   Sounds like you've been expanding your horizons lately! On that note, go ahead   
   and install Windows, it doesn't bite. Maybe you can get a glimpse of the   
   elusive blue screen of death once again. ;)

   I think I went to run one of your taglines (even though you already do it   
   under the original) through Google Translate, and it was one of the first   
   sites to pop up. So I got stuck there reading a bunch of them for a little   
   bit, and sent one back to you to see if you'd notice.   
      
   Regards,   
   Nick
