    Driving to the airport

    I am so tired of driving to the airport. My friend has had to go to the airport for business a couple times in the last month and I have taken him. I feel like I spend my whole day waiting though and it kind of drives me bonkers.

    How do they start?

    I think some are oral stories that get passed down and eventually taken for truth. Sometimes I think they have some kernel of truth but then they get added to like a game of telephone.

    Tired of charlie sheen?

    That is really, really sad. I can't believe people would waste money in this poor economy to see that. What is he going to do? He isn't a stand up comedian, he isn't a musician. It's a violent torpedo of something but it doesn't smell like truth to me!

    Roman gods family tree

    Wow, that is a pretty comprehensive list of the major deities of Roman mythology.It is kind of like Roman Gods for dummies isn't it? It was a good refresher though.

    Blogs

    It is a lot of work but I guess that's why bloggers choose to write about things that interest them. I have started and walked away from about 10 blogs over the years because I just didn't have time to keep up with it.

    Bullying

    I think bullying in schools really is a problem, not one that is hyped up. I just watched a hidden camera special on it the other day as a matter of fact. They had a group of kids some actors and some not doing activities such as sports or shopping. One of the actors would play the victim and a...

    Third eye/sixth sense?

    I do sometimes get the feeling that I am not alone or hear something that isn't there, but I have never actually seen a ghost. I also have very vivid dreams of true events, but they are usually within my own life, not a strangers. The intense deja vu feeling when the dream ends up happening word...

    Ghost sickness

    I have heard about this and I think there was even a movie that talked about it, though the name escapes me at the moment. I think scientists try to explain it rationally, but ghosts and other supernatural beings do not have a rational explanation, do they?

    Tired of charlie sheen?

    I for one could care less what Charlie Sheen says or does, but I am tired of hearing about it every single second of every day. Can they not find anything or anyone more newsworthy than that?

    Cockroach eggs on envelope seals

    I remember that, but I try not to lick any envelopes if I can help it just because they taste awful. I buy the ones that are self-adhesive. That story does have the gross out factor though. I mean could you imagine finding out you had cockroaches growing in your tongue? Gross!

    Prometheus

    I think Prometheus is a hero for daring the wrath of the gods to help mankind. I do not envy him the punishment he received for it though. Having your liver eaten out of your body every day by an eagle does not sound like a very good time.

    Crazy gas prices

    Diana that is terrible, I am sure we will be there soon. We went from around $2.80 to $3.55 in 1 day last week. It is creeping up every day from there. It will raise the cost of everything which we really can't afford at this point since a lot of people are still unemployed or underemployed.

    Genealogy

    Have you ever researched your own family history? I did and was able to trace my lineage all the way back to the Mayflower. It was pretty interesting.

    How were you introduced to mythology?

    We are all told fairytales as children of course and as a high school student I was taught Greek mythology in history classes. I was hooked right away and have been digging for information ever since.

    Online stalkers

    I have had someone on a forum "stalk" me and as with Calliope post to all my post with nasty responses. I simply chose to be the bigger person and walk away from the forum. I was sad about it, but I am an adult and I am not going to get into a forum war with someone who chooses not too.

    Pregnancy myths/old wives tales

    I don't think any of them are an accurate way of predicting what you are having. I am not sure where they came from but who knows how a lot of those stories got started

    Using popular music to teach history?

    Hey I say any way you can get kids to listen to history or other educational things is good. I think these teachers are on a good path.

    Your favorite type of mythology

    I like it all, but then again my brain is a sponge for information I may never need again. I love museums and history and mythology just ties all that stuff together.

    Where would you go?

    Legend, you certainly are well traveled. Have you done a lot of traveling in the US or mostly abroad? It was probably a lot of fun anyway.

    Book of the dead

    As interesting as the translations would be, I would really like to get my hands on the original. Full color, poster quality photos are all well and good but they aren't the real thing now are they? ;)
