I have no skill in the Japanese language. Thanks for
straightening
me
out that "sayonara" is the Japanese equivalent of the Yiddish
word
for
"penis." I'm shocked to think that all those JA's were were
repeating
the word "penis" over and over again on the air. And I always
thought
they were the most polite amateurs.
They are. But the point is you don't know Japanese, yet you
feel
it's "OK" to say Japanese words in non-Japanese conversation. You
and
Lennie don't seem to have the same opinions on word useage when
non-Lennites are involved in the act.
So the next time a JA gives me a "sayonara" I should say "good bye
penis?"
If you'd like to, Brian. But on what antenna are you going to do
it?
And remember, if it's a JR6, do NOT say "sayonara"...They're "not
really Japanese" according to Lennie.
