Schadenfreude is the great pleasure derived
By someone, from
another person's misfortune
It’s ironic that the

SCHADENFREUDE
NICKNAMED SNOW PLOUGH
When my brother was a young man
He had a well-earned

To fetch her poor dog

There were two flags flying on adjacent poles
In all weathers as
wind and hail they braved
And in all the years
the two flags silently flew
They never once spoke,
they simply waved
