They remembered blood sacrifices and temple building, what else do you want?
Damn, a patent office, that’s what we should’ve built!
It was their anniversary.

I think they left the design schematics in their other pants--you know, the pair they didn't take to the New World.

The remembered the wheel, but they hadn't yet invented the secretary.

There is, however, a lot of cheese in Switzerland!

Can we use this thread to talk about cheese in mesoamerica, though? Because the cheese from Oaxaca is the best thing I've ever eaten. I have dreams sometimes of swimming around in huge pools of it, in all its stringy goodness.

This thread was pretty obviously a dismal faliure, despite being really, realy funny, so go ahead and use it for whatever you want. [Smile]
