Self-education is great, really. And yeah, French Revolution was crazy. But extremely interesting. I once took a drive from Paris down to the Riviera to follow the path of the Revolution.
Basically stopped by locations as the 'news' got to each town, and figured out what happened historically when the French at the time learned what was happening in Paris.
Update on the Louvre Robbery: there are four more being arrested today, unfortunately there's no trace of the jewels being found since October 19th according to BBC News.
You know, there was a question from one of my fb pages I follow that asked, if time travel were possible what event would you visit in history and change. My response was that I'd stop or make sure Hitler were never born. And then I began thinking about it. And thought....how would that change ACME? Would we still be Anerican and international? Would we still have The united nations and NATO?
