>>-Did your search indicate he was really nicknamed "The Piglet?" -:) I kind of doubt that he really was.>>
Piglet responded:
<<No, it was mentioned by the authors of the reviews.>>
--What did they say about it? Did they seem to know, or have an opinion, as to whether it was complete fiction?
<<Have you ever been to Italy and Rome to see the majesty of that Roman Empire? Or to France or the UK to see how extensive the empire actually was? It is truly amazing for 2 thousand years ago.>>
--No. I guess that is one of the few things I will miss in life.
<<If not, someday I'll bring my pictures to Vegas, so you can see the aquaducts that are still functioning, bringing pure mountain water to the city, the chariot tracks and depressions in the cobblestones on the Appia, and the view of, and from the Roman Forum, where emperors like you greeted the victorious returning armies. ;---)>>
--At the risk of making honey jealous, I would definitely like to see the pictures! -:)
<<p.s. Please get back to the topic of shamelessly spinning for Brinker so we don't get banished, and I can stop giving you recs! ;---)>>
--I do not "spin" for brinker. I simply defend him against unfair attacks. If you can find a post in which I "spun" for brinker, I will be very surprised.
PS: I know we're way off topic and need to get back on, but do you think you will ever read one of the Colleen McCullough books?
(One of my life's goals is to turn SOMEBODY onto those books. I have tried many times, but never succeeded)! -;) |
