Just Like That

And just like that I'm in Barnes & Noble last night and I see a new book called Decline and Fall. It's about the downward spiral that Europe finds itself in today after hundreds of years of ruling the entire world. So now I will have to find a new working title that I can change at a later date. "The Roman Story" just doesn't do it for me but that might have to stick for a while.

If you're penning a tale of the decline and fall of the Roman Empire you might want to consult the original master

'The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire' by Edward Gibbon. This authoritative tome has, and still continues to, influence many a classical scholar. You might care to join their ranks.

How about 'When Darkness Falls' as a working title?

Decline and Fall...hm, that sounds a great deal like Slippin' and Slidin' :P

Just my two cents worth, and hey Canadian money is worth more than it used to be.

Slippin' and Slidin'... maybe not. Too much like that 70's song Slip Slidin' Away.
