seersucker

A suit worn in the American south that is typically defined by small blue to navy vertical stripes on a white background. It is worn normally during the summer months as an alternative to the more popular business suit based on its light and cool fabric that is more tolerable to the hot and humid conditions.
Something you would see an lawyer in New Orleans wearing in the mid 1900's. Also sported by Gregory Peck's character Atticus Finch in the movie adaptation of "To Kill a Mockingbird"

Tom - "It is so hot outside Jim, what should i wear to this wedding?"
Jim - "I'm putting on that seersucker I've had in the closet for the past 150 years."

Semper Fi

Semper Fi, adopted in 1883, is the U.S. Marine Corps motto. It's short for Semper Fidelis, which is latin for "Always Faithful." To many Marines, Semper Fi, is not just a phrase but a way of life-the commitment that they all share to their community, to their Corps, and to eachother. It's why there are no ex-Marines, only former Marines.
Cesar: I love the Marine Corps so much, that I got a tattoo of their emblem.
Josh: Semper Fi!

Sepera

1) A mischevious genious or a militant womanizer.

2) A Serpent like man, one who is wise and crafty.
A Sepera is someone who is a Rebel against the systems of the world, although they seem to Master it and use the system to their personal individual advantage. Sepera does not know how to make the world better, but he knows how to get the best out of it.

Separation of Church and State

Separation of Church and State is an ideology protecting religious freedom by ensuring government does not interfere to favor or disfavor private religious establishments so long as they practice without violating another's individual rights. The clause also protects from churches and other religious organizations interfering with government practices in an attempt to remove religious freedom so as to favor their beliefs. This clause proposes a metaphorical wall between government and religious establishments, unlike the one-way street idea proposed by fanatical religious theocrats.
Wiccan: You can't limit my freedom to worship in peace. We have separation of Church and State.

Radical Fundamentalist: No you don't! That clause represents a one-way street. Government is not to interfere with churches but churches can control the government and limit the rights of non-believers!

Wiccan: I hear Iran is lovely this time of year.
