Man who run in front of car get tired.

Man who eat many prunes get good run for money.

Baseball is wrong - man with four balls cannot walk.

War doesn't determine who is right, war determines who is left.

Wife who put husband in doghouse soon find him in cathouse.

Man who fight with wife all day get no piece at night.

It take many nails to build crib but one screw to fill it.

Man who drive like hell bound to get there.

Man who lives in glass house should change clothes in basement.

Man who fishes in other man's well often catches crabs.

Don't eat the snow where the huskies go!

Support bacteria -- it's the only culture some people have!

Man who lose key to apartment not get new key.

He who sitteth on an upturned tack shall surely rise.

Even the greatest of whales is helpless in middle of desert.

Man who sit on tack get point!

Man who jumps off cliff, jumps to conclusion

I once had a Chinese girlfriend. The sex was okay, but an hour later I'd be horny again. One night I told her I wanted to do a "69" - she looked at me funny and said "What? You want beef with brocorri?"

I have spent six weeks in China so far this year. My wife is over there while we wait for the immigration process to grind forward..

Anyway I make it a habit to take pictures of interesting translations, etc...

This is from a menu of a restaurant on Ghost St.



My wife says that translation it literal, i.e. go into a restaurant, and if the waiter/waitress asks you what you want, and you say something like "I'm not sure what I want" (speculating) The kitchen will make you sort of a pot luck supper..

This is from the same restaurant.




And finally.... again my wife tells me that this is a veggie dumpling, she could not tell me what the veggie was... but the literal translation was what you see...



She and I were both LOL at the menu in this restaurant.. BTW the food was really good and very cheap..
