Here is the little movie I mentioned recently. It's about why it's hard to get ketchup out of a [glass] bottle, and how to make it easier. This is important stuff!!!! The file is 18 MB so please be patient. It's cute & worth waiting for.

Ketchup animation

The script was in German but the director asked for an American accent (I didn't like that but you gotta do what yer told).

Thanks to Rowell Gorman for the sound of the glass bottle being thwacked!

"The weather is good so I think I would be attacked Poland" Shocked

Google Translator must be on the fritz.

I think it's: Bitte mein Steak kochen, bis sie wie schuhleder.

well, how does one get ketchup out of a bottle more easily?

that is great, mary!

and yes, google translator is a hoot. i used it yesterday to translate a friend's italian and got something like "i do look forward typically" instead of "i'll be there."

I'm just glad they invented the squeeze bottle.

MUCH easier than learning German.

Mary that was so cute! Laugh

BTW:

I ran into the same thing last week with the name of a French Champagne that the client wanted said the American way... That's OK! The check came in less than a week! Laugh

Thank-you my friends. I don't think you have to understand German to enjoy it - I just love those little ketchup molelcules holding hands!

Todd, it's best you did not understand ketchup in those days. Your life might have been very different. Love that visual Smile

I loved it.

I'd never thought about ketchup molecules before.

I just think you are a remarkable lady, Mary. Sometimes, I believe I speak English as if it were a second language and I was born here.
Good on you, girl.
