A couple of thousand years ago an ancestor of Anne (also named Ann) had the same problem with her scales, she just couldn't 'La' quite right. Ignatius was a well known vocal coach who gave her some training, but it seems to no availe.One day she was caught making an awful noise as she practiced her scales before performing for the Emperor. "Call Ig, you La terrible." said a disgruntled senator.

At Roman games, cannibalism was sometimes witnessed. After consuming a young christian virgin the diner said he was glad he ate her.
Ut quicquam paradisi advolare naribus tuis. May the Bluebird of Paradise fly up your nose.
A favourite weapon of some gladiators was the talons of birds of prey.Christians who were about to die by this terrible means were made to stand in the arenaand announce to the Emperor, "By claw die us this day".
A Centurion was bringing a young christian virgin slave for duties in the royal household. As she broke free of his grip and made a run for freedom, the Centurion called to the Emperor Augustus "Seize her!"
I was looking at some motor scooters when a salesman said, "Hello Sir, my name is Ian, is there anything I can help you with?"I said, "Yes, actually there is, I have looked at the Lambrettas and the Peugeots, but where are the Vespas Ian?"I must confess that hadr Ian not helped me I would never have found them. But then that is what salesmen are for, to server us.He offered me a drink and asked if I wanted anything to eat. I said, "I wouldn't mind a cup of tea and a gord, Ian."A pestering wasp was flying around my gourd, so Ian set about it with no concern for getting himself stung. At last the wasp fell to the ground. I exclaimed "By Jove Ian, you handled the situation with great Valer Ian."He had dropped the magazine he had used to deal the fatal blow to the wasp, so I picked it up, handed it to him and asked, "Is this your Maxim Ian?"Ian then said he would take me to the Vespas, saying, "There're not far, in fact they are quite nero."One must always ceaser the opportunity to link one's puns.
The senator said to his wife, "Its no good, we'll not get the money for this project, the Emperor's tit as as ducks ass."
Here endeth the puns for now, but I shall be roman around looking for more.
