Who are the Brainiacs!?

[Rawr]

Actually, Rawr, while I agree with you to some extent. It actually has the opposite effect on me. I.e. "If I'm so darned smart, why am I still working 60 hrs/week doing stuff I hate?" type of self-loathing.

Everytime I take one of these, I'm just reminded once again that I must not be working up to my potential. Remember how Lecagy defined "Hell" at B&P?

That's a great perspective Jill. :eusa_clap:

I have no idea how I stumbled upon this ancient thread. But I always find it fun to re-read old threads.

5 years of Latin, Russ. So if Caesar ever comes to town, I'll be in good shape. :smxE:

I didn't know ^that^ Jill! My next tattoo is going to be a Latin translation of "As you believe, so shall it be." -any help with that? I've already got "Aut viam inveniam aut faciam" on my business cards.

Cool! Well, the most literal translation would be "Ut vos puto , sic vadum is exsisto." But it's been 30 years!! Let me check with someone who is a little more of a Latin scholar!! I would hate for you to end up with a somewhat permanent tat that translates: "Think about to do be do." LOL.
