Overheard at the Strip Mall...

Marko's teenage niece is visiting from Germany. We took her to Five Guys for burgers and then turned her loose in Kohl's this past weekend. Teenagers have a lot more Kohl's endurance than most, and so eventually Marko decided we'd amble next door to the Game Stop and meet her there.

I flagged her down in the checkout line and informed her of our plans, then caught up with Marko on the sidewalk out front.

Me: "Okay, I told her we'd meet her next door at Spiel Halte."

Apparently German mine not so good is, although very literal.
