#3 Fred, about three months ago I was sitting in a deli and two homeless guys were talking about x, y, z axis and multi-dimensional dimensions when a third homeless guy raced in and started explaining some complex abstract they were confused about that he solved. I swear! They sounded like the last few paragraphs at your link. They were the smartest homeless people I had ever heard. Then they started talking about where the best place to sleep for the night would be.

#4 I've been around alot of home less people in my struggles through life. Alot of them are very articulate. Heard some ver good singers in jail. Just because you hit hard times or fucked up never means you don't have the brains of talent.

#5 They were the smartest homeless people I had ever heard.

Or they could have been mathematicians . . . .

#6 They sounded like the last few paragraphs at your link.

That was only the end of the first chapter, Vespasian Ebbereng3110. If you go back to the top of the page, you’ll discover there are 19 more chapters written thus far, available to the reader for the merest click. ;-)

#7 When I was in college, the prof for the Phil 101 offering was what you would expect from a philosophy professor: gangly, Adams apple that stuck out almost as fat as his big hawk nose, an out of control mop of curly brown hair and a rumpled tweed sport coat that he wore every day all year.

One day a classmate saw me in passing and said "I saw Professor F__ sleeping on a park bench just now!"

"He's conducting research," I replied.

#8 Fascinating premise Fred! Looking forward to the read. Romans here, how will they deal with the natives.

Speaking of premise, Assassin 33 AD. Muslims grab a time machine to murder the Christ.

#9 Sounds interesting from the description. Fred, you are very prolific in your writings. I don't see how you find the time.
