[nagdu] beginning to use a cane

[Mark J. Cadigan]

Janice,



It's not a real Latin fraise. It's just sort of supposed to look like it is. 
It could be translated as "don't let the basterds grind you down." Sort of 
like another one of my other favorite fake latten fraises:



"Merda taurorum animas conturbit" (Bulls**t baffles brains)

"Cuius testiculos habeas, habeas cardia et cerebellum." (When you have them 
by the balls, the heart and mind will follow)



And the best one, wich you can translate, "Semper ubi sub ubi."
