Some will be glad to know that, just for using English idioms, you get two more full levels of bliss than Germans do (or Italians for that matter). That's right, in German once you reached cloud seven (Wolke sieben) there is nowhere else to go. As you can see from this bed and mattress store, the little sleeping angel is totally blissed out. So next time you're way up on cloud nine, think of all the poor Germans that are stuck down on cloud 7 and maybe it will bring you back down to their ultimate cloud level. But wait, does that mean that Germans only have to climb 7 cloud levels to attain nirvana whereas the English-speaking world must work harder to reach a higher plane? Is cloud ascension measured on a logarithmic scale? What authority certifies these levels? Is there a reviewing committee? What are the political ramifications of...
