"While the Colosseum stands, Rome shall stand; when the Colosseum falls, Rome shall fall; when Rome falls, the world shall fall.' - Anglo-Saxon Pilgrim Prophecy.
Wow, what a prophecy. Judging from what i see with my bare eyes, the world is on the verge of apocalypse then? Judgment day is coming! run for your freaking life. Bullshit , absolutely bullshit. If the best benchmark in comparing the world with the fall of Colosseum then i might as well move to Mars now. I got to admit , the first time i lay my eyes on the Colosseum, it was a joy to behold. Once my freaking mind got crystal clear, Colosseum is the main venue for Venatio ( animal slaying). Imagine this, panthers and leopards got slain inside this mega structure. Its like dog fighting in our moment of life. Cruel you may say, annoying you may think, but that is what made Colosseum such a Colossus structure for many people. Knowing this, for those bastards who organized dog fighting competition, please do polish your dog cage, your cage will be nominated as the wonders of the world in the next century, seriously you got a good chance.
When there is a landmark, there's business opportunity. So judging from the many landmarks located in Rome, surely business opportunities are a lot. Students! prepare your BCG matrix and SWOT analysis please, identify cash cows and water-fish. There are a lot of self-proprietor and businessmen around This eternal city. Roman warriors suddenly woke up from their ashes and starting to look for people to take pictures for 5- 10 Euros. I guess they are going to take the money back into their grave. Amen!
Trevi fountain, certainly a cash cow. Pennies and Cents are thrown into the fountain to ensure a person's return to Rome. Wow! Really mom? We are going back to Rome? Really, Really??? Good luck in that , unless you won a lottery or jackpot, let me guess, an air ticket to Rome will cost you around few hundred Euros maybe?. See the irony? Throw a coin into the fountain and spend few hundred bucks to go back. Nice, real nice.
Oh crap! . Where are the pictures for the Vatican?. No? The Pope is going to kill me. Oops. Can't fool around with one of the most powerful man in the world. Basically, the Vatican is too big to be able to fit into camera's screen.
St. Angelo Ca
I got to stop being such a commercial freak now. Theres a lot of places in Rome but i chose not to disclose so much. You got to go and see for yourself. Obviously. Lincoln signing off...
