Retard or Sin Hunter?
We keep asking people to vote on stuff...like Jake's Beard, for example...and no one responds, so I am hoping that people will comment on this posting. We spent a few hours in the Istanbul airport on our way to Egypt..since, apparently, you can't fly from Israel to Egypt directly...and I walked over to the airport pharmacy to purchase some bug repellent for Jake. Once there a logo caught my eye and I took a picture of it..and asked the woman at the pharmacy what it was. She blushed and went and got a male assistant who explained to me that it was a logo for erectile dysfunction products. First of all...who would have thunk that the Turks needed this? Secondly...well, it did get my attention so I started perusing the section in more detail.
A product caught my attention: RETARD. I guess that it's supposed to indicate that it "retards" ejaculation...but I wonder if they know what the word means or why sales of the product in English speaking countries are...well....soft. (Sorry could not help myself). So I sent the picture to a few people at work (as a point of reference for why it's important to get good translators)....and a couple fo folks pointed out that the product next to RETARD was even better..it is called SIN HUNTER.
Please send us your comments!
So our question is: Which do you like best... Retard or Sin Hunter?
We'd love to hear your feedback...just click on "comment" at the end of the posting.

I vote Retard...not that I need the product but I'd buy it as a gift for it's originality, however I would change the number 907 to 69...it would seem more appropiate dont you think...
Anyhow I'm not to sure that your explaination why you were browsing in that sector of the pharmacy is that plausible...
Clearly Sin Hunter is the winner here. Not that any of us have to hunt too hard to find Sin, or need a can of it to get there, but you never know.....
Figures that Alex would vote Retard. ;-)
Happy Birthday Alf!
I "toss" my vote in for Sin Hunter. I wonder what the product just to the right of Retard was? A good ole can of ass whoopin?
OMG that is funny!! did you buy them? I mean... as a souvenir of course! By the way, HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY Birthday, and much love to the both of you. PS Jake unbelievable beard :) you definitively beat Alfredo in the hair department (not that thats hard to do)
Definitely Retard.
