I don’t know where this picture came from or what it is doing on my computer. What I do know is that I couldn’t decide what to post today. After cat pictures I think food pictures are the most common thing shared on the internet. But I don’t understand why anyone would care about any […]
2003 Cats
In a shameless attempt to drive traffic to this site, and knowing that the internet was invented for sharing cat pictures, today is a cat photo essay. I found these in a file labelled 2003 on my backup drive. given that I am not a big cat fan, I can only assume these were taken […]

Colosseum II
It’s an iconic sight and no visitor to Rome should skip it. We call it the Colosseum, but its formal title is the Flavian Amphitheatre, taking its name from the three emperors during whose reign it was constructed. Completed in 80 A.D., a good chunk of the building still stands despite the ravages of time […]
The Sign Says It All!
