Greek Homework

My Greek professor, Dr. Philip Brown has said it so perfectly. In response to the people who tell him, "It's all Greek to me!" he responds, "When people say that to me I say, 'It's Greek to me too, I just know what it means.'"

And translating this sentence makes my head spin:

οι αδελφοι του ανθωπου λεγουσι τοις υιοις του αγγελου.

αποθνησκω!

Ahh... I remember that sentence. Trust me, it doesn't make much more sense in English either!

Okay Sam. You've officially both impressed me and made me jealous. ;)
But I am writing to you from Malaysia, where I played with a python a python and beastly large lizard yesterday and ate some sort of crunchy, suspicious brown sticky stuff in my noodles for dinner today. Are YOU impressed or jealous? *crickets*
...Okay. I was afraid of that.

Bless you bro,
Dani
