Great stuff Doc! On a side note, I just so happen to know that Siri is quite useless here (oh, well, I actually live in Berlin atm, regardless...) in Sweden - but I'm not sure if it has to do with out barbarian accent or missing programming.

[....here the reason why i was quiet the last week or two... (BABY!)]

Great news Viggen! I really happy for you!

[Take my picture]

Thanks for the pics Doc, they are appreciated!

Glad to hear that your computer work again. I reckon that I had a bad case of withdrawal symptoms the last time the one I use died - such a pain.

Damn, I want one of those cameras.

Yeah it's even worse than my place.

Great to see that you're on your way back to us!

 

I'm afraid that my blog is still off site but everyone's still welcome to visit it.

[Boy do I feel like a piece of shit...]

I cannot find a good way to formulate this, but I couldn't agree more. Tom is and will be missed for a long time.

[My first wiki edit.]

RESIST THE URGE TO EDIT, DUDE! Next, you'll be Twittering!

 

Haha no way, I can't try that too! My blog is taking enough of my time!

[Mondays.]

So they can clean up the mess after the weekend party probably. And you thought museums were dull...

 

Tsss... I want to create that mess with them

[The Empire is growing]

Thanks for sharing the stats Viggen!

[Back In The Saddle Again]

Iit's great to know that you've found a new job

[The Real Me]

I really don't see the fascination with baby pictures. Must be a female thing.

I must agree.

 

But does anyone want a little page somewhere on UNRV that has a photo and maybe a little bio of the regulars?

 

I would like that actually.

Hey Klingan !

 

I have been getting up to date with your blog (the other one). Great pictures again. Did you do the very first part of the Via Appia Antiqua on foot ? Well, I survived it and you are a young man, so. But you have to be pretty quick on your feet there, no ? And did you see the little 'Quo Vadis?'-church along the way ? It has a real footprint of Christ. Well, not the real one. It is a copy of the real one which they keep at the curch of San Sebastiano or so a bit further on.

And the picture of the Porta Maggiore. I think yours is taken from outside the Walls. I was staying in the square just inside them last time I was in Rome (five years already), so I had a pretty similar view.

 

Vale optime !

Hey thanks for the comments! Yup I walked all the way from the Circus Maximus, went into the church (I totally missed the footprint, but I familiarized myself with the Domine Quo Vadis story) and up to the Villa dei Quintili (a new favourite!)

 

Yep the view is from the outside as I wanted to take the picture in line with the light How long were you in Rome for?

[The Real Me]

Aha! Unless we all post our baby photos as originally intended. I'm sure I can come up with another kiddie pic.

 

I could do that as well, but I would have to get home to Sweden first, I didn't pack my baby-myself-collection

[The Real Me]

This thread should be a front page article. "Match the Faces to the Names."

 

Haha too bad that so many have revealed themselves already!

And I thought dreaming about being stuck in an atrium was scary

(p.s. I'm the one on the left! )

 

So they all say

[The Real Me]

Wow how could I miss this thread. Anyway there have always been my picture (And real name I believe) in my profile, but I might just as well post it here too.

 

It's updated as lately as two weeks ago actually!

On the other hand engineering will make you uniquely qualified and gives you a safety net in case the PhD-thing doesn't work out (it happens).

 

A good point that continues to haunt me.

[Time to make a choice]

I'm feeling German right now.

[Time to make a choice]

I thought you had a Masters in Ancient Studies. How come you're thinking of going into something completely different like engineering?

 

One degree isn't enough to get a PhD in Sweden (In Ancient History), I need to get at least a bachelors to have a fair chance. The question is in what - Engineering would give me a rather unique perspective (if I can find a good program/good courses), languages would open up much more literature. Both might be though.

It's great to see you here Aurelia! I would like to recommend you visiting Melvadius albums if you have some spare time! He have posted a lot of beautiful pictures.
