I had a (non-google) translation of that a long time ago (all the websites seem to use it) - it always reassures me that there are some literate people with a sense of humour out there in the world of internet creation land. It is more pig-Latin than Latin I think, but I haven't studied Latin since 1967!

When you link your Challenge photo to your blog, Multiply offers 3 choices for your picture layout. (Picture Right, Center, or Left.) Under the three examples, some sample text appears to show you how the photo will be positioned in relation to your blog. This sample text is in Latin. I have been on Multiply for a couple of years now, and I always wanted to know what this text was. So, I translated it using my knowledge of Latin...er...Google Translate.

Here is the text...
"Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua."

...and here is the translation.
"This is simply dummy text of mental focus, but because occasionally circumstances occur in which toil and pain, some great pleasure."

Neither you, nor I will ever get back the time we wasted on this post. I might have a little too much time on my hands today.

Good night, Writers.

Challenge 113 should be a pretty soon. We had to do some routine maintenance on the computer last night. It took a little longer than expected.

I see you're showing Danette as the host for March 21st. I thought I was. I've got a picture ready to send in, if you'll tell me where to send it.
