The Pocket Guide to Mischief


Winston Churchill (1874-1965) was "giving a speech in Paris, and he tried to say 'When I consider what is behind me' in French. His audience started chuckling, and after his speech, Churchill learned that he had actually said 'When I consider my behind, I can state that it is divided into two equal parts." Or in French "Quand je considere mon derriere, je constate qu'il est divise en deuz parties egales."
