A child can go only so far in life without potty training. It is not mere coincidence that six of the last seven presidents were potty trained, not to mention nearly half of the nation's state legislators.

I think so, Brain, but how will we get the Spice Girls into the paella?

OBB

Think of all the awesome plays and stuff that they could dig up from in there... more Sappho poems.... a new Sophocles or Euripides... it could change our perception of the ancient Greeks in the literature or dramatic fields!

Fine.  Can we have a pair of her panties?

If he's going to post a pic, I'd rather it be of them together instead of just her.

OBB

Soon, soon, I will have a picture.... and you'll all believe that I'm not making up a girlfriend to garner your sympathy.

I don't think anyone thinks that.  We just want to see the one repsonsible for taking you away from Junto.

That said, seriously, if you don't want to post a pic then don't.

also, if new works have been translated, i have to fit them into my theatre history lecture pronto. especially if the roman plays are ANY GOOD AT ALL.

I can't speak for all, but I know that the part of theatre history that I liked the most was hearing about the architecture of their theatres and how it affected staging and relationships with the audience.  I also liked the deus ex machina and the ekyklema (of which I've probably just butchered the spelling).  The texts didn't interest me much, because the formats were too standardized.  Aristotle can eat my ass with his "poetics".

Anyway, my point is this: Screw the texts.  ;)
