I won..
Well, as yall know I played on Saturday Nov 12, 2005..
cause I could mostly and after feverishly working on web sites, trying to get a 3 column to stay put.. damn css…
I needed a break..
So..
I went visiting. I found this Latin challenge. I found the source of the challenge
Epigrammata - Liber 09 ·
Martialis
http://www.gmu.edu/departments/fld/CLASSICS/mart.html
the the poster of the challenge accused me of freakin cheating!
So I quote
“Ok… while we’re in a Latin mood, the first person to name the source of this epigram earns a post linking to their blog or website (provided they are legal, and such). And if you translate it poetically, I’ll put a little extra effort into the post.”
Well I was the first to name the source.
I admitted the translation was beyond me..
Oh well.. Just for the record.
I won..
So if and its a big IF!
The poster actually comes back with a post.. be warned..
It may be vulgar.. or whatever..
Yall are adults get over it..
My Grandfather was a Latin scholar, he actually taught the dead language. He had a great love for Latin.
Yep he was a rancher, but a educated one.Nothing says ya can’t be smart while your chasing cows.
They don’t particularly care what ya yell as your working them..
Who know’s why calf’s are called doggies..?
Hi, Pet. My name is Bhakti. I linked from you through NonComposMentis…I was your ‘competition’o
on the Latin challenge. I guess we both won (I’m Bride of Zombie, too..just a pseudonum).
Anyway, I love the picture on your site! You would probably love the pictures of my beloved Kitty Von Kitty that are all over my blog.
By the way, to save yourself trouble with the blog, why don’t you just use a host like Blogger?
Unless, of course, the challenge is fun for you, which I totally understand.
See you ’round,
Bhakti
ooops…just found your Blogger blog. This one is much more pleasing to the eye!
Let the mayhem caused by my sicko pervert porno-search-string traffic begin! Ok, so they’ll likely not post any more on this blog than they do on mine, but they’re sure to click on some ads/links.
Fear the quiet types (but don’t feel bad about making money off of them)!
