Happy Birthday

While we wait for the rebirth of European nobility and whatnot, we should stop, reflect and cheer for on this day, in 753 B.C., Rome was founded by Romulus and Remus. Great guys, great town - and even greater Empire.

How do we celebrate such an august occasion? Apart from slaughtering barbarians, and cursing recalcitrant Gauls?

Well, when you're done with that, you can always check out some music. Like the latest album from Rome, Masse Mensch Material. It really sets the mood for those late night bacchanalias.

So three Cheers to the Roman Republic, three cheers for Romulus and Remus and three cheers for the Circus Maximus.

SPQR!
