I don't understand why the editor would censor out the word "spider"

sorry, couldn't resist....

try this for all your translation needs...but be sure to copy and paste and translate back the other way.

Thanks guys ... the translation site is great. If I come up with a name I can pronounce.....
Any of you have names for your barking, howling, money grabbing joy rides ? Yes I mean the car not the wife.

Get this .. according to the translator "joy ride" is "Freude Fahrt" in German. I think this may be very insightful.

There was a long discussion about this on bay912, someone even provided definitive proof that all 912's are of the female persuasion. If you look at 912 in a mirror, or something like that, it spell "sie" which is loosly translated in German to "she".

My wife affectionately named mine Little ***** as in "That Little *****......." She wants to put license a plate frame on it with that name, I told her fine but she gets to wear the "Big *****" T-shirt, still haven't seen either things turn up.

Craig,

912 in the mirror is indeed "sie", and that's not a LOOSE translation. It is exact 'she' in German...
