[Shotimes] OT - Win a ricer!

[mkelley1@gt.rr.com]

At one time I had a box that a PC processor cooling fan came in that had a
poor Chinese-to-English translation.  It read like poetry.  It went
something like:

"Fan joined with CPU provides most appreciated wind of coolness..."

I remember buying a Chinese computer component once (not on purpose!).

The instructions went something like this:

"Do this, do that, BINGO - your computer work!"

Yeah, I suspect that something gets lost in the translation to English!!!  

Much like the Chinese-to-English translations!! The latest was the personal
battery-powered fan that I got in a golf tournament: "Batteries fixing: if
power turns weak, please change new batteries"
