[Shotimes] OT - Win a ricer!

[Mike.Wojton@us.o-i.com]

You need to check out www.engrish.com.  Very humorous stuff.

Also, seeing as I was the one that started this whole Hankook thing,
I feel compelled to say that it just struck me as funny.  I'm not saying
it IS funny.  Just that it struck me that way.

Also also, speaking of bad Japanese translations, anybody else watching
Most Extreme Elimination Challenge on TNN?  Absolutely hilarious!
They don't do direct translation of the Japanese show, they make up
there own dialogue.  And boy is it funny!
