No S Translates!

I guess I shouldn't have made that crack about non-native English speakers...

No mere blog here, my rabbi father in law tells me this is a leading Israeli newspaper:

He says it basically translates just the rules and says "this sounds better in English."

My norwegian is a little rusty:

And No-s is really big in Japan, it seems (at least from the number of referring sites, no idea what they're saying):

And this was all just yesterday!

Wow, Reinhard, thats totally awesome! You know you've hit the big time now. You're bona fide international, three continents and at least 4 languages! Woo hoo!

You're sitting on a gold-mine. The internet has procured for you a ready-made customer base. To paraphrase an old movie cliche..

"write it.. and they will come." :D

:!: If you don't write it soon, someone will 'paraphrase' the No-S concept and write it for you. Except you'll get none of the credit, and more importantly, none of the cash!

Reinhard,

You'd better get ready. I think you're going to need an agent....

Very cool Reinhard! :wink:
(I just wonder what the heck that large weird plaid colored condom-looking thing is on the Norwegian site...)

Enjoy your "Man of the World" status! Yay NoS!
Love,

Wow. I can't read any of those sites, of course, but CONGRATS! You're a worldwide phenomenon. :D But I'm with Deb -- what the heck IS that plaid condom-shaped thing on the Norwegian site?!?
