medlib,

Your post here was my first good chuckle of the day, seeing so much of myself in what you wrote.

I'm from "some place else", too; self-diagnosed "touch of this and a touch of that" < g >

Ah, there we differ: I was told to look it up myself! Fortunately, the house came well provided with Webster's Third; but I'll never forget the day ol' Mother discovered Chambers...

So, to keep on topic, is it idiocy or idiosyncrasy to take up Latin at age 40? I've always been a little miffed at the Jesuits for dropping that requirement before my high school days, so I've found a tutor and begin next week.
