  1. I think alot of it went with the modern school systems...twisting it around, and various countries using it for propaganda...and of course those people who got their "artistic license" from a Cracker Jack box
  2. METALLIC sealing wax...yea...RIGHT! lol
  3. LOL and I didn't notice...did the horses have stirrups on them? Because Roman saddles did NOT have stirrups lol.
  4. Rome lives always on in the hearts of men. Long live the great Caesar, leader of men long after his leaving the world. Ave Caesar! Ave Caesar! Ave Caesar!
  5. Oh, I saw some of that show. I was a big fan of Ant.
  6. Me too I think this is a "six hour movie" (I read that somewhere) meaning that we have 3 more episodes to go. Destroy all of it excpept Tyrannus (yes, I am female LOL)
  7. Jeff Foxworthy, George Carlin and Larry the Cable Guy
  8. I honestly never heard that one, although it may be that I was too busy admiring Rome to notice LOL.
  9. "Hey, Lord of the Flame. Your tail's on fire" -the tiger in Ice Age
  10. You aren't typing *with* your feet while you have them up, are you?
  11. LOLOL!! I've read that before somewhere (well...not exactly...it was a paraphrasing which refered to Caesar as a "bald old lady killer") Thanks for the info!
  12. Oh, wow, thanks! By the way, does anyone know of any legion marching songs? (i'm sure they had them)
  13. Hmm...I actually think that was a particular time period that had that...it probably was to protect the back of the neck...but if you are letting your enemy get behind you on a regular basis you have bigger problems...
  14. The music. I never saw the thing lol. (I do know its in the gladiator soundtrack which i have...but could be the same people that did the music)
  15. Ok, this is going to sound weird, but does anyone know the name of the Roman music instrament that has "appeared" in both the Gladiator music and more recently, Empire? It's...very high pitched and reedy.... It kind of sounds like someone is choking a bagpipe
  16. Julius actually looked like Julius. They didn't show him for long enough to tell whether or not he acted like the real thing...I think they were more concerned with the senate then Caesar himself. All in all I think their protrayal of Caesar was fairly accurate. I hope this isn't off topic but I think it's hilarious how striking the resemblance between Cassius and Dubya
  17. I'm an...."ecclectic pagan" I guess...I believe in all of the Gods (Roman, Greek, Celtic, etc.) but I usually only pray to The Morrigan and occasionally Brighid and others for specific things.
  18. hm...off the top of my head: Chainmail=lorica hamata Segmented plate stuff (is there an english word??)=lorica segmenta or segmentata depending on who you ask Roman shortsword=gladius Javalin type thing=pilum Roman dagger=pudgio (i may have spelled that wrong) and that's all I can think of right now Shield=scutum
  19. I was laughing over the gladiator dungeon as well. They didn't kill Tyrannus off did they? If they did, I'm gonna reach through the TV and choke them!!
  20. i've checked into the chat room several times, and no one seems to be on whenever i'm there. does anyone ever go in there? maybe we should set a time for chat so that people will all be there at the same time (like 7-10 or something)
  21. Oh, longbow beat me too it. oh well. Thanks Longbow!
  22. I've seen the hand somewhere...I was trying to find a picture of all the standards together. I'll have to dig through my giant list O' links.
  23. In that sense, I believe in spirits as well ::grins:: most people just think i'm schizo.
