More Linky Goodness
I've stumbled upon
this several times over the last few days and decided that it's far too good not to pass on to y'all. We definitely need more people like that.
In completely different news, I'll be on a business trip to Warsaw, Poland for the next few days, visiting a prospective new customer of ours. Why my boss keeps on choosing me for such jobs when I'm notoriously bad at anything sales/acquisiton/customer relations related is rather beyond me, but we'll see how it pans out...

My, my, the old Romans sure were a pervy bunch.
The had rather explicit frescos adorning their bath houses, like say,
this painting of a hot MMF threesome or
that one of a nice bit of cunnilingus. And rather unsurprisingly, the house containing those frescos, identified as the only known building from those times that people are reasonably sure was a whore house, is one of the highlights of the guided tours through Pompeji.
But it gets better than those tasteful attempts at interior decoration. The National Archaeological Musuem in Naples, Italy has a whole
collection of antique stuff ranging from tasteful nudity to explicit depictions of
Pan getting it on with a goat. They also seem to have had a healthy attraction to the penis, especially to the big, gigantic or humongous specimens, if
some of those statues are anything to go by. I would dearly love to know, though, what they used
these" for - probably oil lamps (what an absolutely kinky idea - ouch!), because I don't think the old Romans were in the habit of smoking...
Hot stuff. (via
boingboing).
This post was brought to you by my ongoing inability to write more than two paragraphs full of semi-coherent verbiage.
