cimorenethis is the best sentence i've read since that one in the lotrips parody* about viggo's vowels knocking each other over and helping each other up.
unfortunately it's in swedish.
"om du någon gång har varit på ett kalas, där det plotsligt har kommit in en häst, så vet du, att en del människor då spärrar upp ögonen och liksom hoppar till, precis some om de aldrig hade sett en häst förr."
and even more unfortunately i don't know all the words and expressions in it in english, but provisionally i will say that it says:
"if you've ever been at a party when a horse has suddenly come in, then you know that a lot of people will (something their eyes) and (like-or-as-if jump to), just as if they had never seen a horse before."
and i think you get the gist.
"wednesday the 31st of october, when emil [did something to] his horse and scared the life out of mrs petrell and all of vimmerby" by astrid lindgren
ps: i had to leave the lunch table just to come up here to the second floor foreign languages hallway just to type this up before i forgot it.
pps: wax put up our two new bookshelves in the livingroom and for some reason it looks a lot nicer than before. now if she ever does buy a cd player, at least she'll have somewhere to put it.
*it was called "limpidity" and was by i think kendra, and it was the funniest. thing. ever, and it can be found on my recs page in the appropriate section, i think.
