Default Tenjooberrymuds

Politically Incorrect -- but amusing?

I had to read it, so you do too. Hint...just go slow.



Don't worry about the Subject "Tenjooberrymuds" will make sense after you read the following.


I was recently in Miami and decided to learn the Spanish language, so I could understand the check-outs at McDonalds.

My next move is to learn Indian, so I can understand my doctors and the person that answers the phone when I have a warranty problem.
Yep, by the time I read this, I was able to understand the 1st line.


"TENJOOBERRYMUDS"...
In order to continue getting-by in America (our home land), we all need to learn the NEW English language! Practice by reading the following conversation until you are able to understand the term "TENJOOBERRYMUDS".


With a little patience, you'll be able to fit right in.
Now, here goes...



The following is a telephone exchange between maybe you as a hotel guest and room-service somewhere in the good old U S A today.......



Room Service : "Morrin. Roon sirbees."

Guest : "Sorry, I thought I dialed room-service."

Room Service: " Rye . Roon sirbees...morrin! Joowish to oddor sunteen???"

Guest: "Uh..... Yes, I'd like to order bacon and eggs.."

Room Service: "Ow July den?"

Guest: ".....What??"

Room Service: "Ow July den?!?... Pryed, boyud, poochd?"

Guest: "Oh, the eggs! How do I like them? Sorry.. Scrambled, please."

Room Service: "Ow July dee baykem? Crease?"

Guest: "Crisp will be fine."

Room Service: "Hokay. An Sahn toes?"

Guest: "What?"

Room Service: "An toes. July Sahn toes?"

Guest: "I... Don't think so."

RoomService: "No? Judo wan sahn toes???"

Guest: "I feel really bad about this, but I don't know what 'judo wan sahn toes' means."

RoomService: "Toes! Toes!...Why Joo don Juan toes? Ow bow Anglish moppin we bodder?"

Guest: "Oh, English muffin!!! I've got it! You were saying 'toast'... Fine...Yes, an English muffin will be fine."

RoomService: "We bodder?"

Guest: "No, just put the bodder on the side."

RoomService: "Wad?!?"

Guest: "I mean butter... Just put the butter on the side."

RoomService: "Copy?"

Guest: "Excuse me?"

RoomService: "Copy...tea..meel?"

Guest: "Yes. Coffee, please... And that's everything."

RoomService: "One Minnie. Scramah egg, crease baykem, Anglish moppin, we bodder on sigh and copy ..... Rye ??"

Guest: "Whatever you say.."

RoomService: "Tenjooberrymuds."

Guest: "You're welcome"



Remember I said "By the time you read through this YOU WILL UNDERSTAND 'TENJOOBERRYMUDS' ".......and you do, don't you!

Thank you.
I ended up in Abergavenny on my birthday (Friday) eating at the the Walnut Tree Inn (Michelin Star!) but passed near all the places we visited on last years "summer outing" to the Forest of Dean on the way there on Friday and coming back today.

Yesterday I pushed the "single track road" profile of the S8 to the max - all the way from Hay-on-Wye south following Offa's Dyke through Capel-y-Ffin and Llanthony to Llanvihangel Crucorney. About 20 miles with barely a passing place and lots of stone walls!

Also climbed the Sugar Loaf (Abergavenny) today.

In Miami they greet you in Spanish first, then Tenjooberrymuds second. --

Miami is a great city to do business in the USA, as its so near to the US.
