BC - Fri, 7/8/11

After David told Jane all that stuff about what a close connection they have and ended by saying he thinks he's falling in love with her, how many of you flashed to the scene in the tunnel in the Blues Brothers where John Belushi's character sweet-talks Carrie Fisher's character? As soon as David knew he had gotten to Jane, I expected him to drop her on the floor like a sack of potatoes.  I hope he realizes that Jane IS fully capable of whipping out a bazooka and using it.

Project Orpheus? That sounds a little like Proteus. I do SO hope Vanessa comes back!

LOL! How many of you immediately did what Ryan did when you heard "Orpheus"? I know I immediately went to Wikipedia for a quick synopsis (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orpheus). Here's a couple of paragraphs:

"Greeks of the Classical age venerated Orpheus as the greatest of all poets and musicians: it was said that while Hermes had invented the lyre, Orpheus perfected it. Poets such as Simonides of Ceos said that Orpheus' music and singing could charm the birds, fish and wild beasts, coax the trees and rocks into dance, and divert the course of rivers. He was one of the handful of Greek heroes to visit the Underworld and return; his music and song even had power over Hades.

Some sources credit Orpheus with further gifts to mankind: medicine, which is more usually under the aegis of Aesculapius; writing, which is usually credited to Cadmus and agriculture, where Orpheus assumes the Eleusinian role of Triptolemus, giver of Demeter's knowledge to mankind. Orpheus was an augur and seer; practiced magical arts, especially astrology, founded cults to Apollo and Dionysus and prescribed the mystery rites preserved in Orphic texts. In addition, Pindar and Apollonius of Rhodes place Orpheus as the harpist and companion of Jason and the Argonauts. Orpheus had a brother named Linus who went to Thebes and became a Theban."


I'm particularly interested in the part about the brother named Linus who went to Thebes and became a Theban. Is Thebes anything like Las Vegas?

Now Amanda has an std (HPV). It's about TIME someone in PV got one. I expected Tad The Cad to get all kinds of STDs way back in the day.

Jane begs Jack to make love to her. She's had a taste of David and now she wants more sex, but David artfully kicked her out. Jack had BETTER be able to tell that that is not Erica! One night of sex may pop a 63-yr-old cherry, but it hardly makes up for a lifetime of virginity when it comes to experience and, um, elasticity.
