Let the Buyer Seize the Day

7 November, 2015
Posted in: Princess

Business teacher:  It is well known that buyers must be careful.  There’s even a phrase “let the buyer beware” or “carpe diem”.

My first born:  Sir, I think you mean “caveat emptor”. “Carpe diem” is “seize the day”.

She is rotating from Business to Woodwork on Monday.  Probably just as well.

    I used to do the same. She is doomed. Miss Murphy never liked me again after 10 year old me explained to her that Samuel Johnson was a famous lexicographer.
