Rameses the Great

Happy Birthday Viggin! :king:

Don't stress this is an academic forum. Trust me there are a lot of misleading forums they need to target, this is definently not one of them

LOL, you're killing me here Gaius.

I found out the worst way to die, being buried alive.

With that said most conferences had their first conference round today.

What they did was to start the week off they had a new documentary on the Dark Ages. Later they used old documetaries on 'barbarians' throught the week. Of course this all hints at European history.

YAY!!! Good to see you in a good mood.

Alexander ordered it done to Bessus for killing Darius.

Hanging I think. It must be excruciating to hang with only your kneck until of course it breaks. This to me is unethical and is still used as a form of the death penalty in one state in the US.

Is Pantagathus Greek? Enta Yunani?

It indeed was executed well but to second Pantagathus, 'what?'

Must I inflict pain?

All during this week at 8 ET, the History Channel shall air the showing of 'Barbarian Week.' Anyone interested in Celts, Goth, Huns, and any other 'barbarians' can watch and discuss here.

Congragulations! I came shortly after you, but you weren't the cause it was actually when I typed in Celts vs Germans. Gaius, how did you stumble on this site then join?

I would not be surprised. After Ivan the Terrible, Russia was divided and chaos broke. Later the Soviets probably tried to hide it. With Russia more free, I expect the Russians may want do more work on it. 'key' to Tsar's secret library'

I feel it also, of course before I destroyed joined his unit.

You guys don't even know your opponent, Ptolemaic Egyptians. No one wants the desert again we save it for friends like Romans.

Ha can't take the HEAT! Sure, I'll let you have the desert. I will have the Nile, those belly dancers you'll probably be seeing are just mirages. Wow, and I thoght there was going to be a fight oh well.

Just you wait 'till we get deeper into March and this thread starts picking up steam.

I remember when I had to get ready for my grandma's funeral in Decemner, I got really sick. They said it was because of the dramatic changes in the weather. It drove me mad, I kept throwing up, and it started when I was getting my haircut. :mellow: It got ugly. Won't get into detail hope you get better soon.

What the...its all about the Big East. Also I think Duke does not deserve a bid in the NCAA tourney, but they'll get in for obvious reasons. I still like Duke better the UNC.

I've been waiting for an attack! Looks like some Romans are not showing their grit.

Would this be an issue with communication between Athenians and Spartans? Did they maybe even need translators?

Ok, I think I did lose many. March Madness is what is still right with sports. College basketball athletes showcase why their team is the best. It starts out as a field of 65 (odd number because two teams play for the right of the las spot.) There are four regions, 16 teams in one region. Each seed plays each other. So it would be 1 plays 16 2 plays 15, etc. You go section by section. Keep in mind there are 'upsets' in which the lower seed beats the higher seed. It's exciting to watch and you can play and even gambol for money by picking who you think will win. This is the most exciting month to most Americans in terms of sports.

I have become famous for these threads, but I find them fun nonetheless. Many characterize March for its spring time, spring break, and even St. Patrick's Day. For me its March Madness. From the conference tournaments to the field of 65, there is just something mystical about it. Whether its Dick Vitales, "OOOOO OOOOO Did you see that he's on fire baby!" Or whether its Daugherty's, "A big slam for the little fella!" It brings hapinees to all. We all ask ourselves who will make an early exit? What are the upsets to look for? Who's this year's George Mason? When it comes time post upsets, post brackets (if the modes allow it), and have fun. Remember whatever you do don't choose it based on College Gameday. Another note try to print out the brackets before or after work, we don't need another lapse in the economy.
