  1. I’m surprised they didn’t include the seven vestal virgins who would decide who would live or die during battles in the Coliseum.

    1. Well now, that’s quite an addition. What’s more surprising is how you pull these thoughts out so early in the morning. Shock and awe, it really is.

      1. Laughing…count on me…very strange way that my head works (there is some humor in having the pot calling the kettle black here, pal). I always felt bad for those girls. They were forcibly ‘retired’ from their jobs (so to speak) at 30. So these young women at the risk of death themselves had to make the thumbs up or down decision on behalf of the Emperor. To have that on your conscience when you’re barely old enough to appreciate what a conscience is. I don’t know, seems like a lousy job to me.

        1. I love you guys, I really do. Where ELSE on the web could one go to chat about vestal virgins, vomit removal and leech collection, all before 7a EST? 🙂

  2. This is where the real “salt of the earth” group gathers in the early hours of the morning…brave enough to speak of unspeakable things all before breakfast. 🙂

  3. Everyone should read this…maybe this would make a lot of people realize how lucky they are to have a job.
