   This is more subtle (and more topical) than Thaves usual pun factory gags. I like it..
   JackButler’s billingual comment is great , but I need a translation for sutirtho’s comment — it’s Greek to me.

   I took Latin in 7th grade in 1977. I failed miserably – it was all Greek to me! (However, I can decipher much of the Romance languages such as Spanish, Portuguese, Italian & French)

   I can read Greek letters—enough Math to remember them, and one year of Grad School Koine—but all I can make out is “the whole Hellene thing . . .”

    In Shakespeare’s “Julius Caesar”, Marc Anthony is asked what language some people are speaking, he replies, “It’s Greek to me.” It was Greek. That is the first known use of the phrase. Somehow, this has come to mean anything a person does not understand.
