I've been thinking about Greece renting out her historic and sacred sights...one wonders where this might end. Maybe Italy will rent out her Rome Colosseum as a Christian martyr or gladiator theme park....and Britain could rent out the Tower of London for Disney-style mock beheadings and executions? Any other suggestions?

The Execution of Lady Jane Grey (right) is an oil painting by Paul Delaroche, 1833, currently housed in the National Gallery in London. She was also known as the Nine Days Queen. An English noblewoman and Queen of England from 10 to 19 July 1553 who was subsequently executed at the Tower of London.
