Ones we didn't know existed.
"there's a long tradition of insulting people we disagree with here, and I'll be damned if I listen to your entreaties otherwise."-OVB

"Obviously not a Berkut-commanded armored column.  They're not all brewing."- CdM

"We've reached one of our phase lines after the firefight and it smells bad—meaning it's a little bit suspicious... Could be an amb—".

I have this fantasy that during some Italian work project they are going to break into a vault containing all the lost works of antiquity :P

My fantasies are so nerdy  :blush:

It is hard to say which one I would most want to have without knowing what they are. Though I was bummed JP Morgan bought that collection of George Washington's dirty jokes and burned them to protect GW's reputation. Man that would be awesome to have.

Didn't you see the movie?  The Camorra discovered it south of Naples, dumped toxic waste on top of it, and covered it over.

The first page is just acknowledgements. 

To Shlomo and Hodel Goldberg, for their patience and for letting me crash on their couch.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Raz is right. -MadImmortalMan March of 2017
