Pecunia non olet

Apparently someone in the States is going round setting fire to portable toilets. A reward of $5,000 has been offered for the capture of the arse-onist.




The title? Vespasian imposed a tax on urine collected from the public loos in ancient Rome where it was collected and used for cleaning and dyeing togas. His son, Titus, complained about the source of the money. Vespasian took some money, sniffed it and said "pecunia non olet "

Money does not smell .....
