  1. Salve, GO. Those are anything but secrets. If a secret is a secret, how do you know that the secret exists???
  2. For those interested in the Vatican's secrets: http://www.vatican.va/
  3. How would you like to find a Tasmanian Devil sleeping with you?
  4. When I was a kid, people made their own costumes out of old sheets and what not. Chalked up their faces with colored chalk. Filled a long stocking with chalk, crushed it, and went around whacking fellow delinquents and buildings with it. Kids carried a piece of chalk to decorate, i.e., despoil, other kid's outfits. The most we ever bought was a mask. Pumpkins were the real thing. We had a real nasty 'trick' ready, (such as rotten eggs), when we went 'Trick' or 'Treating'. No one would dare to give a kid a sabotaged fruit. Now I see parents escorting their urchins during certain set times. Late teen thugs still at it. On the odd occasion when they do ask T or T, and you respond Trick, you usually get an inane blank stare. No imagination; no fun.
  5. I don't know where I got this, and I don't know how true it is, but there might have been 'boards' on which 'news' was posted regulary in Rome.
  6. It is quite obvious that the 'Yups' are ahead by a long shot, and Chicagopolis hasn't put its two cents worth in yet. The vigilies in the ice cream suits are warming up.
  7. The Roman road system kept the provinces in contact with Rome. I guess that's 'news'.
  8. You are on a roll. Keep it up! When we capture you in the Rhaetian War, it's off to Guantanamo with you!
  9. Imageshack something or other. Completely disregard. Sorry!
  10. Why should My Lady of the North get ticked off? No matter how many I put up, I never get it right. Pompey?
  11. What did the Romans call the 'rabble'?
  12. Sulla? Crassus? Caesar? Marius?
  13. How about these: "They didn't take their lithium."
  14. Another moment of complete sanity! You must be back on the lithium!
  15. You may be a little too cynical and suspicious. I am sure that there are untold numbers of unknown and un-indexed tomes in Roman Catholic, Orthodox, Moslem, and private institutions. In many cases they don't know what they have. I see no reason why they would withhold a document from antiquity or medieval times. I am sure that they do withhold some, but this is their property, and thus, they have a right to do so.
  16. Surely yes! I went back to the thread where she was congratulated on becoming one of the 12 Patricii! In her own words!
  17. They will need to roll both trouser legs up, stand on a box and pin a frog to their lapels. Do they wear black socks and sugar loaf hats?
  18. I've got it! I've got it! I've got it! HECATE!!! I researched it. Take my word. I'm not lying about this!
  19. Justinian. The 'Byzantines' called themselves 'Romanoi' until 1453AD.
  20. Can they become Christians, yea, even Cardinals now?
  21. How do the people of present day Russia (European and Asiatic), Scandinavia. and Greenland affect your thinking?
