"Already long ago, from when we sold our vote to no man, the People have abdicated our duties; for the People who once upon a time handed out military command, high civil office, legions — everything, now restrains itself and anxiously hopes for just two things: bread and circuses" ~Juvenal

Pretty cool slideshow.  I especially like the picture of the "Okies" car.  My dad has several license plates that look exactly the same nailed to the wall in the barn back home.
