Drunken erotic online chat from bathtub sparks call to police

A woman in Aachen was compelled to call the police after her drunken female friend slumped into a bathtub while the two were having an erotic chat online, the authorities reported on Wednesday.
- Minister calls for abuse compensation - National (9 Mar 10)
- Turkish culture club firebombed in Münster - National (9 Mar 10)
- Litigious woman fails to prove atom-smasher will end world - Science & Technology (9 Mar 10)
But during the course of what Aachen police spokesman Paul Kemen described as a "bibulous exchange of sweet nothings," the woman's chat partner in Memmingen, Bavaria seemed to submerge herself in her bathtub. After that she disappeared out of sight and gave no more signs of life.
Fearing for her safety, the young woman in Aachen then sought help from the local police, who contacted their colleagues in Bavaria. Fortunately she was no worse for wear in the dry tub.
"The drunken pearl of love had fallen asleep in the empty bathtub and was fine considering the circumstances," the police said.

bibulously? Drunken not good enough?
while having the two were having?
All your base are belong to us
Paul what the heck did you actually say? ¦quot;feuchtfröhlichen Austausch -von Frivolitäten¦quot; a common phrase in common circumstances-tipsy and merry-
however in circumstances like women in bathtubs with webcams it leads to an ambiguous interpretation as ¦quot;wet and relaxed ¦quot;
not drunk though
¦quot;Liebesperlen¦quot;in plural is a sweet. When used in the singular noun it´s getting hot
Aachen is strange
when the locals greet one another you watch them extend their pinkie fingers, which were once used to sort needles in a factory
apart from boasting about the cathedral and Charlemagne the town is home to the hottest springs north of the Alps-that explaines a lot.You can call them crazy-jeck-anytime and they will reply with merci pour le complément
as to yesterdays news of- their couples have highest national divorce rate: It´s a hoax.
I hope a certain bloke on reading this will make good on his promise of
providing me with lots of Aachen Printen cookies, yam
@Keydeck what´s the world without humor
