berlin wall

an ugly scar that divided one of Europe's great cities for a few decades. After WWII Berlin was divided into the communist east side and the non-communist west side. People from the east side were going to work at the west side, as well as defect to West Berlin, which was considered a part of West Germany. One day in 1961 all exits to the west side were closed and cut off. The Berlin Wall was erected, primarily to halt the flow of defectors from East Berlin. The Wall was armed with landmines and there were "security" towers manned with guards who shot escape hopefuls on site. Many people who attempted defection were killed by the Stasi, guards, but a few lucky ones managed to escape - even though it was extremely difficult. With the Iron Curtain coming down during the autumn of 1989, the Berlin Wall was opened up by Communist East Germans on November 8. Soon there was celebration, dancing and the use of tools to chip away at the wall. The communist regime of East Germany resigned and the Wall was completely torn down sometime in early 1990. A historical and exciting time that was.
1. In 1990 Pink Floyd alumnus Roger Waters organized and set up a rock'n'roll and theatrical extravaganza performance of the 1979 classic album "The Wall" featuring a wide diversity of stars such as the Grateful Dead, Bryan Adams, the Scorpions, Cyndi Lauper, Sinead O'Connor, the Soviet Red Army military band, and much more, at the site where the Berlin Wall once stood. A temporary "wall" was erected and torn down at the command near the end of the concert: TEAR DOWN THE WALL!.

Last year Roger got busted in the Holy Land for spraypainting "TEAR DOWN THE WALL!" and "NO THOUGHT CONTROL" at the barrier wall that separates Israelis and Palestinians. This was a few hours before he gave a show in the area. He said that we managed to tear down the wall in Berlin and we're gonna tear this wall down too. Rock on, Roger!

The only city in northern NH. It lies at the beginning of the great north woods in the middle of coos county. It has about 11,000 people.

Berlin at one point had the biggest paper mill east of Michigan. But it closed in 2006.

The school's in berlin have bad teachers and they dont know what they're talking about.

There isn't much to do in Berlin for anybody, its basically made up of Rednecks, Stoners, French People, And poor people that moved up there from ghetto's in Mass.

Berlingeresque

Any action which combines ghettoness, extreme luck, and blatent stupidity.

Not neccessarily an insult, can also be used to credit one with luck or an uncanny ability to act in a way "unfit" for "normal" people.
Examples:
1. Ironing a shirt while it's on
2. Getting away with stealing shit from a house and speeding afterward.
3. Consistantly forgetting your work uniform, but going to work anyway

Berlin

Can be defined as the capital of Germany; the name of a beautiful goddess child. A sexy beast If you will. Mess with a Berlin, and you'll get your ass beat! Don't fuck with her. Berlin's love money. When her birthday comes around, everyone better make it fucking rain! Benjamins by the hour. They love to have fun and don't like somebody to ruin it. They are goofy and love to have close by friends and family. Be generous to Berlin's and she will give back!
My name is Berlin and I have the best name ever! Very unique

New Berlin NY

New Berlin NY is a small town that happens to be very over taxed and regulated in the middle of the hell that is Upstate NY which also happens to be very over taxed and regulated/ruled. It's where fun dies and in its place is taxes laws and a sizeable amount of dink wads (the ones who are not dinks are nice people). New Berlin and Upstate for that matter is not worth the time of day to go visit. On the upside the hunting and fishing is good if you like that type of thing if not well their is no point for you to go there.
Thought I died and went to hell but turns out I just went to New Berlin NY
