Its a famous saying (among old people, like myself. Pass the Geritol!) from Kennedy (a President) (of the US) in an address to Berlin during the cold war (with the USSR) (thats Russia) (which is in Europe).
Eich bin ein Berliner means "I am a Berliner" or a person who is from Berlin (that's in Germany, which is in Europe).
It was meant to convey that their problems were also the problems of the US and that we were willing to fight for them as if we came from there.
Think Tony Blair in the Presidential address to congress after 9/11.
And yes, Swatzy is Austrian, but they speak German.
So, in a ccccllllleeevvveeerrrr play on words and topics I junxtaposed the whole Austria/German thing and acrobaticly adding in a dash of history (for the wrong audience) in the claiming of where I was from and on another level, reaching out to all to say that I am with them too as well all share in that big ol' global village to create this masterpiece of a joke that only I understand.
So, in short:
It was a joke. Didnt work out. Backing out of it now.
And possibly embarassing myself in the process. Oh well.
Soo...
Moving on....

But ya'll already know that.

You should tell us when you're joking so we'll know to laugh.
