It is. It's from 'The Extremes of Good and Evil' by Cicero, written  
in 45 BC.

 From http://www.lipsum.com/:

"There are many variations of passages of Lorem Ipsum available, but  
the majority have suffered alteration in some form, by injected  
humour, or randomised words which don't look even slightly  
believable. If you are going to use a passage of Lorem Ipsum, you  
need to be sure there isn't anything embarrassing hidden in the  
middle of text."

Hmmm...
