I had a conversation with a young employee of mine yesterday who was all pumped up over seeing the new “300” movie...
I injected some reality into his young mind about who and what the Spartans were...aka your post....
Hope I didn’t ruin the movie for him...LOL...
I particularly enjoyed the part in 300 where the Spartans sneered at the Athenians for being boy-lovers. LOL
