Gaius Octavius

I do know an archaeologist that has a whip, known him all my life in fact. I also want to make it clear that it was a gift Willy Whiplock?

Let us assume a hypothetical military problem with regard to command and control: 1. A British infantry regiment circa 1875AD. (No radios or motor vehicles - to make things even.) 2. A Roman legion circa 50AD. 3. They are both stationed at the same fort (for their times). 4. They are ordered to take an enemy fort 3 days march away. 5. They both have cavalry and artillery. 5. En route they are ambushed. 6. They envelop and defeat the enemy. 7. They then proceed to lay siege to the enemy fort. 8. (No Warrant Officers ) Questions: 1. How did the commanders exercise command and control of their force, both at the ambush and at the siege? 2. What would the differences have been? 3. Would the artillery and cavalry have been considered 'specialized' units or forces.

Unless I am missing something here, it seems that the Romans were using dogs to attack their enemies quite often. Therefore, can someone cite a couple of recorded battles in which they fought?

Looks like a painted pumpkin. Probably shares a brain cell with the liberararin candidate barr.

Currently, isn't there something in the news about this town?

Of course you are correct. By using the term 'Byzantine', writers may have been attempting to distinguish the point at which the eastern emperor's edicts no longer had the force of law in most of the west.

Simple problems have simple solutions. Take the chicken bone out; put a key ring in! Easy!

Anyway, I hope that none are so foolish to fill out their 'citizenship' application. Why would they want to know a telephone number,etc.?

A couple of y'all are aware of the fact that I took a hit in the Imperial Portfolio. I am trying to make up this short fall with a Black Sale of my monograph: "On the Rudiments of Elementary Bad Manners"; a necessity for those lacking in the matter. It is offered at the previously unheard of pre-certified pre-discounted discounted price of 69 bucks. (Plus taxes and S&H.) But wait! Order one and you'll get two! Give one to a needy friend. You'll also get a C-note rebate!

Gaius! Be good!

Once got rear-ended by a jerk in an M convert. Have the most imperceptible dimple on the rear bumper. Entire plastic front end of M a complete mess. When some miscreant cuts off the I.C., it returns the compliment at half a yard. Messes up the CENSORED day. The I.C would have no problem in a 'round-about'. The peasantry would make plenty of room as they stopped to admire an AUTOMOBILE!

Maybe the Savage has a job for you on his tropical island?

Not entirely true. Indy's new nemesis does. http://www.agentprovocateur.com/whips/index.html

Probably where the two missing P's are cavorting about.

GPM, is the author implying that the opposing Brit and Roman dogs fought each other?

"..., and I really miss visiting this site and giving arseholes to that reprobate Bathroom Attendant's Assistant, Gaius Octavius. You'll keep, Octavius!" K

Come on chaps, let's give credit where credit is due. Were it not for Indy, we wouldn't know where the Arc of the Covenant is stored! How would we know the discrete way for a lass to tell her prof that she loves him - without putting her hand on his knee?

Caldrail, I now see that my choice of words was unfortunate. For this I apologize. I had absolutely no intention of denigrating you or anyone else. I just wanted to put up a site that I thought useful, and had no intention of reviving the justly locked earlier site. Were I an outsider looking at our posts, I think that I would have accepted your views rather than mine.

Pay attention, you young unblooded chippies: After 25 years, my Bride finally took the Imperial Chariot on a trip to Costco - alone. She was instructed to get the tire pressure checked. A mob gathered to admire said Chariot. One of the peasants harked out: "Now, that is an automobile!" As I once told y'all, when I cruise down the motor ways with my Stetson and monocle on, I can hear passerbys, in such ugly trash as Mercedes, scream out to the old man: "You skell; why don't you get a good looking automobile like his? Get rid of that beard! We know that you are ugly!"

Well, its a little complicated to explain, but only visiting safe websites is only a small part of computer security. There are lots of different network type connections that your computer is capable of using and web surfing uses only one of them. It depends on whether your computer is connected directly to your internet connection or is run through a firewall-router, whether you have firewall software, whether you have programs on your computer that have known vulnerabilities to network attacks, etc. Will let my Bride look at this. Urdu to me. Can 'Firefox' take care of this? [Just heard that the WHOLE country of Estonia was taken down (or whatever it is called in computerese)]. Should I open an e-mail joke, from one of my whacko pals, with an attachment? Yours truly, Dumb-Dumb
