That is a good one!

Another one,

If practice makes perfect and nobody's perfect then, why practice?

Practice makes perfect and Nobody's perfect.

@Alex: Me recordaste una tarjeta de felicitación para amistades cercanas: "Siempre has estado conmigo cuando estoy triste, cuando estoy enfermo, cuando me pasa algo malo... ¿no darás mala suerte?"

Hello Herman.


Really I didn't understand exactly you meant there?

Work is health, The let the sick work.

Si funciona es sano, entonces dejaste que la enferdad funcione?


Please if you could explain me that are you exactly saying there.

Really my translation wasn't very fas of the reality of your translation, yes as you have said if the sick works, then let them sick works so, then causality I get sick, I will have to work without medical attention.


Hahaha.
