Quote of the day.

Points if you can identify the language without looking it up. More points if you can actually read it.

"Hige sceal þe heardra, heorte þe cenre, mod sceal þe mare þe ure maegen lytlað"

Nice. If he complains you said that, tell him it was just a joke...albeit at the expense of other people.

Well...I have no basis for this, except rhythmical similarities (if I am even reading it right). Is it Gaelic?

The phlegm has nothing to do with the quote. I just think mailing you a bucket of phlegm is funny.

Ah...funny...after making my guess, I had to look it up, just to satisfy my curiousity (and lack of patience).

Nice quote though...

I was just prepping your standard MO: "When people complain about something you say, tell them it was just a joke."

I'm sorry...

I don't speak gibberish.

Piss poor German; bad English? Sign me up. Gibberish? Can't help you.

It's Old English.
The translation is "Courage must be the greater, heart the bolder, Spirit the greater, the more our strength is diminished."

Alrighty... so I should expect a jar full of phlegm and cheerios with urine.

Let the practical jokes begin.
