Any Latin speakers out there?
Wednesday, 14 April 2004 04:29:52

So this is probably gonna sound a little strange but... Is there anyone out there that knows Latin? If so can you translate something for me? If you answered yes to both these questions could you translate: "If the classes don't kill you, the food will." for me? To answer the obvious question of "Why do you need [i]that[/i] translated": I'm currently doin the college thing and my friends and I were recently discussing what our school motto should be. Considering that we were eating at the cafeteria at the time, the above sentence was suggested and unanimously voted to be the winner. So, just for kicks, I have decided to use my Photoshop skills (what very little I have) to create a new school logo featuring the slogan. Seeing as how many schools have their motto displayed in Latin, I decided it would be best to follow suit. However, I don’t know any Latin, no one I know does, and I can’t find anywhere on the net to do it for me. So there it is. Any help anyone can give me is greatly appreciated.

Is it too early to be thinking about "Serenity" and summer 2005?

It was on the bus ride home that I got to thinking about summer 05, the summer of [i]Serenity[/i]. I kept thinking how cool it would be to go line up kinda early and maybe meet some other Browncoats while I waited. Then I started to think about who I could dress up as. I settled on dressing like Kaylee from [i]Serenity[/i] when she's sitting in front of the ship or trying to find someone to make a cunning Janye hat from [i]The Message[/i] for me. :biggrin: Is it too early for these thoughts? Am I being super geeky or just really normal for a Firefly fan? I mean, I have never ever considered dressing up for a movie before; I came close with Episode II for Star Wars but all I wore was the T-shirt I had bought for Episode I. I guess this shows how much I love Firefly. I'm planning my day around a movie that hasn't even begun filming yet. :biggrin:

Who is Bags?

I have been instructed by 'ski to do something to say who I is, and what brought me here. So here goes. Like it says I am an aviator, an avid sci-fi fan, and a royal pain in the rump to anyone who crosses me. (Actually to anyone who knows me but anyway.) 'Ski introduced me to the Firefly 'verse by showing me his on the boards/off the boards 'fic, and it intrigued me. So when he asked for some assistance I volouteered some ideas and we kinda started to bash out some really kool ideas. It was at this stage the he suggested that I actually watch an episode or two, and having seen them, I decided that this was a shiny little 'verse to amuse ourselves vicariously in for a while. Anyway here I am, dong ma? what's that beeping noise?? Should I be like flying this thing, ooooops.... gotta run!

I need your help!!!
