I don't usually get my morning coffee at Starbuck's, but I went there this morning. I ordered a Caffe Mocha. When asked for my name, on a whim I said "Spartacus." When they called me to pick up the Mocha, I stood up and said out loud, "I am Spartacus." People turned to look at me. Then an old man in the back stood up and said, "No. I am Spartacus." Then, one by one, everyone in the shop stood up and yelled, "I am Spartacus!"
As Hannibal would say, "I love it when a plan comes together." |

I’m Spartacus, and so is my wife!

Wondering how many of the younger generation understand the reference.

I met Sparticus, he was getting coffee... he was a little "full of himself".
The coffee was OK, I came for the wi-fi but it was hard to focus on the deviance on my screen with everyone saying they too were Spartacus. I doubt that some of them were even Spartacus.
Magic is doing improbable things with odd items that, under normal circumstances, would be unnessecary and quite often undesirable.

Multiplying Spartacuses (or would that be Spartaci?)
It could be a new trick...
