As I was surfing the web today, I came across a rather useful (?) page dealing with translations. Apparently, if it's more than a simple phrase AND if you translate to another language (other than English) and then back again, you get some very curious statements. Read on....

BTW, this really happened to me today! =-)

Original English Text: Oh man, what a day! I dyed my hair with an older packaged dye that I had in the cupboard. I wondered why I still had that same stupid one & never used it. Well, low and behold, my hair is now Auburn & very dark! I dye my hair to restore my original hair color, which is a light red, almost a strawberry blonde. Great, you can't color over color so if I want to lighten it, now I'll have to pay $15 for a lightener! Oh my God!!!
