Sorry, but ....."Seriously, nobody knows"? Sorry, but ... this is just not right. The word "Bandana" IS used in German. So is "Kopftuch", but the latter tends to refer to women's headscarves or religious headdress, while "Bandana" is for the biker-style type. Maybe it's a generational thing? If you don't believe it, just search some German web sites for "Bandana". Hell, try amazon.de -- over 6000 bandanas for sale.<br /><br />Badly-performed gags? Sure, they're a dime a dozen. But nobody under 40 should be confused by the word "Bandana".<br /><br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8614376202473604721.post-30025620854694945702013-04-15T18:10:33.197-07:002013-04-15T18:10:33.197-07:00Oh, i have seen a variation of this by a german Co...Oh, i have seen a variation of this by a german Commedian/magician, was a good one, where he is instructed to destroy a spectators watch and burn it.
