Expensive Tomatoes – Worth the Price?

March 9, 2016

After being arrested by the Secret Service for throwing tomatoes at Donald Trump during a rally at the University of Iowa, 28-year-old Andrew Alemao plead guilty in a deal with prosecutors to pay a $65 fine and avoid a possible maximum sentence of 30 days in jail or a $625 fine.

Officers said they saw Alemao throw two tomatoes at Trump, though neither of them landed on their target.

These were undoubtedly the most expensive tomatoes Alemao has ever purchased, but something gives the feeling he thought it was well worth the price.

As an academic researcher and teacher of ancient and medieval history, I endeavor to give voice to the ideas and concepts from my studies and those of others and share them with those people seeking exposure to expert perspectives who may otherwise lack such direct access. I believe it is important that we open avenues of productive dialogue between experts and non-experts - both of whom I try to bring together here - in order to elevate the greater discussion of ideas among the engaged populace.

This website is our coffee table, and we invite you to join us - have a seat with your favorite cup of joe and see where the conversation leads.

On behalf of myself and the Brewminate team, welcome!
