masterblaster72 0 #26 December 9, 2007 QuotePah... what did the Romans ever do for us? Gave you more than half the vocabulary in your language, for starters. Be humble, ask questions, listen, learn, follow the golden rule, talk when necessary, and know when to shut the fuck up. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The invention of concrete, the arched roof, aqua ducts, The highway system is another invention of the Romans as was indoor plumbing and the flushing toilet and the sewer system to flush it into.

happythoughts 0 #37 December 9, 2007 QuoteYeah but apart from that, what did the Romans ever do for us? Hadrians Wall. After conquering the known world and civilizing the barbarian tribes, it was determined that the Scots were just too much trouble. A nice wall is just what was needed to keep them out. The vomitorium During the weeklong, mid-winter party known as Saturnalia, a place to sleep off and repair. Too bad that Christianity became so popular. Instead of singing carols, we could be hold a bottle of bourbon and singing Louie Louie with 4 strippers. We pass out fruitcakes instead. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
