SilentC's new signature and some comment in a thread headed "water stones" reminded me of some stuff I once found on the net and pinched as a Word document.
For those of you who want a Latin maxim as a signature, but want one for this century:
Die dulci fruere.
(Have a nice day.)
Labra lege.
(Read my lips.)
Mihi ignosce, cum homine de cane debeo conaredi.
(Excuse me, I've got to see a man about a dog.)
Frena pro ferls teneo.
(I brake for animals.)
Noli me vocare, ego te vocabo.
(Don't call me, I'll call you.)
Canis meus id comedit.
(My dog ate it.)
Facut gaudeam.
(Make my day.)
Braccae illae virides cum subucula rosea et tunica Caledonia quam eleganter concinnatur!
(Those green trousers go so well with that pink shirt and the plaid jacket!)
Illiud Latine dici non potest.
(You can't say that in Latin.)
Te precor dulcissime supplex.
(Pretty please with a cherry on top!)
Quantum materiae materietur marmota monax si marmota monax materiam possit materiari?
(How much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?)
Vescere bracis meis.
(Eat my shorts.)
Stultus est licut stultus facit.
(Stupid is as stupid does.)
Nupperinme de Gallia huc volavi! Mehercule, bracchia mea defatiga sunt!
(I just flew in from Gaul, and boy, are my arms tired!)
Ut si!
(As if!)
Es debilem vinculum, vale!
(You're the weakest link, goodbye!)
Hoc tempore non possum colloqui, sum in curru.
(I can't talk now, I'm on a train.)
Hoc induto est fundus permagnusn?
(Does my bum look big in this?)
Numquam solus ambulabatis.
(You'll never walk alone.)
Quanti canicule ille in finestere?
(How much is that doggie in the window?)
Cheers.
Rob.
