Happy Thanksgiving Americans! Have lotsa shiny food haha ;)

If you listen to Gloria in Excelsis Deo enough times you understand more of what they say (unlike Sanctuary). My three most favorite parts are the beginning where it's all triumphant and epic and everyone's singing "gloria in excelsis Deo!"..the part where the men's choir sings "lauuuuudaaaamus te!" and where it goes really epic again and they're singing "Domine Deus." I have another version from the Dies Irae album and it has lotsa violins and it's sooo pretty

Today's Latin: euax, crustum cucurbitae peponis! (oh boy, pumpkin pie!)

"Dying rose, crystal snow, crying dawn, frozen season, raging wind, lightning's strike, open sea, magic solstice, soul's cosmic feeling that turns into inner calls"--"Energy," Dreamquest

Wow, that Latin phrase is great because the botanical term for the type of fruit a pumpkin is (and the rest of melons) is a pepo. Hence, "Peponis"! That connection just massaged my brain...yay for Latin!

Ooooh! So it's probably pepo, peponis..etc (a noun has different endings). That's awesome lol
