    I prefer a different sort of sport when it comes to legs. Up, in the air...like that...

    Very nice Trajan Denarius. I like a lot of those portraits done during the Nerva and the five good emperors era.

    All the ancient threads have gotten weird since stevex joined. He's a bad influence, I'm telling you. :3three:

    He's convenient, plus it works. I tell my wife Jerry made me buy it.

    I thought about that in a trade with steve, the dealer but I opted for something else. I didnt think I could live with its wear.
