They don’t build ‘em like they used to.

Lowest bidder, only lasted 2,000 years.

Global warming no doubt.

[DaxtonBrown]

That will buff right out.

It actually isn’t catastrophic. Just use Roman mortar.

The Emperor Hadrian was no friend of Israel. Perhaps its for the best that Israel be spared the indignity of using his aqueduct.

I love the ruins in Caesaria. The Amphitheater, the Pilate Stone, the Aqueduct, and the Castle are all awesome.

I’m sorry this happened.

How do you ruin a ruin?

I was nowhere near there, and nobody saw me do it, and it was some other guy anyway.

That Hadrian dude built it and ruled as Emperor at the same time. If he spent more time building and less time ruling it would probably not have collapsed.

this is a gorgeous spot and hope they will reconstruct this portion - and perhaps doublecheck other sections. talk about a major engineering feat - those Romans!

[chrisser]

Did it have the 2000 year warranty?

[Adder]

Quick!
Get Dr. Scholls on the phone!

[suthener]

That was back when humans could build a structure that would last thousands of years. This is now:

We can’t successfully build a kayak launch.

He who builds his aqueduct on sand…

[Jeff Chandler]

Typical crappy Italian engineering.

[Larry Lucido]

REG: Yeah. All right, Stan. Don’t labour the point. And what have they ever given us in return?!

XERXES: The aqueduct?

REG: What?

XERXES: The aqueduct.

REG: Oh. Yeah, yeah. They did give us that. Uh, that’s true. Yeah.

COMMANDO #3: And the sanitation.

LORETTA: Oh, yeah, the sanitation, Reg. Remember what the city used to be like?

REG: Yeah. All right. I’ll grant you the aqueduct and the sanitation are two things that the Romans have done.

MATTHIAS: And the roads.

REG: Well, yeah. Obviously the roads. I mean, the roads go without saying, don’t they? But apart from the sanitation, the aqueduct, and the roads—
