Google Translate seems to translate it surprisingly well. I would just go with that and tweak the grammar to fix it up a bit. Translating it from scratch might just be a waste of time.
Derp.
I tried [CTRL] + [+] and [CTRL] + Click + [+], but I didn't think of [CTRL] + Scroll. :P Thanks.
To clarify what I said, my browser allows me to translate the page, but I can't read the text because it is too small. However, I am able to hover over the translated text to see the original text (in French) of which I can understand a fair bit. It would be a lot easier to be able to read the translated version, but I can't find a way to enlarge the image/text.

What would happen if you undid your wishes? Would they just no longer apply from then on, or would you be back where you started? And if the latter, would you get five more wishes?

Hopefully I won't regret leaving a wide open path straight to the end of the board in columns 8 and 9.

Don't worry, as fun as Shogi may be, my life doesn't revolve around the Shogi board either, so I'll survive. ;)
I'll give a short analysis too, if you don't mind, just because it helps me understand the game better myself.
I think you made a mistake by allowing darth_ender's queen a huge amount of coverage on the board. At turn 3, he set himself up to move into the centre of the board. The fact that he risked his knight to take a pawn makes that apparent. He was baiting you so he could get out in the open. Once he was on d5 on turn 5 he was covering more than half the board with his queen and was in a position to move just about wherever he wanted. You forced him out of that position with your knight, but he moved into you territory. You did a good job getting him out of there, but then he started moving bishops around, taking over the centre of the board. Around turn 9, it might have been wise to move your knight out to defend against his oncoming pieces, but you ended up making a line of defense on row 3 instead. I think this was probably a bad idea since it allowed ender to trap you. After that there wasn't much you could do to effectively come back.
Hopefully that's accurate and I didn't sound too critical.

Although possibly selfish, those would be interesting wishes. You could do all kinds of things you couldn't normally do in real life (like jumping off skyscrapers without a parachute and surviving), and you'd be able to read a lot of books...wait, would you still have to work full time (before you retired, but that would come way late since you'd have to save up extra money) to support yourself and your family? 'Cause that could really limit your reading time and I suspect it would be a long five hundred years...
Then again, eating would be unnecessary, as would a great many other things. So maybe it wouldn't be so bad after all and you could still retire at a reasonable age.

Wow, I made a nice little triangle there. :P

It's working now, but unfortunately it's the wrong kind of movement IMO. A flashing light might work better.

Well...we do believe that we'll get bodies at the second coming of Christ and the final judgement, but they'll be glorified bodies and not quite the same as our bodies. Since there will be a new heaven and a new earth, its debatable whether we'll be in the same type of heaven or not. If there's a new earth too, perhaps heaven and earth will be merged into one thus making bodies possible in heaven. I'm not quite sure how the whole body thing works, given that heaven is more of a spiritual realm than a physical one.
I knew you would expect that, but I didn't see much point in playing with your pawn since I doubt it would have accomplished more than losing an extra piece. By allowing you to move your Pawn ahead again, it's easier for me to get my Lion out of the way.

I suppose I would wish for them to go to purgatory and then heaven. With purgatory in the mix, they would have to be saints before they got in. But that just goes to show that I need to be more careful when I make wishes. :)
Also, since there wouldn't be any physical bodies in heaven (it might be wise to specify that in my wish as well), there wouldn't be much to molest.

Hopefully I'm not overlooking anything. I don't want to find that my Lion has suddenly been trapped and that I waited too long to move it...
Maybe it's my browser, or maybe I'm just being stupid, but is there a way to make it bigger? I can understand a fair bit of it, but to read it, I have to translate the page (with a webpage translator) and hover over the teeny-tiny text to read the French. :P

1) Enough archaeology to convince non-Mormons? Probably not. Enough to support the faith of Mormons? Yes, and far more than non-believers realize.
Fascinating. I'm going to have to take a look at that later.

4) Peanut butter? H1N1? How could what spread so quickly? ;) I suspect you mean my faith, but I'm not sure if I'm correct. If that is your question, my favorite answer would be, "Because it's true, and God has a hand in it." Other reasons might be our extensive missionary program, its welfare programs (governments should take note), its education programs, its involvement of members in all aspects, its broad appeal, its fascinating history, its family values....
I believe he was joking around. ...I suppose you could be playing along.
