Schaeuble brings up idea of a parallel currency for Greece. I guess that's not a Grexodus so much as a Grexpulsion.

Or more cynically, Drachma for the Greeks, Euros for the bond holders.

Schäuble actually has to use a wheelchair because he was assassinated by a mentally ill person. The guy hit his spinal chord.
