Legions of Rome

Man, I really hope some poor, unsuspecting SOB does a Google search for that Legions of Rome book and gets directed here to the horrors of Japanese seaweed pizza, gas station take out, and NYC tap water.

^Did you buy the book?

I can vouch for Bes' story on Greeks improving pizza in NYC. My parents went to Rome circa 1970 and ordered pizza and were horribly disappointed when it came served with a raw egg on top.

I would think that Neapolitan pizza would be a little better than Roman but I guess not!

Nope. Got it reserved at the library. It should be back in next Wednesday. If I like it, I'll buy it.

Please report back.

Wait...what? I have to do a book report now? Man......

^ with pictures! Crayon is OK as long as you use at least 8 colors including one of the 'metallics' for the Roman armor. :D

We've been known to derail a thread or two ;-)

Bastards! So the festering vaginal fart who had the book out of the library before me "returned" it in the overnight slot and, according to the super hot Filipina librarian, it was covered in some sort of red goop and mold. No word on just what the goop was. I blame Gus and his pizza awareness initiative.

I blame Belial and his uberness.

Uber Ol' Nick? I'm sure Shaitan could come up with something better than Honeymoon Lube (Cherry) and Roquefort Slime to corrupt a disapproved-of tome.

I think I am going to buy this today.

My library has a copy they'll let go cheap.

I'm trying to cut down on the goo.

When it comes to innuendo, I've come to the conclusion you purposely pitch it right over the plate. It's the only explanation...

He has no shame. He has his dog's balls on his mantle for cryin' out loud.
