Re:mondegreens......."This may happen in the opposite direction as well: i.e., English words of a song are misheard, intentionally or not, to mean something else in a native language, often with a humorous effect. An example is a Russian joke in which the song 'Can't Buy Me Love' was announced as "???? ???? ???" (pronounced [kin? bab?e lom]), which roughly translates as 'Throw a crowbar to the old woman'".

Martin are you kidding me?! is anybody even out there anymore?! Posted at 5:51 PM Nov 17 view more
Kevin was just reviewing a report from Dewberry and of course we thought of you. Just wanted to drop a line. We are in Scranton, PA now... but if you ever come back to New York to visit give us a buzz and we'll get together! or if you want to visit lovely Scranton, Pa, that can be done as well. :)
I've finally read Confederacy of Dunces. A great book made even greater by the fact that we know so many of the areas described in it. Thanks for recommending it to me. I especially like how everything worked out in the end.
We're pregnant...and I think that's Captain Snuggles, not Mr. Snuggles for your information (he also goes by the Snuggle-nator). :) We want to have a halloweenie shin-dig (on the actual holiday). You and Miss Laday should go, and be drunk and loud.
naw they're still doing that, I just couldn't stand Prescott anymore. Oh and you just missed Shelby (she's from the Irvine office) hooking us up and moving us all to the Marriott Residence Inn. We had stoves, full size fridges, flat screen TV's, couches, an awesome breakfast, snacks in the evening and access to a communal patio and grill. There's more but I don't want to rub it in. Sort of makes me regret leaving though.
I will be living in the parking lot of the Staples Center in LA, definitely on the 28th of May, but maybe a couple of days earlier. Come and visit me! I'll make you a sammitch.
hi, don't you think it is inappropriate for you and Paul to make love to one another in MY comments section ? I mean, isn't my page supposed to be all about moi?
