I can usually count on Lynn to post something that makes me chuckle at least once a week. This is this week's:If Ancient Rome had the Internet.

Some examples:

The destruction of Pompeii in 79AD is the most viewed video at YouTube. The first comment is..."OMG so cool! Volcanos ROCK!"

Hannibal blogs his way across the Alps with posts like, "Whoops, lost another elephant today."

The volume of spam collapses when the penalty for not providing a working opt-out mechanism becomes equal billing with the lions at the eBay Colosseum.

But we still get emails featuring Brunhilda, the lonely Visigoth, and hot deals on cheap peacock livers from Gaul.

Nobody invents a spam filter good enough for the House of the Vestals.
