Daddy, where do you live?

Watched the first couple episodes of Rome last night. Looks like a generally pretty solid show, though I notice that being a Roman seems to involve having a lot of noisy, semi-public sex. Anyway, I was particularly struck by the scene where Lucius Verones gets home after 8 years away with the legions and his kids don't recognize him. Times sure have changed now that we don't have the Roman Legions. These days when that happens it usually means you've made United Global Services..
