These are a few footnotes for other pages on this site.
This is also where I'll explain any in-jokes that 99.9% of the population won't understand,
but which appear on a regular basis throughout the site, especially in the journals.
Don't just read this page, because the items aren't likely to make any sense out of context.
Or indeed, in context.
'It's a sin' Latin translation
Confiteor Deo omnipotenti
Vobis fratres
Quia peccavi nimis cogitatione
Verbo, opere et omissione
Mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa
...means the following...
I confess to almighty God
And to you my brothers
That I have sinned exceedingly
In thought, word, act and omission
Through my fault, through my fault, through my most grievous fault

'Ana Ng' Lyrics
The actual lyrics on the song are:
And it sticks like a broken record
Everything sticks like a broken record
Everything sticks until it goes away
The middle line is not actually part of the written lyrics.
The song is sung such that it sounds as though the record is broken at that point.

Aserejé - What!?
Aserejé is a song about a song. It tells the story of Diego, an afro-gypsy Rastafarian,
who spends his evenings dancing to rap and hip-hop. Diego likes a popular 1979 tune,
Rapper’s Delight by Sugar Hill Gang. But he doesn’t know the English words, so he pronounces them as gibberish.
Aserejé is a Spanish phonetic translation for “I said a hip,” taken from the Sugar Hill Gang song.
The original lyrics from Rapper’s Delight are:
“I said a hip hop the hippie the hippie
to the hip hip hop, a you don’t stop
the rock it to the bang bang boogie
say up jumped the boogie
to the rhythm of the boogie, the beat.”
They became, in the Ketchup language,
“Aserejé, ja de jé de jebe tu de jebere seibiunouva majavi an de bugui an de buididipí”

Recorded mileage of my Fiesta J311YNO
I'm going to be really sad here and record all the mileages as shown in the service book.
Not like me at all.
