Germans give new word to English language

A new word in the German language - 'Bossnapping'. It appears in today's Frankfurter Rundschau. And naurally it means kidnapping a boss. What would be the past participle of bossnapping and would it be a separable verb? Fabulous stuff indeed.

German television were in Dublin on Sunday and interviewed Sinead O'Connor on the child sex abuse issue in the Irish Catholic church. It was on the programme ttt.

It was poor quality, superficial and old hat material.
