Story
Wurmdoblers penetrantes Werben um die Zenzi war inzwischen ein ständiger Handlungsbestandteil geworden. Er wollte sie ums Verrecken heiraten, sie aber nicht ihn. Nicht dass sie ihn nicht mochte, sie zierte sich nur und änderte ständig ihre Meinung. Anlass für viele grotesk motivierte, verzinkte, weitere Heiratsversuche des Wurmdobler Tonerl. Einen ersten Höhepunkt des Dauerwerbens brachte Folge No. 7: "Der Mord, ein trauriges Drama". Die Zenzi ist hier ganz besonders beeinflussbar für mystische Hintergründe und Ereignisse, weil sie grad dem Kartenlegen frönt.

Story
Ende Januar '48 konnten Lang und Gallauner zeigen, dass sie das Schwerste, was einem Schauspieler abverlangt werden kann, meisterhaft beherrschten, nämlich glaubhaft Betrunkene zu spielen. Zenzi will diesmal Schauspielerin werden. Sie besteht darauf, Herrn Brumml die Jungfrau von Orleans vorzusprechen. Olf hatte dabei eine erfolgreiche Szene der Gallauner aus dem 'Bunten Würfel' in kleinen Teilen übernommen. Auch das abschließende Chanson ''Es wär so schön, wenn i schön wär" von Fred Rauch war dort eine ihrer Erfolgsnummern gewesen.

Story
"Die Weihnachtsgans" stammte vornehmlich von Olf Fischer. Handlung und Voraussetzungen sind ein wahres Abbild dieser Monate im Jahr des Mangels, 1947. So war es (wenn auch selten so lustig)! Die Proben waren mühevoll. Die Schauspieler konnten erst nach ihren Abendvorstellungen oder Weihnachtsfeiern nachts bis 12 Uhr da sein. Meist todmüde konnten sich manche keinen Text merken und sich nur schwer konzentrieren. Alle waren überfordert und unterernährt. Die Lebensmittelzuteilungen wurden immer minimaler und für den freien Markt hatte keiner Geld.

Story
Zum Derblecken gab es vor und nach der Währungsreform genug. Die Wohnungsnot war noch groß, der Bauboom begann ja erst. Noch immer verwaltete ein überdimensioniertes Wohnungsamt zwangsweise und selbstherrlich den Mangel. Nicht immer mit korrekten Mitteln. Darauf zielte unsere Geschichte aus dem Jahr 1947. Olf schrieb darin für die Zenzi und Brumml schöne Gaudiszenen, in denen durch Brummls Wortwahl die Mitgliedschaft in Vereinen derbleckt wird, die nach den Erfahrungen in der Nazizeit sehr peinlich werden konnte. Das ergab schöne Anspielungen und Pointen.

"Das Hemd": eine 'flotte' Geschichte mit hübschen, etwas groben Pointen fand am 24. Juni '47 eine begeisterte Aufnahme. Dass Gallauner und Vogel nicht ihre späteren Stammfiguren spielten, konnte bei Folge 2 natürlich noch niemand erkennen. Sie waren ja noch keine Stammfiguren. Das wurden sie erst ab Folge 4.

Story
BUTZI: Ich fand zufällig eine Kurzgeschichte über einen gestohlenen Hund. Eine lustige Anregung für meine Absicht, kein übliches Volksstück zu machen, sondern bayrisches Kabarett und Zeitsatire. Episoden um einen spannenden Handlungsfaden, und eine möglichst groteske Schlußpointe. Als Szenen-Überleitungen Chansons und aktuelle Schlager mit bayrischem Text, der die Handlung kommentiert und glossiert. So konnte ich traditionell bayrisch in moderner Form sein. Nur - wer könnte mir das schreiben?

Coexisting but conflicting needs create self-sabotaging behaviors. This is why we resist efforts to change, often until they feel completely futile. But by extracting crucial insight from our most damaging habits, building emotional intelligence by better understanding our brains and bodies, releasing past experiences at a cellular level, and learning to act as our highest potential future selves, we can step out of our own way and into our potential.

An incredible adventure is about to begin!

For decades we've been told that positive thinking is the key to a happy, rich life. "F*ck positivity," Mark Manson says. "Let's be honest, shit is f*cked, and we have to live with it." In his wildly popular Internet blog, Manson doesn't sugarcoat or equivocate. He tells it like it is - a dose of raw, refreshing, honest truth that is sorely lacking today. The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck is his antidote to the coddling, let's-all-feel-good mind-set that has infected modern society and spoiled a generation, rewarding them with gold medals just for showing up.

On November 6, 1860, Abraham Lincoln became the fluky victor in a tight race for president. The country was bitterly at odds; Southern extremists were moving ever closer to destroying the Union, with one state after another seceding and Lincoln powerless to stop them. Slavery fueled the conflict, but somehow the passions of North and South came to focus on a lonely federal fortress in Charleston Harbor: Fort Sumter.
