So sorry for this really off topic post, and my humblest apologies to those
who feel offended... I found this sometime back and have been having quite
a lark with it. To those who havent please read it out loud to do most of
the "translations"... :)))

After that, can anyone figure out what is "Ass ruin torino fee"?? Thats the
only one that slips by me.....

room-service, at a hotel in Asia which was recorded and published in the Far
