12 and 13 March

Whoops!  I forgot to put up the homework from last night:

~Dux, duxis (m)--General or leader
~Uxor, uxoris (f)--Wife
~Do, dare, dedi--To give

Also, my wife pointed out the following quote from Cicero to me: “Times are bad. Children no longer obey their parents, and everyone is writing a book.”   I've not yet had the chance to chase it down and find out where he said it.

Why I prefer hard-copy

A Latin 3 student has been trying to email the same set of documents to me for THREE WEEKS now.  He finally got it sent to me, at the right email address, the right file type, et al...  And do you know what?  I quote:"Attachment Removed - An attachment was removed from this e-mail message because the attachment was determined to pose a possible security risk."

That is why I prefer hard-copy.
