Well, this was a very interesting find! Apparently on wiktionary they have lists of ancient greek words by declension! Neat! While browsing through, i find a very amusing definition.. it goes from being perfectly expected to very funny...
ἰδιώτης (genitive ἰδιώτου) m, first declension; (idiōtēs)
1. a private person, one not engaged in public affairs
2. (adjectival use) private, homely
3. commoner, plebeian
4. uneducated person, layman, amateur
5. one who is not in the know, an outsider
6. an ignorant person, idiot
7. one who is awkward, clumsy
8. (plural) one's countrymen
Hm! The last one almost seems like the punchline at the end of some good buildup xD
EDIT: Go here for more wild, greek fun! http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Category:Ancient_Greek_language

In other news, biking has become easier and is no longer accompanied by agony! Hoorah! Perhaps more about this and about 4th of July (which i accidentally wrote as New Years the first time -_-) because.. well, anyway, showertime! *KERPOW!*
