Word of the Day 04/26/15 Pari Passu

Pari Passu (Latin)
pari passu [pah-ree pahs-soo; English pair-ahy pas-oo, pair-ee]

Latin
1. with equal pace or progress; side by side.
2. without partiality; equably; fairly.

Origin: Latin, literally "with equal step," from ablative of par "equal" (see par ) + passus "pace" (see pace (n.)).

Now YOU come up with a sentence (or fic? or graphic?) that best illustrates the word.
