I should have known, given your views about the ancestral home of the Indo-Europeans, that you are from Cleaveland; for what can a Cleavelander know of homelands? Other cives here may not know what Pittsburghers have always known - that the exiles and expatriates of the world are ineluctably drawn to your dismal shores. ['quote]
Yes, we would appear cosmopolitan to a bunch of inbred ridgerunners from the Pitts. As I recall, our conditor Florus was originally from the Pitts, but fled there to eventually find his paradise in Poland.

Tell me Senator, can one still enter that cave in Willoughby and emerge again at Avernus?

Inbred ridgerunner? We patrol our limited borders with West Virginia, and inspect inbound Monongahela traffic for mountaineers in search of indoor plumbing. All of WVA's other main rivers flow in to the Ohio, and from there it's straight up the Muskigum, a short portage, and a float down the Cuyonoga. No wonder chicken-fried possum is such a frequent lunch special in Parma.
Ambrosius Celetrus wrote:I was referring to this quote when thinking of my ex:
" Etruscan women take particular care of their bodies and exercise often, sometimes along with the men, and sometimes by themselves. It is not a disgrace for them to be seen naked. Further, they dine, not with their own husbands, but with any men who happen to be present, and they pledge with wine any whom they wish. They are also expert drinkers and are very good looking " Theopompus of Chios, Histories, 43.
My ex-wife inspired a lot of poems and sleepless nights
