I actually have a real one - a badly translated cover for a thermometer/extra key holder. One phrase that I remember (in a list of good things about the product): "No more rock or stone turning to the gardener."

To this day, I do not know what that means at all.

If the condom proves defective are you supposed to return it?

The sad thing is that if they weren't listed, there probably would be a lawsuit filed and the plaintiff would win! It's called common sense and we've practically outlawed it over time!

Steph that is the truth. It is the most amazing thing I have seen. People shouldn't be allowed to sue companies for their own stupidity.

Those were funny!! Oh..about the Fender guitar, they started making Fenders overseas in 85 or 86 so the general public could afford a professional guitar at a reasonable price (around $400) I bought my Fender stratocaster in 1978....it's 100% AMERICAN and It's worth $3000!! :38:
