Ah yesh, vienna - I remember those days all too well... still have nightmares about Sister Francis (or was it Frances??). She hated boys, and it seemed especially me... but back then, as an "alterboy", we had to say all sorts of stuff in Latin... not too much stayed in my grey matter either, other than Sancto, some of the stuff on the back of coinage (e pluribus unum), Semper Fi(delis), and the ole reliable ad infinitum ad nauseum - which is a "fake" Latin phrase... - I can see though, that we can use Aktungbby, as well as Jim Belushi, as reliable sources of lern-Ed Latin phraseology, 'cause he's got it in a video right there!...

Very nice posting Platapus. One thing I find is that a lot of folks discussing the Constitution or the Bill of Rights, or any other other early US documents don't read the history of them nor do they try to understand them, and just repeat "modern" history's ad infinitum ad nauseum repeatings of generalizations and mis-information. The devil is in the details.

Are you going to do a post on "Enumerated Powers"? Lot's of folks have difficulty with the "The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people."
