1. Grab the book nearest to you, turn to page 18, find line 4. Write down what it says:

"to be fed to the Minotaur, a monster with a bull's head that Minos kept hid-"

This is under the entry for "Aegeus" in Tripp's Meridian Handbook of Classical Mythology.

2. Stretch your left arm out as far as you can. What do you touch first?

On the assumption that I don't stretch it straight out to my left, in which case it's left grasping the empty air... either the CD I made of Sam Hinton's "Whoever Shall Have Some Peanuts" or my CD player remote.

3. What is the last thing you watched on TV?

Firefly episode I, which I was showing to wolfemancs, but that was actually a DVD. Before that, actually on TV, an episode of ST:Voyager, where Seven of Nine gets sent to remove a weapon that's causing a temporal paradox... many times over.

1. "-rent inter ipsos atque Ariovistum, aut rem frumentarium, ut satis com-"

From (shocking, I know) Caesar, BG (Hering ed.)

2. My notes on silences in the BG.
3. Baltimore/Red Sox opening day game on ESPN

BTW, I was going to comment on your liner notes/Latin poetry post, but that seems to be sorted now, yes? FWIW, I think the person who "translated" the poem was on crack. Long live the Jussive Subjunctive! ;)

I think that was about the gist of the sorting. :)

Long live the Jussive Subjunctive! ;)

I thought of you when I wrote that. ;)
