Mrs G and I are more TV people than movie people. We have what I term "an aggressive television viewing schedule" with TiVo season passes to way too many shows to keep up. Shows that we currently watch are: Heroes Journeyman Back to You Cane Kid Nation The Office Friday Night Lights Curb Your Enthusiasm ER (her) Grey's Anatomy (her) We will also watch the following when they return: LOST American Idol Battlestar Gallactica Flight of the Conchords 24 (I generally lose interest 8 hours or so in) In addition, I love football and have the NFL Season Ticket so that I can watch my New Yawk football Giants every week. I will also watch almost any college game that's on (BC vs Va Tech last night ... wow!).

I'll put it at late Republic / early empire. Has a look about him of the Gens Pompeius almost ...

I need some more clues. I think it's time I use the bat signal for the Big A:

Excavation work at the Villa of the Papyri

Would have come in handy at Cannae. Or Carrhae for that matter. Cannae/Carrhae ... Tomato/Tomahto
