    Maybe he just wanted it translated into Russian but forgot to specify. Yes, I think that is it. It is the only possible explanation.

    Young people doing stupid things don't make the world turn round, whisky makes it turn twice as fast.

    I'll just translate the sentence into Russian:

    Молодые люди часто делают такие глупые вещи, что весь мир летит кувырком!
    Could you please occasionally correct my stupid errors!
    Korrigiert bitte ab und zu meine dummen Fehler!

    Guin, вы не правы.
