Nero Claudius Drusus, etc.

Punica fides in the metropolitan Leeds transport zone! Next they will start jumping the railway turnstiles without validating their tickets.

Nor was it last year. Graham looked on the bright side of life in 1989, but ... you don't need to follow anybody! You've got to think for yourselves! You're all individuals.

NYC is already there. Which is why I am supervising the mise en place for Antonia's evening meal at "7:50" p.m. (Apparently due to the time change, causing all of the kitchen staff to fail to appear, I also shopped for Antonia's meal, dressed it, chopped everything, and...will soon cook it.)

Yep, the link on OCRE brings it up listed as a "medallion" in Paris. BnF seems to hqve several similar items, likely due to that Victory. I may have another variant as a medal as well, modern, someplace.

Not an expert, but I would say the point about letting him drive the car is perhaps the only task where one completely cedes control of the net outcome.

Pity the country that needs a pop-tart- peeps concoction. Pity the country that has no pop-tart- peeps concoction.

Even Agrippa doesn't deserve this, and who is this "Tiberias" who apparently was instrumental in the Nazarene's demise?

Safety Tip: if you impulse buy beach-reading at your LBS, skim more than I did. I stopped at Ch 2, as I anticipate that "In Fourteen Hundred and Ninety-Two, Columbus Sailed the Ocean Blue", will be cited as a source.

Same show as the Aurora exclamation, but the set up -- "Regional dialect...
--Upstate New York
"Really? Well, I'm from Utica and I've never heard anyone use the phrase 'steamed hams'.
-- Oh, not in Utica, no. It's an Albany expression."

One of our favorite snow spots. Back in the day, I would take Germanicus and Claudius there to play <Earn a Mural Crown> in the snow, at the other end, a bit closer to Dave Farragut.

Initially, I was doubtful as to the quality of this product, yet when I read the manual, my doubts were dispelled. My plan had already excluded touching "unfamiliar water buffalo animals".

No one tells a Claudius not to use a knife... Especially when we are packing for a journey.

Personally, I miss the days when commerce during major spectacles focused one's attention on important issues, such as whether Castrol protects an engine better than Pennzoil, or, gods forfend, Valvoline. Not that I willingly attend spectacles, except to accede to the expectations of the People.

"Gens" is the default setting.

My Mom worked for the great Arthur Liman at Paul Weiss. I knew Brad Karp as an associate decades ago. Mom disliked him immediately. I grew up at Paul Weiss. As a Kennedy legacy devotee I was in awe seeing Ted Sorensen walking to his office, and meeting him! They would NEVER cave in to the 🍊🤡.

I would also advise Dr P to hold out for the promise of a decent provincial command or the farming of the tax revenue of the same (if an equestrian jury), usually offered slightly before the end of the accuser's case, by either side.

Due to your vast influence, I must magisterially note there's no upper limit in NY or Federal courts. Folks can apply for age exemption, but not necessarily granted at the low end without disability. Spry retirees are prized jurors to some lawyers & they show up on time, which judges like.

A Manhattan Winterscape...

Perhaps it had one of the traditional gibes chalked up on munitions and the fellow took it too literally? <Up yours, Fritz!>, "Take this Tojo!> or, as the slingboys did outside Perugia, <For Fulvia's...>

Yes, we are down to the Judicial Branch as the third arresting wire on this listing boat. And Judge Biery was "Texas Young Lawyer of the Year" 45 years ago; he cannot be either fired or promoted from his current position, so we get reality only from such "Senior Status" judges.

This was an important presentation and innovation, thank you. Even though I only understood the search words!

A veritable Winter Wonderland in Manhattan on the morning after the "storm".

Tell them you saw a gigantic woman on the far side of a misty river, wordlessly and abiguously waiving you back.

Poor people not being shown is very Houston. Lack of context is very Houston. As to depictions of women in Houston, perhaps the lack of female cheerleaders or plastic surgery in Rome limits the depictions that the museum could find sponsors for. (Houston is my 2nd least favorite city in US.)

I've tracked down many a malefactor over the years, but I have to say "obscure researcher" doesn't narrow the pool of suspects much.

I particularly enjoyed this phrase: "Now the long-running historical battle is due to be settled for good, as three local historians present their cases at a mock trial in front of a judge."

Another Julio-Claudian January Third in the books, after all the inaugurations and such. Even joined Herod Agrippa & family for the start of his new term in office.

After a patient wait of three years, I will now finally get to read what I had the merest glimmer of a faint sense about at the Warsaw Conference, as I was yet again unable to journey east of the Elbe (and I was not very attentive at 3:00 a.m. NY time). Nice production.

Let us face the daunting challenges of the New Year with cheerful fortitude like Sempronius Pitio's Janus, even though 2025 felt like 365 bad hair days for Pompeius!

Take comfort that Pol Roger's "Cuvee Sir Winston Churchill" Champagne was more than thoroughly road-tested by the man himself.
