"Just what pray tell is a Juda Ben Dash Hur anyway,
and who would pay to see him race?"

Prof. Nordwald, staff writer
Construction of a new sewer near the Palatine Hill in Rome has been halted by the discovery of a number of small earthen jars containing fragmented waxed tablets. The interruption of underground construction projects in Rome by archaelogical finds is a common inconvience to modern Romans, but this particular cache, apparently part of the file morgue of the long-defunct Imperial Speed Stadium News, may be of particular interest to LemmingNet readers.
A selection is presented here.

Dateline Rome: The second year of the reign of Gaius Claudius Nero Drusus Germanicus

Is it just me, or is the air a little cleaner at the Circus Maximus these days? Sure, the crowds are down for practice days, but the racing couldn't be better. I have been able to get excellent seats every day, and I can take my family without all the drunks, whores, cutpurses and other ruffians ruining our day. This is the way Roman sporting entertainment was meant to be. The way I remember it before those foreigners ruined it. If it wasn't for Antonius Minimus and his pure vision of the way things were meant to be, I'd still be struggling my way through crowds to see a bunch of foreigners racing at this, the most Roman of racetracks. Roman Chariot Racing, is and should be just that. After all we invented the Roman Chariot and we were the first Romans to race them. When I go to the track, I don't want to see supposed Judean princes driving Egyptian chariots pulled by little whinnying Arab horses, that were leased on an exclusive contract. It is common knowledge that those guys only win because they use trick feedbags. I want to see Roman gladiators driving Roman chariots pulled by Roman horses. Horses any Roman can buy in the market place at a fair price. In brief, I want to see them run chariots just like the one I wash for my master. I mean, just what pray tell is a Juda Ben Dash Hur anyway, and who would pay to see him race?
