Wenn SAP Toaster herstellen würde, wäre das Bedienungshandbuch ca. 10.000 Seiten dick, der Toaster hätte 2500 Schalter, die alle nach exaktem Muster eingeschaltet werden müßten. Ein Team von Basis- und Funktionsunternehmern würde ungefähr ein Jahr brauchen, um den Toaster bestmöglich zu konfigurieren, und dann nochmals sechs Monate, um ihn zu testen. In der Zwischenzeit müßte Ihre gesamte Familie ausgedehnte Ausbildungskurse besuchen, um zu lernen, wie der Toaster zu bedienen ist. Und wenn einmal alles läuft, so werden sie sagen, dann haben Sie den besten Toast der Welt bekommen...
On 4 May 1904 a group of 14 and 15-year-old boys founded a football club they called Westfalia Schalke. To gain admission to organised club competition, the club merged with a gymnastics club known as Turnverein 1877 Schalke eight years later. But in 1924 the footballers parted company with the gymnasts and adopted the name FC Schalke 04, changing the club colors from red and yellow to blue and white in the process.

Köln "Cologne "
I spent 7 wonderful years in the city of Cologne.
Cologne (German: Köln (help·info), IPA: [kœln]; local dialect: Kölle ['kœ??]) is Germany's fourth-largest city after Berlin, Hamburg and Munich, and is the largest city both in the German Federal State of North Rhine-Westphalia and within the Rhine-Ruhr Metropolitan Area, one of the major European metropolitan areas with more than ten million inhabitants. It is one of the oldest cities in Germany, having been founded by the Romans in the year 38 BC. Cologne was granted the status of a Roman "city" in the year 50 AD.
Cologne carnival is one of the biggest street festivals in Europe. It is held annually from 11 November to Ash Wednesday. But the so-called "crazy days" don`t start before until Wieverfastelovend (Thursday before Ash Wednesday), which is the beginning of the street carnival. Hundreds of thousands of visitors flock to Cologne during this time. Generally around a million people are celebrating in the streets on the Thursday before Ash Wednesday
