You will be processed and punished for that pun, but other than that I welcome your excllent comment, BV.
At one point I went by the handle Belisarius and was quite the Byzantine-head. I find particularly fascinating the incident of the Nike Riots mentioned in the story here, when the Emperor's spokesman addressed the entire Green Section of the crowd and they answered him back in chorus. I imagine it a bit like the conversation between Brian and the crowd in Life of Brian.
In any case it didn't work out, so the Emperor ordered Belisarius to seal the doors and murder everyone inside the Hippodrome. Day at the races, eh?
When I was young they had a very informative book called 101 Uses of a Dead Cat which was described as "the Charles Addams of ailurophobia" - a cat hater's special fun comic, in other words. Full of fun ideas.
A Purr-fect execution of a prompt! Would like to see you expand on some Byzantium history. Orhan Pamuk has a great Book about Istanbul.

I love the narrator in this one. Great choice there. Really brings an energy to the story. 👏
Thanks WP3, appreciate your thoughts as ever.
do they still make tennis racket's outta cat gut? Probably not. But some enterprising hipster in Turkland could.

Interesting. I love my cat. Though, after she’s gone, I’d take her somewhere and maybe make a memorial fur cap or something. That would be nice.
