[PSEUDOLUS]
Hail, Miles Gloriosus.
Welcome to Rome.
Your bride awaits you.
[MILES]
My bride…
My bride!
My bride!
I’ve come to claim my bride,
Come tenderly to crush her against my side.
Let haste be made!
I cannot be delayed:
There are lands to conquer, cities to loot and peoples to degrade.
[SOLDIERS]
Look at those arms!
Look at that chest!
Look at them!
[MILES]
Not to mention the rest.
Even I am impressed!
My bride!
My bride!
Come, bring to me my bride.
My lust for her no longer can be denied.
Convey the news!
I have no time to lose:
There are towns to plunder, temples to burn and women to abuse.
[SOLDIERS]
Look at that foot!
Look at that heel!
Mark the magnificent muscles of steel!
[MILES]
I am my ideal!
I, Miles Gloriosus,
I, slaughterer of thousands,
I, oppressor of the meek,
Subduer of the weak,
Degrader of the Greek,
Destroyer of the Turk,
Must hurry back to work.
[MILES & ROMANS:]
I/he, Miles Gloriosus,
[SOLDIERS]
A man among men!
[MILES & ROMANS:]
I/he, paragon of virtue,
[SOLDIERS]
With sword and with pen!
[MILES]
I, in war the most admired,
In wit the most inspired,
In love the most desired,
In dress the best displayed–
I am a parade!
[SOLDIERS]
Look at those eyes, cunning and keen,
Look at the size of those thighs, like a mighty machine!
[PSEUDOLUS]
Those are the mightiest thighs that I ever have theen!
I mean…
[MILES]
My bride!
My bride!
Inform my lucky bride:
The fabled arms of
Miles are open wide.
Make haste!
Make haste!
I have no time to waste:
There are shrines
I should be sacking,
Ribs I should be cracking,
Eyes to gouge and booty to divide.
Bring me my bride!
I know i haven’t been in the Village for a while, but as I wrote to Slim, I’ve been up to my arse in work hours to cover extra costs for school this year.
Been fighting a bug as well and the combo has had me too pooped to pop. Feeling a bit better.
Missed everybody, that’s for sure. Glad the Village seems to be still going.
I’m afraid I’m not going to be here long tonight, but I’ll try to get back again tomorrow as well.
G’Morning everybody. Hey, have any of you golfers tried that web site advertised here, www.peakperformancegolfswing.com ? I have a friend who almost swears by it.
Man O Man what a day over here. Pouring down rain all day. Overcast and gloomy.
I saw they had a huge car crash in Phoenix Ariz.
I sure hope Marg wasn’t involved (you know she’s been kinda accident prone lately) Guess I better see if she responds to e-mail.
I had a delicious weekend. pasta and sauce for supper Friday, and managed to get wrapped around a small slice of strawberry pie! Saurday had scranbled eggs, sausage and home fried potatoes. Dinner, grilled salmon, home-made Macaroni salad and mixed vegetables and a wedge of strawberry pie (home-made) for dessert.
Weather-wise, loghting and thunder last night, witn a brief down-pour, then contued lightning yo the south over the Catalina Mins. for quite some time.. More of the same around noon today, that I saw coming hours before it reached us. She has a roofed screened in porch where i could sit and watch. The rain poured,the lightninh boomed and the wind blew the rain almost horizontal and chased me back inside. IT WAS GREAT, I LOVED IT!!!!!!
@ Shirt Tail Slim, glad you had a good time, some commenters wounderd where you were, my last post
reminded them ,that you told us you were going to see your platonic 29 yr old for strawberry good stuff, so I brought them up to speed. Glad your safe and sound and
reads like your had a menu one would dream of and still
gain weight HEH, HEH
I’m baaa-aaaack!
Had an awesome time on the cruise. Never knew how good it feels to be pampered. We flew home today instead of spending 2-3 more days on the road in my brother’s car.
Alaska is incredible. Watched a glacier calve and saw lots of trees, mountains and wildlife, both on shore and on the sea. Did you know that Alaska has all the same jewelers that are in Cabo, St Thomas, etc, but it is all duty-free because it’s in the good ole US of A. The deals were incredible. This little lady got very pampered in that department, as did both of my sisters-in-law.
I will try to upload a photo or two if I can get some help in doing so (of Alaska, not the jewelry).

You’ve got me on that one, ML. It must be from a musical. A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum, perhaps?
Roger Smith about 14 years ago
One question? Why is Slim not here? I have written to him today but not gotten a response yet. Did I miss something?
margueritem about 14 years ago
I think that he was visiting a friend this weekend.
