"To say there was an athlete is a bit of stretch, but it works journalistically," joked Fabio Turchetta, "Why do they call it athlete's tomb? My great great great great grand mummy's in one, and believe me, she's no athlete!"

I remember an ancient joke about an important Roman who never spoke publicly. So when he mounted a speaking pedestal in the public square everyone rushed to hear what he finally had to say.
"Do you see that tree over on my property at the edge of the square?" the man proclaimed. "Many people have hanged themselves from it over the years. I just wanted to let everyone know I'm cutting it down next week - in case anyone wants to use it."

Bull hockey. 35 was never considered old.

The tomb of Gaius Cestius. Sadly its not open to the public, but its amazing that the marble cladding is still intact given the materials pilfering that befell much of ancient Rome [along the Appian Way. Credit: Two Year Trip]

suggested that the owners of the tomb came from a privileged social class, Mr. Musco said.
Roman Privilege, the precursor to dreaded White Privilege.

Maybe not in bull hockey, but in the NFL, 35 is ancient.
