  1. Listen, you Kiwi Savage, you have just insulted two Romans! Alas, I won't get you - here.
  2. Only if miles and klicks aren't confused - again!
  3. N.N., might this have anything to do with the limitaneii coming from other parts of the Empire?
  4. That side view of the P-38 doesn't give a youngster a full idea of the glory of the plane. Perhaps it should be a 'tilted' view. Side on, it looks like any ole fighter. Just an idea, and hopefully none take it as an insult. Edit: Huns and nips were not only fascinated, but also incinerated.
  5. Were I you, I wouldn't be overly concerned. Look, soon you will have a quake, and kali4kneeya will slip into the drink. Fire done for. Now, lest you think that I am picking on the state, Lon Guylan is slowly slipping into Davy Jones' Locker. The sooner the better. Solve all sorts of problems.
  6. Hopefully, you will also put this up the next time Roman "Democratic' institutions are mentioned.
  7. This might help a little: "Hadrian's Wall"; David J. Breeze and Brian Dobson; Penguin Books.
  8. Perfect! But I won't. Oh!, what the heck. Everybody now, in Church Latin: 'Little Indian, Sioux or Crow, Little Turk or Japanee. O! don't you wish that you were A Napolitano, Just like me?' 'A Child's Garden of Verses' (Edited).
  9. WAR! This means war! Unrestricted! No farthing given! Out skien dhu's, and to work with all!
  10. Depending on the situation, a slower plane can knock out a faster plane - and did. The Russians didn't come in until Stalin got tired of supplying the gooks and Chinese with coffins.
  11. Almost? The USAF controlled the skies over N.K. Pyongyang got the Tokyo treatment. It was exceptionally difficult to tell a crisp gook from a crisp Russian - they went down, in glory, over enemy territory. And usually high-tailed it to China when the Yanks showed up. The enemy never went south of the lines - if they knew what was in their best interests. The 'kill' count was heavily in favor of the USAF. The only point I tried to make, is that the planes were similar in design.
  12. The MIG-15 and the Sabrejet were almost carbon copies.
  13. "Medicating"? Did you mean 'meditating' - on all sorts of capricious twaddle? Or, are you simply unknowingly 'feeding' me?
  14. How about a swap: a copy of my own work " - I Made $100 in Real Estate" for a copy of your "Monograph "? [Could I still buy a stamp with 100 bucks?] If you act quickly I'll include two of my latest: " - Tax Shelters for the Poor " [dubya gave me a copy!] and " - How to Convert your Family Room into a Garage " [Need a whole basement for my Pleasure Barge!] What say ye? Faustus But, I am an easy mark. Throw in one billion air miles so that I can get from La Guardia to Republic to commit some nefarious crime, and you have a deal! While you are at it, throw in some pre-certified rebates - so that I can get the dynamite on the prop-job.
  15. Fiji will never be the same - fewer heads.
  16. M., you'll never find it. He sabotaged the Swindon 'round-about' - just to get at Americans driving Pleasure Barges!
  17. I am really going out on a limb here: They also dug a tunnel to get sea water in to flood the 'lake'. They built two moles to allow warships to enter the lake to shelter during storms. A series of special arches were built on the moles so that these ships could be dragged into the lake. Wooden bridges were constructed between the moles. Still doesn't answer your specific questions. Personally, I think that the legionaries did the work.
  18. 7 cm. is almost twice the length of the picture. Pretty big 'coin'. The 'B' is rather odd. The edges seem too regular for a 'coin' of that metal. Are you sure that it doesn't have something to do with a WWI shell? The next time you pick something up in Flanders Fields, you had better be sure of what it is, or you may wind up in Potter's Field!
  19. I guess that one has to be an A/K in this world - or a politician.
  20. Komrades!: How come Caldrail has only three stars, and I have four? General Blackadder
  21. "The number for us would probably be closer to 20." Would you kindly list them DoLl?
  22. Some linguistic scholar has held that a tounge that has poetry, (songs?), and a literature of its own, constitutes a language. Isn't Mozarabic a Roman Catholic Church (sorry) Rite and not a language? Doesn't the unworthy R.C.C. preserve and maintain at least three forms of Latin that, (to me), don't seem to be included in their listing?
  23. The question then is, how many death penalties were executed?
  24. Absolutely wrong! Price controls always work for the controllers. That's why governments attempt to interfere with price controls by attempting to control prices.
