Mythological...

One of the major themes that comes up in Mythology is that of Rape. They don't mean this so much as the actually modern act as the traditional sense of the word: take. To rape somebody in myth is to take them elsewhere (and, we must admit, possibly sleep with them). The Rape of Ganymede, for example - take as a beautiful young boy to become a cupbearer for the gods. You could work in Zeus and the homosexuality angle if you want, but really, its stretching the myth a little.
So, I had a mythology exam today. And let me tell you, Professor McDonald raped the question directly from the text book's website. I did the online quizes three times for the fun of it. So, Professor McDonald, thank you for a wonderful mid-term examination.

In other news, my sister is doing well. I hear tell she's relaxing and doig some healing in wiarton, and if anybody who knows her and wants to send some best wished type messages I can pass them along for you this weekend or you can phone her there.
