Todays the Day! - Mel Fisher

A novus dies has adveho.... Occupo dies ( A new day has come.... Seize it!) - quote in my grandmothers last letter to me.

In the case of SD it should be

A novus dies has adveho. Dive is! (A new day has come... Dive it)
A novus dies has adveho. Lavo! (A new day has come... Get Wet)

Just a couple ideas that popped in my head while working on a few things

A Novus Dies Has Adveho.... Occupo Dies

Hey there, Scubatooth! Your post looks like fun!

Nunc est bibendum! ~ Latin for "now is the time to drink"
Operor non vado qua semita may plumbum , vado instead qua illic est haud semita quod licentia a sequor. ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson "Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail."
Amicule, deliciae, num is sum qui mentiar tibi? ~ Latin for "Baby, sweetheart, would I lie to you?"


"Is ero porro. Is ero ferreus. Illic ero haud egressio!" ~ Latin for "It will be long. It will be hard. There will be no withdrawal."

Quare dive unus? (Why dive alone?)
Quisnam knew is eram urinor? (Who knew she was a diver?)

Siccus Multiplex Coral Spawing trinus. (Dry Tortugas Coral Spawing trip)

"Fun! Huh?" didn't translate into English this time around. So, I'm not sure I wanna speak Latin anymore.

Cool on the quotes....its time to print another round of t-shirts so that means its time to do another quote!
Second t-shirt:

"The cure for anything is saltwater--sweat, tears, or the sea."
- Isak Dinesen

WHO KNEW SHE WAS A DIVER?!?!

www.SingleDivers.com


Would you believe; "Rememdium pro quisquam est saltwater -- sudo, lacrima, vel profundum" is the Latin way? I don't. Is the term, saltwater, really Latin? Naw. Can't be.

"A journey of a thousand leagues begins with a single step." ~ Chinese Proverb, Lao Tzu

I don't know Lao Tzu. Therefore, double check the citation.

Lao Tzu lived around 500BC (No one knows exactly when he was born or died, but they think he lived during the time of Confucius. He was the founder of Daoism and wrote the Daodejing. Such is the mystery of the man that he was rumored to have been born when he was 64 and lived until he was 165 years old.

The quote has been attributed to both Confucius and Lao Tzu.

I prefer the paraphrased version of:

"The longest journey begins with a single step, not with a turn of the ignition key."
Edward Abbey
Remember, email is an inefficient communications forum. You may not read things the way it was intended. Give people the benefit of the doubt before firing back... Especially if it is ME...! ;)
