The origin of the word SINCERE...

Sincere - It's origin is from Roman times, in which people of importance would have marble statues of themselves made, but in the process of making them, sometimes they would chip and the artist (if a dishonest one) would fill in the chipped area with wax to hide the chipped area. When the person who's statue was made, sometimes they'd ask the artist if the statue was sin cera ("without wax") -- That's where we get the word Sincere.
Chrissy calls me sincere...:)
