Okay, so the title should have been catchy enough to at least have drawn some attention. Hello!

So, the German high-pressure cleaner manufacturer Kärcher has decided that it is about time to clean the four great American Presidents displayed at Mount Rushmore.

Isn't that nice, huh?

Next year, they will make a trip to China and clean the palaces in the Forbidden City.

Workers on the task explained that the dirtiest part of the Presidents definitely were their nostrils! (Because whereas the face gets naturally washed by rain, nobody picked their noses before...) :D

By the way, while looking at the photograph of Mt. Rushmore, don't you think the photographer should have taken another angle? They all have funny moustaches!!!

Anyway, those who might think that Germans don't show enough solidarity towards the US, at least we help to keep your heritage clean!
(Reconsider what you say next: Otherwise we're gonna remember that and apply some black paint... :eek:!)
