Route 72

Thursday, April 9th, 2009

So here is my second official 72 picture (someone holding up a 7 and a 2, which happens to be my heigth). This one is taken in front of the Brandenburg Gate in Berlin, Germany. This is the city I was born and grew up in; when I was a kid there was a Wall that prevented people walking up to the gate, so this picture has a lot of meaning. (Some of you might remember that same spot in which President Ronald Reagan told “Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall.”)

Well, it finally happened years after his speech. Thank you Mr President, Thank you America. (And thank you Rainer for taking this picture).

Route 72

Saturday, March 21st, 2009

It has been a long time since I posted something here. Actually one of my patients had a great idea: He recently had company from the East Coast and they wanted to see the famous Route 66. So, since I am 7′2″ he mentioned that there should be a Route 72.

I told Lisa about it and she had two poor guys hold up a sign with 7′ 2″. The picture is taken by a brave soul who saw the bull approaching - that’s why it appears blurry.

So thanks for the picture. (I would appreciate it, if you wouldn’t get into danger to take my 72 pictures).

So for all the rest out there, let’s see what you can come up with. Be creative, hold up a 7 and a 2 and email them to me.

Thanks,

TS
