Hurrah, donatives!

If we acclaim a new imperator, will we get more? :twisted:

Heck, even if we don't get more does anyone here deserve the title 'Augustus' more than Jasper?

Seriously!!

He generates all these medals and things for us, get Jim (Tarbicus) to make a medal for Jasper, something approriately purple for the new Augusti, perhaps an aureus with jasper's name and dates of ascension?

I am serious as well Travis, the smilie aside. I agree. Jasper needs an award unique to him, befitting his imperial status.

A purple paludamentum?
A huge crowd of lictores?
A throne?

My Mom had me at age 17 in the year 1977. She gave birth to me at 7 months, not 9. My son is my mother's firs grandson, which is the seventh grandchild. Philip of Macedon was discovered in 1977 and he was the 17th ruler of Macedonia. And now, I am in seventh place for contributing to the forum. 8)

First an emperor crowned, and now an omen...surely the gods smile down on RAT! :lol:
