I've done the thing where to translate an English phrase into one language, then another, then another, then still another, then back to English. It can be very funny.

My line about Glenn Beck sentence if you put it through every Google Translate language (except Chinese and Hebrew since those seemed to really screw things up):

If you serdytsya Monkeys. gurenbetkueul know.

There's a band from NY called The Fiery Furnaces. On their last tour, I bought an illustrated book they put out that contains the lyrics from their most lyric-heavy albums - "Blueberry Boat" - put through translation machines. Good stuff.
