Yeah, I see it now. Like I said, my Latin is largely ecclesiastical texts and Carmina. Carmina had me covered for "puellae," and the church covered "gaudent", "gloria", and "dolor".
The internet is weird.
Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
John Laroquette in Night Court = Hot.

I can't even.
Dolor=pain, fugax = fleeting. Gloria=glory perennis = lasts. Puellae=girls cicatrwhatev=scars gaudent = gotta be dig, at this point.
Yes. Glory is forever/endures.
Gaudent is "regard with pleasure/approval", good fit for digs, I'd say.
The translation isn't my work, but that of a friend who is a working latin teacher (and kickass Jeopardy/Millionaire player). I think it is a keeper. Words to live by (in the case of some of my friends, close enough to literally).

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
John Laroquette now = still kinda hot.
Still definitely hot.

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-
Even though Fielding= dick. I really liked the Larroquette show. Of course, dark, bitter and damaged is a laugh riot to me, so, duh.
