"The ancient palace in Rome that provided the backdrop for many of Emperor Caligula's wildest depravities has been found..."

Grand reopening will be just in time to host the Democrat convention prior to the 2004 election.

This is a selling point?

I thought it was located in Houston, Texas off Westheimer.

Ya think Penthouse might have a website? Just a guess.

Been there, did that, got the t-shirt. (Fun time, bad drivers.)

Looks a lot like this:

He believed himself to be the supreme God Zeus and made his horse a senator.

and made his horse a senator"
...as did Bill Clinton.


LOL

[Montfort]

At least Caligula made the WHOLE horse a Senator, not just one end of it.

[eleni121]

The parallel's between Slick Willie and Little Boot could start a list. For one- Slick appointed Hitlery to a Commission on Health (?) and Caligula appointed his horse as Counsul...

The Liberation of Grenada and the wacked out venture in the Balkans have absolutely nothing in common IMO.

[Jemian]

Wouldn't he have thought himself to be Jupiter, the supreme Roman god. I understood Zeus to be the Greek god.

**made his
horse a senator.***

Kennedy?

[Darheel]

I'd recommend "I, Claudius". The movie Caligula was erratic and unsteady, but still a fascinating(lol) history snack. It's debauched, but really isn't worthy of an X rating by today's standards imho.
