Too mush Mike's?

Lane, your last comment on "Coalface" was as long as your posts. And now this post is like the comments section. What gives?

Ann Ominous writes:
It's like the second chapter of the second book of Finnegans Wake where the text and the footnotes change place. Is this deliberate?.......unonominous.

Lane Savant writes:
No, actually, I just intended to answer some of Butch's questions but I got rolling and let 'er rip.

Emily writes:
Come on Dougie dear, you just want to brag that you've read so much Joyce.

Seneca writes:
Are you ever going to give us the translations?

Lane Savant writes:
I misplaced the book I got the Latin from. Soon.....soon.

Cicero writes:
No need for any translations here.

Scriptus Plautus:
Hic astabo tantisper cum hac forma et factis frustra is from my own Miles Gloriosus;
It means, "Am I to stand, idle and unnoticed, so handsome and so heroic, all for nothing?"

Lane Savant scriptus
Gee, Plaut...Thanks a lot, I wanted to do that.

Plautus ecrit;
Timing you fool, is the most important thing. You were dragging it out too long.

Cicero chimes in again:
I agree with Plautie, "Quid de utilitate loquar stercorandi?" is from my "De Senectute"
It means "What can I say about the usefulness of spreading manure?

El Savant cries in his cerevesium:
Be that way, but I get "Bibamus, moriendum est". It means "life is short, let's have a drink" Hah!. Put it together with the spell-check version about "Bigamous Miranda" and we've got a party goin'on.

Doug types merrily:
"Ave Amicae" means "hello friends" "Vale Lacerte" means "See ya later alligator"

Vale Amicae
