Subj:     The Death Of Caesar (S530c)
          From: Joke-of-the-Day.com on 3/14/2007

 It's a little known fact that Julius Caesar did not die
 from stab wounds by Brutus, but, rather, was poisoned.
 During a sumptuous banquet which they both attended on
 that fateful Ides of March, Brutus slipped some poisonous
 hemlock leaves onto Julius' salad. (Thus making the world's
 first Caesar's salad - no, that's not the joke, wait for it.)

 When Julius slumped over into his salad, Brutus feigned
 concern and asked, "My dear friend Julius, how many hemlock
 leaves have you eaten?" To which Julius gasped in reply:

 "Ate two, Brute."

Subj:     'When Was Rome Built?' (S431b, S632)
          From: LABLaughs on 4/29/2005

 Marilyn, the teacher, asked her 5th grade history class,
 "When was Rome built?" and called on Timothy to answer
 first.

 "Rome was built at night." was his answer.

 "At night?" asked Mrs. Taylor, holding her ruler firmly
 in her boney-knuckled hands. "How ever did you get such
 an idea?"

 "Well," gulped the student, hoping his answer would satisfy
 her, "everyone knows Rome wasn't built in a day."
