Strauss's Swan Song: Unwanted Exposure!

2 comments:

  1. I have a remote association to "Strauss and Exposure."

    I had a French teacher in college who told a story about an inexpert translator who had translated the phrase "The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak" into "The wine is fresh, but the meat is rancid."
