Latin?

[BrokenolMarine]

Got a Henry Ad in my email today. Standard layout, all the Henry logos and the like, except the narative in each "Ad" section was in Latin. Ah, no... don't read/speak Latin, I just recognize it from all the reading I do. I thought I had accidentally changed some setting somewhere.

I sent Henry an email and told them about the ad. They sent me a reply, Thanking Me for letting them know. Seems like it was an Oops, the ad had went out accidentally. Latin is a placeholder for text used in layout. It wasn't ready to go out yet. They resent it with the REAL text in place.

I thought I had developed dyslexia.

I also got the Latin version of the ad.

There was a second email explaining it.

They told me they were going to resend it, and sent me the completed ad. I saved a pic of the Latin version. I'll post it here when I get time to go to the desktop and download it.

Glad to see we aren't the only site that has gremlins in it, lol.

The humor in Henry’s correction is first class!

One of the few things I remember from my HS latin class was "Semper ubi, sub ubi."

Translates as :

"Always where
Under where"

We thought it was hilarious.

Two years of Latin in HS made me a much better English student.
