In 1994 Soccer World Cup, Orlando (where Janet and I lived at the time) hosted a group that included Dutch national team. Orlando vendors were ready for the onslought of Morrocan, Dutch and Belgian fans. Unfortunately, the vendors assumed that the Dutch team would use their national colors (red, white and blue), rather than the national soccer team color of orange. It's good to see that ignorance regarding the World Cup isn't isolated to America (and in this case the manufacturer also needs to learn how to spell Holland).

Our last night on the island Lombok for our holiday, we needed to find a restaurant after the place we had hoped to go to fell through. We ended up at a nice cantina-type restaurant with a full menu. After sitting down to order, we realized this place decided on the phrase below as its motto (the waiters and waitresses wore shirts with the same phrase complete with misspelling). Regardless, the food was still pretty good.
