Wow...I guess you know so much...

run along now, we dont want you to be late for your Mensa meeting.....

Now, Thats really dissapointing.
I would have expected so much more from an officer of the law.

The statement was actually easy to reply to without any kind of hostility with Just the littlest amount of thought

Nick, what did you expect, you didn't exactly compliment the man, did you? So, what's with the name change?

Thanks for the touch up on the historical matter. Although it is interesting, I always thought of it as more of a legend, like Bes stated. Maybe thats why the professor at the Uni did not go into much detail.
Legend - Possibly, Who knows.
But then where exactly do you start questioning history?
For instance there is everybit as much evidence of these events as there is in the lifes and times of one Jesus Christ............

Yet where you dont raise an eyebrow at the possibilty of Thermopylae being a mere legend the response is much different to questioning the Divine One, No?

Actually, Angus Thermopyl reminds me of Libero, or more commonly known as Kaiser Franco. Examining the posts and replys of Angus, they look rather similar to those of Libero. Maybe just a conspiracy theorist, but its rather funny how Kaiser appeared just seconds after Angus left for a break.

@Andy - Conspiracy theory? Now you really are trying to be Italian. You should stop because you could not even find Italy on the map, have no idea about Italian culture, and probably make your Pescatore with fettucini instead of linguini, you wop-wannabe bastard :D

Unless there is a "Thermopylaen" faith which I am not aware about, then you can question certain historical matter over religious matter. That's the whole basis of faith.

But you do have a point, and considering I have heard "legend" associated with this subject a few times, it must have stuck. Actually I'm not a historian (yet), so I do not have enough information to form a concreate opinion on the matter. Therefore, it remains unanswered.

There is also a lengend that one Sergio Lenza held off a dozen starving cafones at a Knights of Columbus meeting, using only a salad fork. He kept the cafones at bay for 16 days, stabbing and jabbing at anybody who approached the proscuitto that his mom had cured in her basement. Finally, he was overrun, and two oak trees grow where the heroic stand took place.

See, Now you've left Libero in a Catch-22

If he rushes back with denial, Hes obviously covering up whereas if he doesnt return soon then he is clearly hiding as his identity has been revealed.

Is He or isnt He - The world is full of questions

Well, its rather difficult to do so considering Naples is actually the name of cities in three different locations.

Football is the most popular sport in Italy, is it not? Or maybe it was beach volleyball....

Pescatore is similar to fettucini alfredo with seafood, is it not?

I'm such a disgrazie. :D

Stating the obvious aren't we? The world is full of questions, but some are dumber than others...

Ok, So the slight I wanted to get across was somewhat vague. Cannot get it right everytime
Reminds me of the words of Plato:

"Those who admit they know nothing have taken the first steps of gaining knowledge."

Or something of the sorts.
