Good luck and well wishes to your step mom.

My issue, though will be painful while healing, I will be happy to have taken care of. It is a cyst that rests on my upper tailbone that has inflamed twice this year already and makes sitting and laying down in certain positions painful. Maybe TMI, but oh well.

I'm just glad it's not too serious.

well...it appears that I have less than a year to get my German to conversational again..... I was informed by Mrs Wu we will likely be going to Germany next year..... and communication is up to me...since I learned it in college (many many years ago) and by heritage I am mostly German....not sure I agree with the logic...... she only handles Mandarin...and Japanese if necessary

Good luck with the Deutsch. I took it in college and it's utterly vanished except for a memory of how fun verb placement was in sentences and a few words such as Gemütlichkei, Weltschmerz and Angst which held meaning.

It's pretty bad when South Park can show the History Channel showing a show about aliens being at the first Thanksgiving, and it's funny because the History Channel gets way too much into alien conspiracies.

Ich habe weniger als einem Jahr Konversation auf Deutsch zu sein
Leider Google Translate und ein Smartphone Sie nur so weit zu bekommen
Wie jeder, der Deutsch spricht, der dies liest, wird Ihnen sagen,

I have less than a year to be conversational in German
Unfortunately, Google translate and a smartphone only get you so far
As anyone who speaks German, who reads this, will tell you,

Google Translate sucks. Babylon is much better, as it offers a dictionary sort of function. And this site is even better as you gives you the conjugated verb forms. http://conjugator.reverso.net/conjugation-english.html
Viel Glück!

I have a better idea, anyone know where I can get a Babel fish

The Babel fish is small, yellow, leech-like, and probably the oddest thing in the universe. It feeds on brain wave energy, absorbing all unconscious frequencies and then excreting telepathically a matrix formed from the conscious frequencies and nerve signals picked up from the speech centers of the brain, the practical upshot of which is that if you stick one in your ear, you can instantly understand anything said to you in any form of language: the speech you hear decodes the brain wave matrix

Babylon
Ich habe eine bessere Idee, irgend jemand weiß(kennt), wo ich einen Fisch von Babel bekommen kann

Google Translate
Ich habe eine bessere Idee, jemand, wo kann ich eine Babel Fish erhalten

English
I have a better idea, anyone know where I can get a Babel Fish

I haven't used it, but I'm guessing it's the same with any online translation, which isn't good for anything more than a word.

I've never liked Bill Maher's stand up, I didn't really care for Religioulous, but yet I'm giving Real Time a chance.

I'd never ever recommend using passage translation with Arabic to other language. It will just give you a brain freeze and won't make sense what so ever.

Okay, I'm gonna turn in, hit the sack and get some sleep. But before that, I'm gonna grab a bite and find something to eat. Laterz!

But those require something slimy actually going in your ear. It actually sounds pretty gross. I'd rather have a universal translator, or, even better, the TARDIS.

Those "Truth" anti-smoking commercials make me want to pick smoking back up.
