Another way to possibly improve the website could be with the addition of Roman themed cartoons and poems set to the music of popular songs.

With perhaps a competition for best cartoon or poem of the month? The prizes could be RAT teeshirts or mugs? Alternatively, the winning cartoon or poem could be the design for a new teeshirt or mug?

Do we have any members who possess these talents amongst our growing numbers?

I feel that I should point out that I have absolutely no talents whatsoever apart from coming up with dumb ideas.

What do you think?

Ave Optio equitum,

Do you mean a talent for coming up with "dumb ideas"?

I think that if they awarded PhDs for the above, then I would have several.

Do you have a resume of your own "dumb ideas"?

The hard part is getting them to eat from a spoon...and the sheer size of those suckers...
