   Too right. It’s just a job, and you’re doing a good one. Put your feet up.

   Damn. I wish I’d thought of that motto first.

   Yes.
   I thought it was just me.

   Translate it into Latin, and it will be awesome. now, what sort of coat of arms will you have, and maybe a cool signet ring that leaves a nasty mark?

   “We’re not too old for this shit…”

   I don’t want to think about the “nasty mark” that signet ring would leave.

   Damn. Now I’m thinking about it … something in brown …

   I tried a free online “Latin translator” and got this:

   Nos es non quoque vetus huic shit , tamen nos es quoque vetus neco ourselves huic shit.

   I’ve looked around and can’t find a latin word for “shit” or even “feces.” Barring that, one might substitute the Italian “merde” and get:

   Nos es non quoque vetus huic merde , tamen nos es quoque vetus neco ourselves huic merde.

   That leaves “ourselves” untranslated, but if one substitutes “us” in the English text we get:

   Nos es non quoque vetus huic merde , tamen nos es quoque vetus neco nos huic merde.

   Which is probably ungrammatical as hell, but I doubt anyone would really give a merde.

   Can we get T-shirts with that on it?

   I mean, seriously!

   The Tottingham family motto in Wallace & Gromit’s Curse of the Were-Rabbit is “Liber Stercus Pro Totus” which translates to “Manure Liberates Us All” (it was supposed to translate to “Free Manure for Everybody”). I assume “Stercus” is “Manure”. Substitute and further grammatically mangle Heidi’s motto as you will.

   But hopefully some Latin nerd can step up to help.
