Interesting link. Thanks. +1 on the not making this a religious thread. I'd even go one further and say not a political thread either.  |

Amazing that 500+ years on those wax seals are still intact.

Last May, my wife and I were in Rome and we had booked a tour of the excavation under the Vatican. What an interesting and enjoyable experience. I am not religious in the least but, this is well worth doing if you ever have the chance. You need to book it months in advance though.

Whether you are religious (I'm most definitely not Catholic) or not there's just SO much history there. |

Boxer rebellion, the Holy Child. They all pay their rent.
But none together can testify to the rhythm of a road well bent.
Saddles and zip codes, passports and gates, the Jones' keep.
In August the water is trickling, in April it's furious deep.

Psst, Brad. Check your geography. I think he meant the Pantheon. 
On the other hand, he was drinking heavily. Perhaps he was in Athens.  |

I DON'T believe in reincarnation, but that is scary.
