Yoshirappers! Tonight We Dine in Hell!
For those who have some free time this weekend, you may want to check out the leather thonged, oiled up, manflesh epic: 300. A retelling of the battle of Thermopylae in classic comic book style, 300 is practically guaranteed to lead ancient Greece and all that that implies to box office victory.
On a related note, the New York Times reminds us that, sometimes, a Spartan is just a Spartan. (Caution: some reading required)

Mike, I think you are taking this alternative lifestyle bit too far.
Now that I realize this movie is not about the Chrysler 300 sedan, I'm more interested.
And now that I read about the fight to defend civilization from the hordes of Persians, I'm even more interested. But I thought the Spartans dealt a fatal blow to civilization when they knocked off the democracy loving Athenians... so I'm all confused now.
As for alternative lifestyles, I thought that the Spartans were gay... or was that the Spanish Armada? Geez, my education was useless if I don't even know which side was gay.
Oh, and one more thing. I have already dined in hell.
Did you have the calamari? How was it?
Well, I had the prime rib sandwich and it was the worst ever. I should have gone with the veal. Just like the T-shirt says, "Meat is murder. Tasty, tasty murder."
