okay, but let's not lose sight of possibly THE most important phrase in any language :

"my hovercraft is full of eels !"

It all reminds me of young Italian guy in Paris, knocking on a closed bus' door crying: "Fermez! Fermez! Je veux salir!"

In Italian "Ferma! Ferma! Voglio salire!" means "Stop! Stop! I want to get in!" and it sounds almost the same...

He, he, and have you seen the link to the tongue twitters?
Please repeat after me
Si six scies scie six-cent-six scies, ces six-cent-six scies seront sciés.
If six saws saw six hundred six saws, those six hundred six saws will be sawed.

And here´s an Italian tongue twitter:
Se l'arcivescovo di Costantinopoli si disarcivescoviscostantinopolizzasse, vi disarcivescoviscostantinopolizzereste voi come si è disarcivescoviscostantinopolizzato l'arcivescovo di Costantinopoli?
If the archibishop of Constantinople debishopconstantinoplized himself, would you debishopconstantinoplize yourselves in the same way as the archibishop of Constantinople debishopconstantinoplized?

Edit: Can anyone tell me what an archibishop is???

well if it's twisters you want...

si les chaussettes de l'archiduchesse sont sèches, sont-elles sèches ou archi-sèches ?

(if the arch-duchesse's socks are dry, are they dry or arch-dry ? okay, i know, it doesn't work at all in english.)

i may try that italian one some time after having a few drinks. i think that will help.

I am French and I approve this message.

Also, thanks for the "Oh my god! There is an axe in my head!" link, it will be handy for the people I meet when I'm angry.

Well I'm guessing "salir" is an infinitive, so you could say, "I want to soil!" and it would still be grammatically correct, and more hilarious

This kind of reminds me of the episode of scrubs where carla's brother teaches The Todd (pervy guy) a pickup line in Spanish:
"Tengo herpes genital.....para ti!"

I'm really liking the new episodes on ABC. But I don't want JD and Eliot together, I want her to be with Scott Foley's character (the Sea world guy).
