The only thing I know about it is that it is the primary language spoken in Latin America. But you probably already knew that.

First, does the adjective come first, or the noun?
Second, did I match declination properly with "supellex mollis"?

Latin is one of those languages where the sentences are all jumbled, if my memory serves. As long as you've got the right ending on your adjective then it will be understood. So depending on whether you are using a feminine or masculine noun, you'd use a feminine or masculine ending on the adjective in order to establish which word in the sentence your adjective is describing. Does that make sense?

Also, it's been years sense I've studied latin so I may be a bit rusty and you may want to double check that.

Upon putting "supellex mollis" into a latin translator online, it came back with "furniture soft," so I'd say yes you've got it right. Well, if that's what you're trying to say anyway.

Close enough, and thanks.  Supellex (or suppellex sometimes) seems to generally mean housewares.  As far as Latin words for "generic things you buy in a shop", it's either that or commercium, and I like supellex better.

You've no idea how much this is really killing me. We don't get reception around here at all and  I don't have a lot of 'around the house' projects to do given that the house is only 5 years old.  Those that I *DO* have require lots and lots of money (hay landscaping & trees...)  so they're not viable either.    So now my evenings will be spent doing not much of anything except waiting until I go to sleep.  Ohhhhh, I see.  That or a lot of trips to the library to read.

Bummer.  You have both kidneys, right?

I feel for you.  I spent a rather long period of time with no cable (ugg, like 8+ years or something).  Luckily we had decent reception and Star Trek: TNG was just airing.  Parents didn't get cable again until I went to off to college.

You could also just buy a satellite dish from someone and get a hacked box, viola free cable!

Depending on your cell phone plan, you could always just tether your computer to that.  I've got unlimited data on my blackjack through AT&T, and if the internet goes down I just plug it into a usb port, hit the "internet sharing" program that microsoft did a really poor job of hiding, and I've got dsl-ish internet.

Edit:  Or just bribe the cable guy when he shows up to disconnect it, I've found $20-50 will usually do the trick, last time I did it it lasted for a year before they finally shut it off.

What's a cell phone?  DRILLING AND MANLINESS  I don't have one and won't until someone else pays for it because I need it for work.  I'm at home, at the office or at family functions where everyone I want to talk to is at as well.

I'm too honest to hack other folks wifi.  I'll live without and just be pissed.
