FORTINGALL & PONTIUS PILATE
There is a tradition which ascribes Fortingall as the birthplace of Pontius Pilate, the son of an Augustan ambassador and a local woman.
Yer participation will be appreciated...MUD
After a cursory Google Search there doesn't seem to be a concensus on his birthplace, as I seen Scotland, Germany & Rome mentioned.
There is a tradition which ascribes Fortingall as the birthplace of Pontius Pilate, the son of an Augustan ambassador and a local woman.Good trivia question! jla did an awsome job, but I see Meek the whiz has it nailed...I didn't know that.
As you know, I like quotes.
Here's a couple'a quotes fer ya' today.
I'd like someone to explain following quote, and try not to fall asleep readin' it:
"Probability distributions that are estimated largely, or exclusively, over cycles excluding periods of panic will underestimate the probability of extreme price movements because they fail to capture a secondary peak at the extreme negative tail that reflects the probability of occurrence of a panic." -- Alan Greenspan
??? what did he say???...
Reporter quote about the Tyson and Tonya fights:
"No one lost an ear, no one lost a kneecap!"
Bwaahahaa! Tyson won, the Pride of Portland, OR lost...
FBD doesn't think that a fight between Tyson and Tonya was fair...where's yer' dignity Tonya?
And this quote, I don't know who said it originaly, but I'd like to know:
"If you're not livin' on the edge you're taking up too much space."
Myself, I like a little space...heh,heh...
I'm off to get me head soaked...catch ya' later.
FRegards,
