Thread: FORTVNA AVDES IVVAT

  1. #1

    Default FORTVNA AVDES IVVAT

    Or in the vulgate, Fortuna audes juvat: "Fortune favors the bold."

    To translate into Robish, "If you fight through adversity, the game will pay you back."

    You guys like to play that video of the wreckin' train. Someone needs to find one of a gravy train.

    Because the last 3 games have all been thick, juicy, gravy...

    A great Robism would be "Alia/alea Jacta est"---the die is cast!!! Fun it has been 50 years since my Latin and I hope this is correct!!! lol

    --OK quiz time --(Res Ipsa Loquitor) What Clinton backer uttered these words when the Blue dress came to light??

    One book I read used a looser translation. As Caesar jumped onto the pontoon to cross the Rubicon, the author wrote it as, "Let the dice fly high."

    Which should be our attitude from here on out. Because like I said, it's all gravy.

    "Because like I said, it's all gravy." Better not tell the team that! They're tired of hearing that refrain!
