M. Porcius Cato Posted March 15, 2007 Report Share Posted March 15, 2007 Thanks to all of you for your best wishes and for your many references to that odious darling of Venus, whom the Liberators returned to her on this glorious day. (BTW, Augusta has no need to eat her hat, but she should perhaps gnaw on one, as my birthday falls squarely within the Festival of Mars.)

And directly precedes the Bacchanalia. Not that you should need the excuse to party hard for your natal day celebration. Interesting how the Bacchanalia coincides with St. Patrick's Day -- another day given over to drinking and revelry. -- Nephele Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I think it was a party for Bona Dea (a far more decorous deity) that Clodius crashed. -- Nephele Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
