[Dennis R. Preston]

Barry,

Try this old Polish proverb out on your guide:

LIFE IS LIKE A BABY'S SHIRT: SHORT AND SHITTY.

>    Sopot had a bicycle race today and the streets were a mess, so
>I'll visit there first thing tomorrow morning.
>    Two from my tour guide (the same one; he's a student):
>
>RACE OF TURTLES--Two slow cars blocking both lanes of a highway.
>
>LIKE AN OLD MAN'S ASS--The weather is cold, humid, and windy.
