69. Never Gonna Happen! Switzerland will never surrender their national symbol:

They belong to the canton of Thurgau in Northeast Switzerland. So they can live there, presumably at the Cuckoo House:

Both Bachmanns and their three kids are now Swiss citizens. I see an extended holiday in their future. Say, twenty or thirty years.

Just sayin'
