I always get a kick out of those "lost in translation" errors, too! This is a good one

I can't find a picture of it, but when I lived in Japan, there are warning lables on hair dryers that (when roughly translated) read, do not use while scuba diving.

Very good advice indeed, since if you DID use a hair dryer while scuba diving that would be the last time you would scuba dive (or do anything else)

Well, there was an article recently on FoxNews about some people setting the new world record for the number of simultaneous scuba diving ironers. No joke.

I try to avoid ironing even when I'm not scuba diving

They had a video of it......I am not really sure how to describe it besides 'disturbing'.

I just did a search for it and read about it but didn't see the video...I found out the secret to living while ironing underwater though...each scuba diver took a ironing board, a wrinkled article of clothing, and an 'electricity-less' iron for the venture. I guess they 'smushed' the clothes flat instead of using heat

That makes me feel not 'as weird'.
