Reading Latin poetry invariably gets "Stars and Stripes Forever" stuck in my head.

Until next time, I remain.

Will thinks this post is rather linguistic.

Why? Whatcha readin'?

Senior year I swore off Latin, now going back for my Masters in Humanities/Medieval Studies I am actually EXCITED to read Latin again. (Medieval Latin is much easier, though.) I think I am going to get my head checked. miserabile dictu.

Well, anonymous poster, right now it's just some Ovid; I'm only in third semester. But scanning that hexameter just makes me think Sousa, no thanks to Garnjobst.

Sorry, Will, definition of Cool, I forgot to fill out the name part.
