Oh, for a 48-hour day.

Sir Philip Sidney, on the merits of the English language:

Another will say it wanteth grammar. Nay truly, it hath that praise, that it wants not grammar: for grammar it might have, but it needs it not, being so easy in itself, and so void of those cumbersome differences of cases, genders, moods, and tenses, which I think was a piece of the Tower

I think, at that time, the language was much more fluid (i.e. changeable) than it is now.

[lauzeta]

I kind of... well, yeah, but only in some respects.

I think Sir Philip would have helped us kick the midterm's ass, if he'd been around today. I had that feeling studying (ie, "going for a walk and thinking about Sir Philip Sidney") last night. I also have a feeling those particular teachers are not out to get us. So yay?
How has your afternoon been?

My afternoon sucked, but my evening was excellent. I'ma call you later about stuff. How was East is East?
