Didn't the same program translate "The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak" to "The Vodka is strong, but the meat is rotten"?

Oh.. Henry of the ankles.....was that the way it went?

  An old joke illustrates the ambiguity of English by telling of a
  computer program that translates English into Russian and
  back; when someone inputs "Out of sight, out of mind",
  the machine spits out "Invisible madman".  (Come to think
  of it, did some Vincent Price movie have that title?).
