    Took French III my junior year in HS, but had heard that Latin was a good thing to know (and my dad had taken four years of it back in his day) so took Latin I my senior year (not required). Don't remember anything of it. I do remember a little bit of French, and wish I'd just gone ahead and taken French IV, where you actually get to read French literature....

    It is. Latin for idiot is too long - homo fatuus or femina fatua.

    Slightly - OK, Well off topic but you made me think of it:
    While cleaning out a box last week I ran across my tiny collection of political campaign buttons. My favorite, from several presidential election back:
