Of philosophy, Tyler, and the requisite Epiphyte

ArethusaArethusa Universal Cathode
in Babylon 5
Hey, all; I've been lurking, from time to time, though even that was sporatic. For those that remember, I was Pyremancer, a world or so back. Life, for the past year or so, has been rather... interesting, for me. It gets to be rather messy, to say the least, and involves a lot of anarchy, quotes ffrom Palahniuk and Milton, alike, and some rather odd philosphical awakenings. As I said: messy. Philosophy's become a dangerous tool, and thinking seems to cut both ways; a bit too much, for my tastes, as it turns out. [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/smile.gif[/img] I'll try and post when I'm not out, busy having epiphytic, life changing events. It's been too long, and I'm glad to be back.

    No, I'll be fine with this one; it's a whole new me! Or something... [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/biggrin.gif[/img] One day, I hope, someone'll pick up on the Arethusa reference, but we'll wait for now. [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/vsml.gif[/img]

    Oh, by the way: while I was gone, I did get a chance to watch the entire series on scifi (a marked improvement over having seen 13 episodes out of the whole series). SiL is still my favorite. [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/biggrin.gif[/img]

    Not that Arethusa, and neither Shelley's.

    He seems to have been escaping regularly recently. We didn't see him for months, then suddenly he injects comments (if they can be called that) into random topics at random intervals. 'Tis good to see. [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/smile.gif[/img]

    If these whoremoles turn out to be this much of a liability, we may have to shut down the gaglaxy for repairs.

    According to Greek Mythos, Arethusa was a water nymph that was turn into a fountain or spring.

    [quote]She (Diana)rescued the maiden, Arethusa, from the pursuit of Alpheus, the river god, who was relentlessly pursuing her by changing her into a spring of water that flowed through a tunnel under the sea from Greece to Sicily. Arethusa plunged down and emerged in Ortygia, where the well she sprang up from is considered holy ground to Artemis.[/quote]

    Is that close?

    Yes... and no. It is the original derivation of Arethusa, but it doesn't fit the clue I gave earlier, which is really what I was referring to.

    Most people ar also surprised that I took Arethusa and I'm a guy (the ones that know their mythology, that is); even more surprised, really, that I don't have a problem with it.
