Norris Visits Germany As Part of Diplomatic Mission

Not everybody has an alpenhorn like that

Paul Norris of the Growlers Gulch Cycling Team is currently touring Europe on a goodwill mission. He was in Hamburg this weekend to develop cultural ties and discuss LifePort business.

Norris took time out to demonstrate his musical skills to the Germans. Check out the size of that alpenhorn!

A true American in the Bill O’Reilly mode, Norris made the ultimate sacrifice, giving up his 5K training regimen to establish positive vibes abroad. After the unfortunate lederhosen debacle that set back Swiss-U.S. relations a century or more,  Norris made every effort to ensure that he did not trigger an international incident.

When he got off the plane in Hamburg, he greeted a throng of onlookers by shouting, “Ich bin ein Hamburger.”

In another show of unity with the German people, he requested sauerkraut on his Big Mac at the Hamburg MacDonald-dorfen and asked for a personal tour of the Herman Goering air museum.

Despite his hectic schedule, he later found time to meet with Helga Mittendorfenschulenbachersmith, LifePort’s European representative, before flying on to the Middle East to discuss baklava and the establishment of a Palestinian state with Israeli leaders and Joe the Plumber.

As you might have already guessed, Helga also plays the alpenhorn.

And quite well, I’m told.
