Time To Face The Music
The celebrated German poet Friedrich Schiller, dead for more than 200 years, has been sent reminders that he should pay his TV and radio licence fee. The German fee collection agency, GEZ, mistakenly sent letters to "Mr Friedrich Schiller" - which arrived at a primary school bearing his name.
FOOTNOTE: Fee for all.

Oh, David, you missed the pun. Note of Dischord. Shame on you.
Alternate Footnote:
How could the German collection agency Nazi this coming?

The GEZ is still resentful about the play Schiller dedicated to them, "The Robbers" ("Die Räuber"). ;-)
What a joke! Why am I not surprised?
I've noticed that the Post Office often gets it wrong, no matter what country they're located...

Even death doesn't let you escape. Eying is no excuse for not turning up for work eh?
That's DYING is no excuse, not eying. lol. Although eying would be a poor excuse too.
