The Corpus Scriptorum Latinorum
is a large archive of texts in Latin, most of which, thankfully, have translations into English and other languages. It's brought to you by the people at Forum Romanum.
And if that puts you in the mood for all things Roman, here are some pretty pictures.

Kickass link! Thanks! That should really help me pratice my Latin!
-
I learned all the Latin I needed to know from the priest who was walking to the electric chair with Johnny Dangerously.
-
Very cool link. I wonder how many I've read already? *former Latin student*
-
I always regret not learning Latin or having a Classical education. Now I can fake it thanks to bob's great link!
-
The photos are top value too. Shame they've used a Flash player so it's harder to pinch them.

Here's some Winnie ille pu. It starts thusly: Ecce Eduardus Ursus scalis nunc tump-tump-tump occipite gradus pulsante post Christophorum Robinum descendens.

If truth be told, Abiezer, I too lament my limited Latin. Italian helps one's chances of successful fakery a little, but not as much as one would think. Try this site for a few phrases to throw into the mix. Winnie ille pu. Priceless.

Hey, awesome! I'm a high school Latin victim. I only took it because creative writing class was cancelled, but I think the Latin class was more valuable anyway. You lose the grammar after a while - it's so structured. I've been meaning to pick up flash cards for vocabulary. This will help. I think the language-learning centers of my brain have been gone for a really long time. =/

Wow! Nuthin' sex's up a tired, old commuinity web log like a fresh Latin archive resource! We's back in the groove, baby!

Are you mocking our dead languages? ;D (Sanskrit = even hotter.)
