From the Department of Unfortunate Names, Ecuadorian politician Hitler "Kike" Alvarez.
I think the interesting part is that it's his first name, not his family name. So his mother picked it.

"the Notre Dame fire" would make sense as a phrase, but probably not if you translated it

"Le feu de Notre Dame" would be fine.

How many people can you pack into a Honda on a Jewish holiday?
At least twelve:Acts 2:1 And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one Accord in one place.
The first Christian martyr, Stephen, was hit by a Honda before being stoned to death:
Acts 7:57 Then they cried out with a loud voice, and stopped their ears, and ran upon him with one Accord,
Only those with a Honda can see miracles:
Acts 8:6 And the people with one Accord gave heed unto those things which Philip spake, hearing and seeing the miracles which he did.
Angels drive Hondas:
Acts 12:10 When they were past the first and the second ward, they came unto the iron gate that leadeth unto the city; which opened to them of his own Accord: and they went out, and passed on through one street; and forthwith the angel departed from him.
The early church in Jerusalem preferred Hondas:
Acts 15:25 it seemed good unto us, being assembled with one Accord, to send chosen men unto you with our beloved Barnabas and Paul,
Hondas give happiness:
Philippians 2:2 fulfil ye my joy, that ye be likeminded, having the same love, being of one Accord, of one mind.

All of them, if you put them in the ash tray.

The Holocaust is such a serious, tragic topic that the only possible appropriate ways to respond are sorrow or humor. The worst way is to ignore and forget it. I think everyone, at least once in their life, needs to visit a Holocaust museum. I know there's one in New York City and one in Jerusalem. I think there may be one in Germany, too. Alternately, visit one of the death camps. They're not really places that can be visited more than once due to the immense emotional impact.
People who have a somber response sometimes think that it's disrespectful to laugh or make jokes about the Holocaust. On the contrary, that can often be how people cope with such levels of human depravity; jokes put the seriousness of the topic in terms we can understand. For someone to be able to see the humor of a Holocaust joke means that that person knows and understands what happened. The people who can't either laugh (uncomfortably) or cry are the sociopaths who would be willing to repeat it.

That's more of a Holocaust joke. Observe the difference:
A group of people standing on a subway platform — an American, a Russian, and an Israeli. A reporter approaches and says, “Excuse me, can I get your opinion about the meat shortage?”
“What’s a shortage?” says the American.
“What’s meat?” says the Russian.
“What’s excuse me?” says the Israeli.

@pie_flavor I was in the distribution area of the El Paso Times when the movie version of "The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas" came out. The paper could not, under its existing editorial standards, print the word "whorehouse", so the movie was listed as "If You Can't Say It, See It".

Death held out a hand. I WANT, he said, A BOOK ABOUT THE DANGEROUS CREATURES OF FOURECKS-
Albert looked up and dived for cover, receiving only mild bruising because he had the foresight to curl into a ball.
After a while Death, his voice a little muffled, said: ALBERT, I WOULD BE SO GRATEFUL IF YOU COULD GIVE ME A HAND HERE.
Albert scrambled up and pulled at some of the huge volumes, finally dislodging enough of them for his master to clamber free.
HMM... Death picked up a book at random and read the cover. "DANGEROUS MAMMALS, REPTILES, AMPHIBIANS, BIRDS, FISH, JELLYFISH, INSECTS, SPIDERS, CRUSTACEANS, GRASSES, TREES, MOSSES, AND LICHENS OF TERROR INCOGNITA, " he read. His gaze moved down the spine. VOLUME 29C, he added. OH. PART THREE, I SEE.
He glanced up at the listening shelves. POSSIBLY IT WOULD BE SIMPLER IF I ASKED FOR A LIST OF THE HARMLESS CREATURES OF THE AFORESAID CONTINENT?
They waited.
IT WOULD APPEAR THAT-
"No, wait master. Here it comes."
Albert pointed to something white zigzagging lazily through the air. Finally Death reached up an caught the single sheet of paper.
He read it carefully and then turned it over briefly just in case anything was written on the other side.
"May I?" said Albert. Death handed him the paper.
"'Some of the sheep, '" Albert read aloud. "Oh, well. Maybe a week at the seaside'd be better, then."
WHAT AN INTRIGUING PLACE, said Death. SADDLE UP THE HORSE, ALBERT. I FEEL SURE I'M GOING TO BE NEEDED.

I'm not one for feelings or mysticism in places. Grand vistas don't make me tear up. But I visited two Holocaust sites in Latvia (the site of the death camp near Salaspils and the Riga ghetto/museum) and those were...somber occasions. You could feel the hurt, the pain, and the concentrated evil as you walked the grounds. The most impactful was the long wall of names (shown below in panoramic view--all of those lines of text are peoples names that were sent through this tiny area).

In Uechi-ryu karate, all forms start off by extending your arms in front of you, elbows slightly bent, moving the hands slightly from side-to-side, as if to say, "I don't want any trouble." If you ever saw those guys in action, you'd say that the other guy better not want any trouble either.
But I don't think the picture displays that kind of strategy, exactly.
