Danish pizzeria bans French and Germans
A Danish pizzeria has banned French and Germans from dining there because of their country's stance on a war with Iraq.
Aage Bjerre, who owns Aage's Pizza on the island of Fanoe, said he's tired of French and German attitudes toward the United States.
He's put two homemade drawings on the shop door, one a silhouette of a man coloured red, yellow and black for Germany and another in the red, white and blue for France.
Both silhouettes have a bar across them.
He says Germans will be allowed in if their country joins a war on Iraq, but the French will have to endure a lifetime ban.
Aage said: "Hadn't the United States helped Europe in defeating Germany, there would have been photos of Adolf Hitler hanging on the walls around here."
The ban has yet to affect his business because the tourist season only starts after Easter and peaks during the summer. "I do what my conscience tells me to do," he said.
He added: "Frenchmen have a lifetime ban here. Their attitude toward the United States will never change."

I wonder if he delivers? Might be expensive, but I'd glady support that guy!
This French and German crap makes me glad I bought an English car rather than a BMW, VW, or Audi - they won't be seeing any of my money any time soon...

DAMN.....this guy is hard to track down. It took me 3 hours, but I got his address and phone number (but no email)......and also located the local "chamber" on the internet.
I have sent them an email asking if they know this guy's)or his business's) email address.
I hope they can provide it, because I would hate to find out how much it costs to call Fano Island, Denmark....... .
I'll keep you posted..........
