Google actually did a good job in translating it. I spent the past week in Germany and some of the tourist brochures were quite funny after a trip to googletranslate :-)
Google translates names - like Harz - too, so....
Der Harz
Der Harz ist die höchste Erhebung Norddeutschlands.
is translated into:
The resin
The resin is the highest peak of northern Germany.
Still it is a huge help. Just like you I've often translated a review in a language I don't read well into something useful (and/or funny).
