What Jeeves might say.

You're right: Aristotle didn't write in Latin. I guess I just thought the joke wouldn't be as funny if I'd written that he called the coat  "παλτό σφιχτό διασκέδαση μαλλί." Maybe you're right, though. That is pretty hilarious.

 When Aristotle wrote his Categories and De Interpretatione the coat went by the Latin nameMediolanum Tunica Stricta Lana Fun Ludo, of which the English given above is a more or less precise translation.

I understand a joke is being made, but I thought I would point out that Aristotle didn't write in Latin or title his workDe Interpretatione.

There is a catalogue to be written on the word "celebrate" in modern usage. I have just completed a quick back-and-forth between Palo Alto and Washington, where airport signs, bus placards, and all manner of metropolitan notices advised me either to "celebrate" or to "treat myself" in the following fashions:

  1. Cupcakes
  2. Me time
  3. Business class (viz. vinyl seats and domestic champagne)
  4. A blow dry
  5. Guacamole

I wonder who are the people, walking down the street, who are thinking to themselves: How should I celebrate myself tonight? Maybe a bit of brain-smoothing Millionaire Matchmaker followed by a cupcake. (Here's a neat trick for consuming those cupcakes while capping the carbs! I learned this on The Today Show. Cut your cupcake in half, longitudinally. That way you'll get a nice mix of frosting and cake. Refrigerate the other half and insert it into your gullet once it has ossified and you need to treat yourself again.)
