Ladies and Gentlemen (well, mainly ladies): Here it is! The proof that adding meat to your nutrition IS in fact essential for developing a sense of humor... ;D My oh my... I thought the commercial was kind of cute. I'm not sure it's a German or European thing, but it is totally common to give younger kids a little sausage or something like that in old-fashioned butcher shops (as in this commercial) or even in supermarkets. I think every child grew up with this (and happily accompanying their parents on the shopping trips in hopes to snatch something from the butcher). (If that is also the case in the US and the Philippines just ignore my lesson about "German customs and habits, pt. 2467"....  ) |

Here's Dirk doing a ply-by-play of JET to Brandon Wright when the Mavs played Minnesota.

I imagine locally owned stores may still do that if they know you and/or your family. |

It's Louisiana French for "something extra" like thirteen doughnuts instead of the standard twelve.  |

Not bad! I was surprised that Steve Nash came way behind Dirk (# 13). And the video they associated with Dirk... Totally forgot about it. I just have to post here again. ;D Ugh, I miss Tyson Chandler. *sigh* Oh, and speaking of Steve Nash... Does anyone believe in a comeback to Dallas with him being a free agent this summer?! |

I think I know what Dirk is going to do for a living wen he retires from basketball, he is going to become.... a TAMBOURINE player!  I'm kidding. I hope. Anyway, Dirk picked up the tambourine for an impromptu stage performance with an act called the Avett Brothers. If you haven't heard of them don't worry neither have I. The song they did is called "I Killed Sally's Lover". Dirk comes in at about the 2 minute mark on the video. Here is the article from bleacher report Daily Swag: bleacherreport.com/articles/1208017-dallas-mavericks-star-dirk-nowitzki-goes-country-with-avett-brothers |
