Congratulations!

Time for tea, I'm tee-total.

Wiki says you are typically in charge of a battalion - I think that just means you have to paint in bigger batches

It escaped, and is here.  .

"...a full stop, like a full or perfect point, is obviously not an imperfect point or stop, whether as brief as a comma or as clear-cut as a semicolon or as disruptive as a dash or as smooth as a pair of parenthesis or as culturedly poised as a colon: here ends the statment, here ends the sentence."

Soda - in a single MALT - PHILISTINE

Also NAZIS should be all capitalised - its initials of the party name

Right on the Malt (shudder). Wrong on the Nazi; in English usage of course, in German it would be NSDAP...
