Saw the Space Force logo on the USAF Academy football team jerseys. Semper Supra. Cheesy. Neat story though about the enlisted Airman who created it and the music. But why would the Air Force be wearing the Space Force’s logo? They are different branches of the service now. It’s not unlike them wearing Anchors Away. When I was in it was Semper Gumby. Always Flexible. Though many felt it should be more Semper Eeyore. Always Grumpy.
I have a registered production company, Sauve Productions, that my sons and I use to produce events periodically. The motto is Rent Curtain, a reference to when the curtain around the Ark was torn, rent, when Christ died, symbolically connecting God and Man. I’d hoped to produce faith based plays. (We have done so, along with weddings, commercial videos, and banquets.)
I saw a neat logo, in English, this weekend and decided adopt it, but being all snooty I want it in Latin. There are though many choices in Latin for what I want to convey. So let me try this out. What do you think it means?
PETO DIEM
And yes I know Peto is the PetCo or Chewy in Australia.

Maybe a better Latin word usage would be:
INVADO DIEM

So I got attack/usurp.

Someone should tell those astronuts that space isn't above Earth, it surrounds Earth. There is no up or down in space. Your perspective varies depending on if you're on the "floor", "ceiling", "wall", or none of those.
As soon as I saw "Slogans" I thought Semper Gumby, Always Flexible. So we were on the same page at the beginning. Not being a Latin speaker, I was with you right up to diem. :) Invado sounds like invade, but I looked online and one of the meanings is attack, so, attack the day. Go on Alf. Do it! Someone should, and it won't be me. I've been online for 6 days straight, I think, and the only thing I'll be attacking is my mattress, eventually. Rght now I'm in too much pain to sleep, but I have a variety of liquors I could use to dull the pain, and may try that after I finish eating.
