The brow of the hill where Tamatea, the man with the big knees who slid, climbed and swallowed mountains, to travel the land, played his flute to his loved one.

Eh, my wording was off...

but if you found it on wiki... it is worthwhile reading too.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taumat...henuakitanatahu

And in it they say

quote:
The name on the sign that marks this hill is 'Taumatawhakatangihangakoauauotamateaturipukakapikimaungahoronukupokaiwhenuakitanatahu', which translates roughly as The summit where Tamatea, the man with the big knees, the climber of mountains, the land-swallower who travelled about, played his flute to his loved one

Guess my version is a little different. Kinda like interpreting the bible. So this must be fake then.

Take a trip to Austria, they know what they like there...

Austria is the best place ever. First of all, there's this village called Fucking. Then, there are those guys from Austria whose surname is Hell. Fucking hell, now I understand why Austria is not a German state: Not even the Bundesrepublik could manhandle the naughty Austrian ethos, and history is there to prove that

There's a little town called Hell in Michigan
