Barry, I couldn't think of another Hun. I'm going to bet not many people can name another Hun without Googling it? Yup, I guess that makes Attila, most everyone's favorite Hun....

I don't even really know what a Hun is, but I think if I met one, we would get along just fine.

“I’m in love, I’m in love
With Attila the Hun
Attila the Hun, Attila the Hun
Though he’ll pillage a village and kill everyone
I still love Attila the Hun”

My favorite is the Vatican Rag, pure genius. Such gems as

2 4 6 8
Time to transubstantiate

Ave Maria
Gee it's good to see ya

Barry, I must say you have aged well but the role of Hans Solo was filled years ago, and what does Chewbacca collect? Star Wars cards, I expect. And contrary to rumors Atilla did not sack Rome. That was the job of another Visigoth. Interested Net 54'ers will have to look up the answer. Asking Siri doesn't count. Remember, I taught history at Norman Thomas High on the East Side of Manhattan.

Default Why hire

I never bid in a Mastro auction so not a real victim but I still can’t understand why a big, diverse, international auction house would make such a hire. Aren’t they bonded and insured, which should have a negative impact on those cost. Don’t they have any type of mentoring program where they can hire a suitable, non convicted candidate from within?
