Get the Swindon mug.Popularized by the Historical Fiction movie "Swing Kids" (starring Robert Sean Leonard and Christian Bale) whom yelled "Swing Heil!" instead of "Seig Heil!" in pride of loving swing music and being the counterculture rebels of the Hitler Youth.
In Nazi Germany, there was a counterculture group who loved American Swing music (which was banned for it was not German as well as much was by African Americans or Jews), wore their hair long, opposed Nazism, and went to clubs in the middle of the night to dance to this swing music. Nazis occasionally went to check in on such clubs, which by then the band was given the cue to play German music and all that were swing dancing only seconds ago had begun stepping in a traditional German dance so they did not get in trouble. However, the outcome of the Swing Kids' lives depended on how they reacted when dealing with the fear of being reported and taken by the Nazis versus being rebels and standing for what they believed in.

PETER!" Willie yelled, watching his big brother being driven away, off to starve and be tortured in a concentration camp like their father had- "Peter!" he yelled again. He then saw his brother's umbrella in a puddle by his feet. He then picked it up, raised it above his head and chanted back to his brother with tears and pride. "SWING HEIL! SWING HEIL!!

Get the swing heil mug.A country which grew as the cantons-to-be (districts) formed political alliances swearing to help each other defend their territories; thus "Eidgenossenschaft", meaning "oath-community". Soon this motley crew of still independent states set out to conquer more land and eventually become the mighty country known as Switzerland. It should be noted that this procedure resulted in a territory comprising roughly 2x the size of New Jersey but more sinificant to the average Swiss, a territory smaller than Austria or even Bavaria. This fact should not be mentioned mockingly by any visitor to this 70%-alpine country unless he or she is intent on finding out if every male Swiss really does still store his army riffle in the wardrobe.
Switzerland is known for its neutral attitude towards all sorts of events in world history, although it should not be forgotten that it did try to invade Italy in 1515.
Should any two parties choose to start a war, Switzerland will demonstrate its neutrality by selling weapons to both parties.

Switzerland, hero of song and story!
Switzerland, winner of ancient glory!
Fighting for the right, fighting with its might;
With the strength of ten, ordinary lands!
Switzerland, people are safe when in it,
Switzerland, only the evil fear it!
Softness in its eyes, iron in its thighs;
Virtue in its heart, fire in every part of
The Mighty Switzerland!
(probably the inspiration for "the Mighty Hercules")

Get the Switzerland mug.Swimming is life. The best sport for you. Swimming is the only sport that is good for everybody, no matter the age or physical activity: the only sport that does not put too much pressure on bones and joints (cycling comes close). The only risk of injury in swimming is some sort of tendinitis, like rotater cuff, or cutting hands and fingers on lane lines.
Competitive swimming can get any person into shape, and give you ripped arms, legs, and abs. And we get all the girls. Swimming is the only sport that can force people out of a room because the cheering is too loud and intense, the only sport where guys in speedos is considered hot, and the only sport where the girls will actually jump into the pool after you win. Swimmers practice 12 months of the year, 5 or more days a week, and only take a break for christmas or vacation.
We can swim miles in under 15 minutes, 25 yards in under 20 seconds, 50 or more yards without breathing, and beat anybody at a game of chicken in somebodies backyard pool.
