*$#*$(!#! or when bad teeth happen to ‘good’ people
Root canal. Starting next Monday when the nerve in my tooth has calmed down enough to work on it.

‘Thkool’ temporarily cancelled until the teacher’s upper lip unfreezes enough to talk.

So I curled up on the couch to pout and watch the news.
Fox News Channel had an encouraging short item about the resurgence of Latin in American education. Some children appeared to be dancing the Mexican Hat Dance while chanting, “sum,.es, est, sumus, estis, sunt.” Excuse me, but we invented that. Oh, well, it only works with your shorter verbs. For example, “ambulo, ambulas, ambulat,” becomes more difficult. Especially if you try to dance while conjugating.
