The
Return of HYE
C'mon, "networkers!" We need your "Have you
ever?" hints! Confessions are good for the soul! (OK, mostly they're
good for a laugh, but research shows...uh...that your screw-ups are good for
my blood pressure!)
Here's a few that have happened (or been submitted)
recently. Don't forget - contact the Grand
Poo-Bah of HYE (who happens to be the long-suffering editor of this rag)
for your confessions! For a bit of fun with the Latin on the HYE crest, look
below...

- ...sent a 10 meg attachment to someone via email, and,
for good measure, CC'd yourself - and then wondered why you can't email
anybody? (Thanks, Mr. Forston!)
- ...discovered the hole in your pocket while you're
standing in front of the parking meter?
- ...called your cell phone so you could find it by its
ring, and it goes off in your pocket?
- ...dropped off those MRIs to your doctor's office, and, a
week later, when inquiring as to their contents, being told they hadn't
arrived yet? (True story!)
- ...with difficulty, created a space in your busy schedule
for a Professional Development only to discover you know more than the
instructor? (It's an even ruder awakening when the PD is
actually a college course!)

"What the heck does Quae Nocent, Saepe Docent mean?"
OK, dufus, all you have to do is run your mouse over the
crest above, and it'll tell you! I'll wait here while you go look.....OK, got
it? Did it hurt?
Sine Nomine was the name of a local
semi-professional choral ensemble for 8 years...until the director, Gary
Anderson, got tired of the constant questions about what it meant. (It means,
of course, "Without a name.") While researching HYE's wonderful
motto, I found lots of fun Latin phrases. Here they are, and how they
translate:
| Latin phrase |
English translation |
| Si hoc legere scis, nimis
eruditionis habes |
If you can read this, you are
overeducated |
| Cogito, ergo doleo |
I think, therefore I am depressed |
| Frena pro feris teneo |
I brake for animals |
| Credo Elvem ipsum etian vivere |
I think that Elvis is still alive. |
| Si fractum non sit, noli id
reficere |
If it ain't broke, don't fix it |
| Mellita, domi adsum |
Honey, I'm home |
| Ecce potestas casei |
Behold the power of cheese |
| Quisque comoedus est |
Everybody's a comedian |
