"TIL in 2006, a mother and son were convicted of trying to extort money from Cracker Barrel by claiming they found a dead mouse in her soup. Charges were filed after a necropsy showed the mouse had no soup in its lungs and had not been cooked, signs that it was dropped into the soup after its death"

#16 It was used as a munitions dump during the Ottoman occupation, and a Venetian bomb struck it during the siege of the Acropolis in 1687. Stupid Turks. Also, stupid Venetians.

Calpurnia, We see present-day Palestinians employing the same tactic in Gaza.
As for the "stupid" Venetians, perhaps back in 1687 they considered it more important to drive the Muslims out of Greece than protect Athena's temple.

#15 - I spent a day in Paris in 1986 and some parts of the city and the entire subway smelled like a filthy toilette.
