i think that your main problem is practice,u haven`t got it...u shall find russian friends not only in the web,but on your work,at the street...where else??ask your neighbors,maybe the`re russians.... practice and everything`s gonna be OK!!!

I'm happy to hear that you understand But with summer coming right up. Do you know what that means? That's right.The summer workers will be coming to town. I will be able to practice more Russian with them. If I could add ten more phrases to my speech, Then I would feel more comfortable traveling to Russia

You don't have to wait for summer. Go to any Go-Go Bar and practice Russian a year around.

I live a long ways away from a *ittie flop bar. The closest place is Manchester N.H.. But they wear pasties. Then their is the Foxy Lady in Brocton MA. But the best place is in Mashpee, MA. Zachery's. It's on an Indian resevation. No holds barred at that place. Of course I could always go to Sherbrook Canada. But thet's crossing a border. What a hassle that is. Then of course I could maybe get a Russian wife. Cook, clean, and give me Russian lessons 24-7. Maybe not 24-7. I'm sure I could find other things to do with her .

Сегодня мне показали прикол: 1. Идём на http://www.translate.ru/text.asp?lang=ru
2. Вводим в окошечке англо-русского перевода фразу: Our cat gave birth to three kittens - two whites and one black. (Нормальный перевод: Наша кошка родила трех котят - двух белых и одного черного.)
3. Жмём кнопку "Перевести"
4. Наслаждаемся результатом!.. 
Just saw the fuuny thing in the online treanslator: 1. Go to: http://www.translate.ru/text.asp?lang=ru 2. Insert in the fist window that phrase: Our cat gave birth to three kittens - two whites and one black. 3. Press burron "Перевести"/"translate" 4. Now find the nearest russian who could explain the maning of created translation. 5. Ejoy the result.
