Oh my! A leaking elevator! Or just a veeerrrry slooooow one? Best to visit the rest room before pushing the button!
I saw a poster in Wales this summer announcing "Stoned Baked Pizzas". I wonder if the bakers threw stones at the pizzas, or were drugged when they baked them, or maybe put more herbs than just oregano on them, or ...
Half-marathon over. Sabbatical year over. It's back to "sacking shirt and oat cakes" as they say here.

I also found
"during the arrival and departure of the Hyatt"
amusing. Really? The hotel is arriving and departing? What if it's not back yet when I need to check in?

Oh man - thank you for the reminder to check in at engrish.com every once in a while. I need a good laugh like that occasionally.

Sometimes, the simplest of things are the most difficult.
I've been re-writing copies of our web pages which I'm coding... I'm just so numb... So I can understand these idiotic mistakes. And sometimes spell checks can be very dangerous.
