There were also things in the book about cats, barbers, and being civil. Goethe stuck something in there about grey-green stuff, as he usually did, but he was polite about it. Volunteers got to enjoy the Communist party for free when they weren't working their shifts, but after 1991 they had to pay that cover charge. And PTT and PPTT. Because Freedom.<br /><br /><b>Special Musical Addition:</b> Beethoven invented music in prison. Because freedom. And he did something with mock Princes, or Fake Sovereigns Formerly Known As Princes. That wasn't clear. But he got his revenge by erasing / rubbing out Napoleon in that Vienna. Afterwards he was all turned around, to a big ovation.
