Bloviating Zeppelin

(in-ep-toc'-ra-cy) - a system of government where the least capable to lead are elected by the least capable of producing, and where the members of society least likely to sustain themselves or succeed, are rewarded with goods and services paid for by the confiscated wealth of a diminishing number of producers.

Engrish


I've always thought that, if I had extra time and/or the ability to do so (or upon my retirement), I'd want to start a company that did nothing more than write Instruction Manuals for various devices and pieces of equipment. In my opinion, this is an horrible vacuum that needs to be filled by logic and sensibility.

-- Primarily because most manuals utilize English as a second, third or fourth language OR because most manual writers have little if ANY concept of how to relate the product to the average consumer.

In other words: HRITIN PRAIN ENGRISH, HRITEBOY.

An absolutely WONDERFUL warning tag I observed on the Tank scooter owned by my brother in San Diego:



Proof of my point doesn't get any better than that.
