How much wood would a wood duck duck if you would chuck, at a wood duck, wood?

It plays with the words Leutnant (Lieutenant), Leute (people), Leuthen ( name of a town) and läuten (to ring/chime).
By the way at last year's FilkCon the UT members had to read out English tongue twisters about switched witches wearing swatch watches :p But they really mastered the task well!

Der Potsdamer Postkutscher putzt den Potsdamer Postkutschkasten.
God, that's hard to translate... let me triy... Er... the stage coach driver of Potsdam (town near Berlin) cleans the Potsdam stage coach chest (is there a word like that? I don't know...).
Все отлично сделано!
