Mostly, it's because I find this absolutely hilarious. Because it is. It's the story of Aeneas told on Facebook. Thanks to these folks who pointed it out to me.

About Me
- LatinTeacher
- I grew up in Metairie, LA and lived in actual New Orleans for 12 years. The day that I turned 30, I moved to New Jersey and then to Easton, PA 4 years ago. As luck would have it, I was in New Orleans when Katrina approached and evacuated to Jackson, MS. Other than that, I am a Latin and history teacher at a small, independent school in NJ. I miss New Orleans a lot, think about it all the time, and try to go there whenever the work schedule allows.
