Thoughts about our current existence

Word

 

We're too busy crushing the stock and commodities markets.

 

Is “raviolus” the singular of “ravioli”?

 

Lol. Technically it's raviolo. And @macaronus should really be macarono. But, we'll give him a pass. After all, his people invented stroopwafels and poffertjes.

And I still want to know why people can't be gruntled.

 

I'll take the pretzels and beer the Germans gave us.

 

Once you’ve been disgruntled there’s no coming back.

 

Well, since it is dominus-domini, medicus-medici and octopus-octopi (as a few examples) I reasoned backwards (the way I am) : macaroni-macaronus. I have been following Latin classes during one year in high school.

Since then Latin is following me! Pecunia non olet! (money does *not* stink!)

I am a bit discombobulated by this post.

Robert.

 

I heard an English football tv announcer refer to football venues in the plural as "stadia" this weekend. I was impressed.

 

You must be feeling gormful.

 

When things go right people won't be sure you have done anything at all.

 

You are correct for Latin. But, macaroni is Italian So, -o for masculine singular not -us.

 

That may be true. Perhaps it is. But I just don't seem to care!

 

So long as you are happy.

 

I am.
Are you?

 

Most of the time. Too many pointless meetings today.

 

But they can and have been from this report twenty years ago, today.
Not just gruntled, by kempt and couth!

 

I know that feeling. When I call for meetings they’re as short as possible, follow an agenda written or otherwise, and stay on topic. Everyone’s time is valuable.

 

This should be law.

 

Things are only as apparent as they seem.
