alexpgpWhile ordinarily not an observer of saints' namesdays, I have the pleasure of informing you, dear reader, that translators the world over - or at least a healthy portion of them - have symbolically installed St. Jerome (who is reputed to have done Wonderful Things, linguistically, and who died peacefully on 30 September 420) as the patron saint of translators.
Know, then, that today - September 30 - is Translator's Day.
With this knowledge and a couple of dollars, one can doubtless buy a Sunday paper in many metropolitan centers in this great nation of ours.
Pardon me while I go get some morning coffee. Afterward, I shall honor the name of Jerome by finishing the rush assignment that's due tomorrow morning.
Cheers...
