on a lighter note...

If you ever get a chance to go to Milan, find your way to Santa Maria delle Grazie - the old monastery/nunnery where da Vinci painted this.

It's faded, but still quite impressive. It's about 30 feet wide and 15 feet tall. When you see it in full size, you'll realize Dan Brown was right about one thing: there is *no way* that the person to the right of Jesus is a dude, though it has always been reported to be St. John the Devine.

A guy who could draw a perfect circle with either hand, who could write in mirrored script, and a whole host of other things, would not have had a "woopsie" and made a dude look like a chick. Zero chance.

Jesus and most of the Apostles appear to be Caucasian in The Last Supper, as opposed to Semitic/Abrahamic.

Michelangelo depicts an uncircumcised David in his statue. (Yes I realize there is some minor controversy regarding this) The original David would have been circumcised.

The Renaissance was an amazing time filled with amazing artists but sometimes their knowledge of subject mater 1,500-2,500 years and 1,000 miles removed, proved lacking.

Good morning,
Did you hunt w Leeuwkop at their ranch or in Zimbabwe? The ranch looks awesome, but I'll be in Zimbabwe for buffalo and whatever else we dig up.
What did you hunt for?
Vaccines?
What rifle did you use?
I feel like I need a good cotton safari shirt and an ammo belt to make the hunt feel right!
How often did you shoot prior to going?
Did you use sticks for shooting practice?
