Sorry, I know it's a bit late.

My credit card is in getting repaired. Can I borrow yours?

 

[DallasDad]

Wonder if they'll publish the boy porn, too? They have to have the world's largest collection....

 

[Rolfe]

That report is dated 31st March. So it isn't a spoof?

Rolfe.

The account will be used to reimburse losses by churches that have decalred bankruptcy to eliminate their obligation to pay court judgements in sexual abuse cases.

Ironic, no ?



Edit: Actually just read it to the end...

Age verification, credit card processing, and acount maintenance will be run by adult entertainment magnate Larry Flint.

Busted!

Another clue..

The collection includes tens of thousands of drawings, frescoes, engravings, artifacts, and ephemera dating from the Reniassance back to classical antiquity.

Frescoes ?

What is " classical antiquity " ?

I'm pretty sure it's a spoof, but "classical antiquity" simply means the period of Greece and Rome's cultural domination (as opposed to, say, the time of Babylonian or Persian empires).

Also notice the web address. Clever.

Yup. Also known as "Classical Civilization." Then you had the Dark Ages when people went back to being barbarians, followed by the Renaissance when they rediscovered civilization.
