Ya, it was my last and greatest theorie, mein theorie of superlativity.  You see, I am taking the music, or 'mu' as I am calling it and I am asking, but how, with restrictions of speeds of light and sound can I be making it greater, so much greater.  And ya, I am discovering that where it was all equalling relative before now I am now looking at SUPERLATIVE, so I am squaring the music and ya it is so much greater, best, superlative, and of course by natural theorie logic best in music resolves as Wunderlickin.  And I am saying Relativity-schmellativity, ein ist now superlativity, Wunderlicks uber alles.

Send your worries and concerns to Dr. Klaus Wunderlick, any topic and no subject too sensitive: affairs of the heart, musical conundrums, odd jobs around the house you just don't know how to tackle.  A speedy response and early piece of mind can be yours - for free!

 

Alternatively have a listening to the Wunderlickin audios and post ein commenten. Wunderbar.

 

 

From  Smoothest: Do you help dogs? I have this man who lives with me and who feeds me but insists on throwing sticks. Sure I bring them back to him and it seems to keep him happy enough but I am getting a bit fed up.

Dear Smoothest: For smooth dogs with cool sungoggles, ya of course I help, but I am thinking I know this one before and maybe you are being smarter than man with stick.  Is small price too to be paying for 'free' food.  Nein.  Be happy fed and smooth dog.

 

From Ernstd:  Help me, please...

Dear Ernstd, I can of course help you, and without the specifics for even from your picture I am seeing that you are not looking so good.  But it is all in the licking. So I refer you to a curious case of a young couple I am recently with dealing.  Practice, practice, practice I am saying and ya, this they are doing, and am course taking the photograph with my x-ray machine.

 

The Great Wunderlick Refractor

Although the fashion - some might call it a Teutonic crazinonessen, has somewhat faded with time, in 19th century Germany, the desire to be seen to have a Wunderlick - as demonstrated by tongue length, was almost a national obsession. The Wunderlick Observatory was built during the years 1880 to 1888. The 80-cm refractor was fabricated at the same time, and one dome was built specifically for viewing through this wunderlickinnumffunschtassen. "80-cm" refers to the perceived length of the tongue when viewed through the refracting wunderlickinnumffunschtassen, one of which is pictured above. When completed, the Wunderlick Refractor was the largest refracting wunderlickinnumffunschtassen in the world. Even today, it is second in size only to the 40-inch Yerkes Observatory refractor.  And as today, in 19th century Germany size mattered.  Customers included the venerable Iron Chancellor - Otto Von Bismarck who was said to practice licking every day.

Located in the large dome of the main observatory building, the Great Lick refractor was 20 metres long, 1.5 metres in diameter, and weighed over 25,000 lbs! The two 80 cm diameter glass disks were fabricated in France, and ground and polished into lenses in Munchen by Siegfried Wunderlick and his wunderkind Berndt. It was a considerable challenge to transport these large pieces of glass (after grinding and polishing) across the country by railroad, and finally up the long, winding road to Wunderlicken Laboratoren by horse and carriage. One of the original lenses broke in transit, and it took several years and 18 attempts to fabricate the replacement lens, which finally arrived 1886, as recorded in this historical wunderlickinnumffunschtassen arrival photo of the Wunderlick Observatory.  Sadly the wunderlickinnumffunschtassen was smashed in the severe winter of 1922 when several locals had their licking tongues frozen to the glass and destruction was seen as the only way to rescue them from certain death.  By the mid 1930s the desire to have an exceptionally long tongue was fading. 

The grateful almost dead

He has filled books with grateful letters from people who have saved their loved ones.

Since the technique was introduced it has saved more than 100,000 US lives, including those of Cher, former President Ronald Reagan, Elizabeth Taylor, Goldie Hawn, Walter Matthau, Carrie Fisher and Jack Lemmon.

But despite being the inventor of one of the most significant singing techniques, Dr Wunderlick told BBC News Online that he has only been called upon once to carry it out himself - and that was just three years ago.

Failure to sing

"I was in the club restaurant eating when I hear someone yelling 'Wunderlick!  Wunderlick!'.  I turned around and I see a woman desparately struggling to sing. Ya, so I do the Wunderlick Manoeuvre and to get it out of her and Wunderbar!  And so I am then going and eating my wunderlickin' lunch.

They say to me 'you saved my   life, you have gave me the singing.' Dr Wunderlick

"Everybody in the world knows the Wunderlick Manoeuvre and it is in all the dictionaries. Ya and it got me into the Oxford Dictionary. "

"It is very gratifying to me. I have been to the China, the Africa and ya, the England and everyone knows about it. They all say to me 'are you the Dr Wunderlick of the Wunderlick Manoeuvre?'  They will say to me 'you saved my life, you have gave me the singing'
