Dante Twitters His Way to Paradise

Dante on Twitter

A few days ago we gave a shout-out to Julius Caesar, who’s Twittering his way across the Roman Empire.  Thus, upon receiving the news that Dante’s at it too, we felt it necessary to provide equal time and space to the famed medieval meanderer.

Mr. Epic Poem is sharing some great stuff (but no spoilers here) and we wonder if Twitter is the new Spark Notes for the Inferno, the Purgatorio, and the Paradiso?

If so, it’s definitely got a rival in Facebook, where Vergil’s hard at work summing up The Aeneid  in status reports and super pokes.

Lipstick Lambs

Candy Lambs with Lipstick in Rome, Italy

Buona Pasqua a tutti!  We’ve got one last Easter candy shot for you this year.  On a stroll through Trastevere, Susan Sanders spotted this window display of candy lambs.  They make an appearance each and every Easter, but she found herself particulary charmed by the heavily lipsticked one reclining near the front of the window.

Buona Pasqua a tutti!
