1158 - What could go wrong?


What could go wrong?

"the spirit is willing,
but the flesh is weak."
- Matthew 26:41

As machine algorithms invade out life,
Translation provides a challenge.

The gin is quite good
But the meat has gone flaccid.
Translation error?

  7. This puts me in mind of a dear friend who loved the salty pickled okra I would send her from down south, which she would chop and add to her martini. Sorry about that meat! Fun write.
