A Weekly Summary of Polywater® News of Incredible Importance
Issue #728


          Polywater's Communication Division proudly introduces new PedFloor™ Structural Foam Sealant Barrier.

Polywater® PedFloor™ Structural Foam creates a barrier to protect pedestals and cabinets containing standby power supplies, splices, switches and other gear.

Polywater® PedFloor™ helps prevent outages and service disruptions by creating a resilient and impermeable barrier that keeps out moisture and stops rodents, snakes, and insects from burrowing up through earthen gaps into the enclosure, potentially causing costly outages or safety hazards to crews.

The strong, lightweight seal withstands freeze-thaw cycles and environmental extremes. It is compatible with cable jacket materials and will not corrode metal.

New PedFloor sells under catalog prefix "PF" in kit form. Prices are already listed on the latest price sheets. We're ready to go.


The Joke
                              Yet More Foreign Signs.   These are actual signs in various countries written for English-speaking travelers: 1) Hotel brochure, Italy: "This hotel is renowned for its peace and solitude. In fact, crowds from all over the world flock here to enjoy its solitude." 2) Hotel lobby, Bucharest: "The lift is being fixed for the next day. During that time we regret that you will be unbearable." 3) Hotel elevator, Paris: "Please leave your values at the front desk." 4) Hotel, Yugoslavia: "The flattening of underwear with pleasure is the job of the chambermaid." 5) Hotel, Japan: "You are invited to take advantage of the chambermaid." 6) In the lobby of a Moscow hotel across from a Russian Orthodox monastery: "You are welcome to visit the cemetary where famous Russian and Soviet composers, artists, and writers are buried daily except Thursday." 7) Hotel catering to skiers, Austria: "Not to perambulate the corridors in the hours of repose in the boots of ascension." 8) Taken from a menu, Poland: "Salad a firm's own make; limpid red beet soup with cheesy dumplings in the form of a finger; roasted duck let loose; beef rashers beaten in the country people's fashion." 9) Supermarket, Hong Kong: "For your convenience, we recommend courteous, efficient self-service." 10) From the Soviet Weekly: "There will be a Moscow exhibition of art by 15,000 Soviet Republic painters and sculptors. These were executed over the past two years."
