    I like Bidenisms for the same reason I like Bushisms and Quaylisms... they make me laugh.

            Vergil was NOT @#%ing Greek!!!
            Greecian, not Greek. When will they learn?

              Go to Harvard, Yale and Stanford. I wonder how many of our best and brightest know where Pakistan is. Maybe Sarah didn't have time to play Risk.

              Is she smart enough to learn where Pakistan is, if so, that would be good enough for me.

                It's not spelled "virgil." Vergil. Vergilius, if you really want to be picky.

                        This is true. I have been hooked for months. My teeth are falling out. I've lost 60 pounds because I have no desire to eat.

                          Apparently it's the closest modern language to classical Latin. Closer than Italian. I guess that's why it's called 'Rome"-anian (someone had to point this out to me once). Go figure.

                              Those crazy brits call it "Ru"manian. Cause you rue the day you ever decided to learn it.

                                Please, nobody have KL list all of her languages. (don't respond to the poll, KL!) I prefer to learn these things bit by bit over time. It adds to the aura and mystique.
