Neejer
Okay.. Thirty years late, but now I know: it’s not “nigh jer”; it’s “knee jair”. Don’t ask me how I thought that country was pronounced when I was seven (blushes).

Justice Roberts, you’re a new and better man,
He helps you to understand
He does nothing that he can, Justice Roberts.
Admiral. Explorer. Muslim. Eunuch. Leader of the greatest exploratory fleet known in his day; in fact, the biggest damn wooden ships ever built. 317 of them. The Chinese admiral

Hell yeah, it’s getting done. The first batch of flyers are done.
We postponed posting tonight due to rain.
God, I just went out in the garden for a few minutes just now and it felt great. It was the kind of rain–and that kind of weather– that would make you believe that the earth is nothing but one big paradise. But I digress…
I hope to have enough people to help out put up a coupla hundred this week, and lay them out strategically in clubs. Then, when I come back in a month, voila! No more dog poop. That’s the plan, stan.
Nero
Rome burst into flames on this day in 64 CE, a fire that lasted six days in which two-thirds of Rome was destroyed. It is up to debate whether Nero really had the fire started so as to build his extravagant Domus Aurea project, but public suspicion is most likely why he chose to blame it on the Christians, who were already widely disliked. Damn hippies.
As a result, Nero had them rounded up and killed in the most brutal fashion imaginable. It is often forgotten that most Romans actually found the extreme brutality of Nero’s persecution of the sect rather excessive and caused public opinion to shift in favor of the Christians.
200 years later, Emperor Constantine converts to Christianity.
