This sentence is a bit vague, but that's not at all what the Russian translates to. "Ja tvoj sluga, ja tvoj rabotnik" is "I'm your slave, I'm your worker." And people have a tendency to hear all sorts of things when they play records backward. C. -- cspot@hyperreal.com (Chris.Hilker) "I feel like I'm being electrocuted."
