Latin? Raised by Jesuits?


No, I attended the public high school John Irving dissed in "Garp", as
did his sister Nancy.


I learned my Latin at the same HS as Lyndon Larouche g.


We didn't have to learn to speak it.


We also had 2 years in junior high, taught by a faded Georgia belle.
The HS Latin teacher got a kick out of the fact that the students from
my junior high recited our declensions with a southern accent.

My Latin teacher had no sense of humor. :(

You can't have a sense of humor, if you have no sense.

I had a friend who had a Deep South drawl - even in German.

Go not to the Net for answers, for it will tell you Yes and no. And
you are a bloody fool, only an ignorant cretin would even ask the
question, forty two, 47, the second door, and how many blonde lawyers
does it take to change a lightbulb.

I was sitting in a tree overlooking the front course and back loop at
the Hockenheim racetrack, watching practice, when a group walked up
nearby and one of them gave driving strategy instructions to the
others in German, in a thick-as-gumbo NASCAR accent like that. He
sounded so funny that I almost fell out of the tree.
