuckoo clocks to Paris, Le Havre, Cherbourg, Brussels and Amsterdam. Unfortunately the episode doesn't mention that the clocks' time settings are already OK because the Germans had imposed German time on all these areas. So I shouldn't link to it from tz-art.html, unfortunately. http://hh.wikia.com/wiki/The_Antique
