    That’s true greatness.

    One of the legacies of Steve Jobs was to provide all his workers with a copy of «Autobiography of a yogi» by Paramahansa Yogananda. Both that book and the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali describes that the ability to be present at different locations at the same time, are a part of the Yogis later development. I’m unsure if any ancient yoga mats have been dug up in Macedonia, but who knows. :)

    Weight in carats. The seller must be a jeweler. Carats sound definitely much more impressive than grams.

    BTW: The next time you give someone a ring with a 1 carat diamond, you shouldn't mention that 1 carat is only 0.2g ;)

    I just love this kind of academic descriptions, show some credit to the seller, he spent about 40 second composing this gem.

    Before Christmas I noticed a fantastic coin, on an auction site.
    It was badly corroded, on the obverse you could see something that might have resembled a portrait (or a bike, a bottle of wine, whatever you can imagine), on the obverse absolutely nothing.
    The description was "This could be Roman or Greek but most likely this is a local imitation of a Republican Denarius showing Minerva and quadriga! possible Zeus with thunderbolt! VERY rare!"
    I regret that my budget was already suffering. I didn't even save the fantastic coin and description, you don't see them everyday.
