The "Translate that dictation" contest

Because I can't type much anymore, I use a dictation system, and sometimes it can lead to some pretty funny stuff, especially when I'm working and somebody strikes up a conversation with me. But even with the microphone on, it usually doesn't pick up anything recognizable unless I'm actually wearing the headset. But I just got off the phone from a rather heated conversation, and when I came back, I found the microphone had decided that I had said the following:

To go and he you where I seen you in on ay he lied in now he so you don't have a reworking that let you know a known as because he is so you he youe yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah he he he wanted to and from a law he he he yeah I like to I. I. unrefined type and yeah yeah yeah yeah so you see him in runs at a theater in I reeling from a zoo in Hong Kong thinking and version should not be I know I have and he's very little is is the yeah yeah yeah okay well I see him in line now you as an on the yeah actually yeah yeah yeah yeah okay for him in the who is in Italy in a & l

So here's the contest: you decide what it was I actually said, or the very least the subject of the conversation, and drop it in a comment to this post. one month from today, on April 29, I will pick the answer that is either closest, or most humorous/interesting, and that person will get a prize. I'm not quite sure what it will be yet; probably something like a $10 gift certificate from Amazon, unless anybody has any other suggestions.

Go to!
