This video clip is specially for my friend D. in Alaska. She was complaining about being tired of winter, particularly the very long, cold winters they have up there.
D., I hope this cheers you up. It certainly made me laugh out loud!

Schadenfreude:
From Avenue Q, the hilarious traveling broadway show that explains the hard lessons of life in a Sesame Street meets South park manner.
GARY AND NICKY:
Schadenfreude!
GARY COLEMAN:
People taking pleasure in your pain!
NICKY:
Oh, Schadenfreude, huh?
What's that, some kinda Nazi word?
GARY COLEMAN:
Yup! It's German for "happiness at the misfortune of others!"
NICKY:
"Happiness at the misfortune of others." That is German!
Thought you'd appreciate the humor. :D
Too funny... :-)
I look at that and all I can think is "Ow! Ouch! Ooooh! Yeah, and that one perfectly illustrates why my physical therapist would strangle me if I tried to take up downhill skiing."
Literally, she said "You can ski, absolutely, as long as you promise me that you'll never fall down!"
