Well, the meanings of words change so fast nowdays. And you never know what a word might man in Germany: Like "Handy". It´s the standard term for a mobile around here , isn´t it?

*Hobbles into the darkest corner.*
Sheep! Here sheep...
No, Handy makes sense to me for a mobile. It is, after all, a handy thing to have. Where are these sheep you want removed? I can't see a thing...
*Bumps into someone or something..* Ooops, sorry!
