In preparation for the 2008 Olympics, the Chinese government is attempting clean up the, often funny, English mistranslations that pepper the countries public signs.

Funny stuff! In the U.K. they call it Chinglish. I guess that's more politically correct.

Haha, yeah, Engrish. That's some good stuff. Most of that Engrish is Japanese anyway, who really have an obsession with American culture. Must be our hot dogs.
