A Thursday Tune - Scheißegal



Isabel Gülck (born 11 February 1991), known professionally as Isi Glück, is a German partyschlager singer. Since 2017, she has performed regularly at the Mega-Park in Mallorca and, in winter, at the "Kuhstall" in Ischgl.

Isabel Gülck was born on 11 February 1991 in Elmshorn, Schleswig-Holstein. After attending elementary school in Kiebitzreihe, she completed her secondary school diploma at the Jacob Struve School in Horst (Holstein). This was followed by an apprenticeship as a sports and fitness clerk, then an insurance clerk in her father's company, which she abandoned after the Miss Germany pageant. On 11 February 2012, she won the Miss Germany pageant at Europa-Park Rust. She had previously participated in the Miss Schleswig-Holstein beauty pageant, but was eliminated in the preliminary rounds. She was later crowned Miss Ashampoo. As Miss Germany, she made around 200 appearances until she was replaced by Carolina Noeding on 24 February 2013.

Oh Goody, a New German Word!

Fremdschämen
. . . to feel ashamed about something someone else has done; to be embarrassed because someone else has embarrassed himself (and doesn't notice).
Usage:  Fremdschämen On Behalf Of Lanny Davis
What kind of bizarre photos of Lanny are the Clintons holding? Watching a grown man roll like a drunk in Her Majesty’s scandal vomit really leaves one needing some hygiene:


FWIW, I got a well deserved D in High School German, thanks to a personality conflict with Frau Nissam.
