Sarcasm by the teaspoon, tablespoon, and shotglass. Social Engineering through words, tainted truth, sarcasm, chaos and cacophony. A pandemonium of pandering, pondering and parading of thoughts and ideas. A soapbox pulpit.

The Large Rock
As I put on my shoes in the morning and get ready for work I realize that Sisyphus and I have a lot in common.
i absolutely love greek myths, actually all myths (am just exposed more to greek myths), because of the simplicity of it all.
i also like the way the greeks saw their dieties -- they are just like humans with all our trappings -- this makes it so much simpler to try to predict the vengefulness of the gods. :-)
I like my Myths-- But, I have a hard time sorting them out through the different versions. It is strange how characters change from version to version. It is also hard to deal with characters as the change from hero to enemy depending on the myth.

It is hard to keep it all straight.
