The Hungarian Ornithology Society has these collectible pins they sell for donations at various locations around Hungary. There are more than 300 species included, but the catch is, they don't tell you which pins you can find at which locations.
Today I went on a scavenger hunt and managed to find a care at the fourth try 😄 Yay!
I did a half-hour long telling of the myth of Palamedes at Floralia today. It still felt rushed. I'm going to have to turn this into a full hour show. I think Palamedes deserves it.
I am finishing up my mythology manuscript this week, and it is really hard to let this one go... I had too much fun with the stories. I found a lot of forgotten Greek and Roman myths or myth variants that surprised and delighted me. It was like a huge puzzle to play with.
@TarkabarkaHolgy The thing about Bandit is in the first season he was competent, a caregiver, all that stuff that gave the show a good reputation. But later he became more and more like the stereotype, beside his hyper-competent ultimate authority stereotype Mum. He even picked up a weight problem, which is weird because they're all identical rectangles. But the reputation remained.
Just read an article about a theory that the myth of Asclepius and the story of Alcestis used to make one continuous epic. Which kinda make perfect sense.
The story starts with Asclepius killed by the gods for trying to bring back the dead with medicine.
And it ends with a drunk Heracles bringing back the dead by beating up the god of Death and breaking some of his ribs.
Resurrection. Best accomplished with booze and wrestling.
@TarkabarkaHolgy The challenge was fun, but also taxing. I hardly found time to visit other blogs, but then I usually wrote the post just the evening before posting. I am not sure I will participate again next year, unless I have a really good theme beforehand.
No officer I swear the Tasmanian Devil and Stitch didn't have a litter of feral puppies in our apartment, you see tis just that the child wants a sip of water before sleep
