Down She Goes
Fark linked up news of the discovery of an ancient Greek shipwreck:
The remains of an ancient Greek cargo ship that sank more than 2,300 years ago have been uncovered with a deep-sea robot, archaeologists announced Thursday.The ship was carrying hundreds of ceramic jars of wine and olive oil and went down off Chios and the Oinoussai islands in the eastern Aegean Sea sometime around 350 B.C.
Which would put it right around the time of the birth of Alexander the Great.
Odd moment in history - I've got tunes going in the background - Iron Maiden's Alexander the Great. Then I flip PC's and read this. Two Alex the Pretty Damn Good things at the same time? Is the fabric of space-time ripping apart? Will the New Orleans Saints now end up being a good team? Will Joshua vote Republican? Will Ellen or Amber get a pet that isn't "scratch and dent"?
Everything we know is about to change!
