Things That Warm My Cold, Cold Heart
- Misreading two lines in a Chicagoboyz post, a review of a book on the fall of the Roman Empire. They give the table of contents, which includes these lines:
1. Romans 3
2. Barbarians 46
I couldn’t help reading that as a football score — Romans 3, Barbarians 46 — which is not a bad summary of the worst part of the fifth century.
- Finding Opera Quae Fuperfunt as a title in the ABE Books data base.
- While still half-asleep at 6:40 am yesterday, I thought of a good title for a novel about a decadent esthete with an NRA membership: Molon La-Bàs.
