I barely remember it, only that it was the most disturbing Greek thing I'd read since Aphrodite sprung from her father's balls.  _________________ You can never have too much Baklava.

I thought Athena springing out of her father's head was pretty weird too. Although that was pretty tame compared to a lot of the other gods' origins |

Dionysus was born from Zeus's thigh. Why he put him in his thigh - I'll never know.  _________________

What guy is going to get his THIGHS close to a woman if they don't like each other? Arms on the other hand... _________________ You can never have too much Baklava.

I know my dad told me these stories to ME as a small child, I don't see why they didn't get emotional scars too.  |

Knowing my dad, probably. Half the time, I think he was talking to himself and telling himself a story, while I just sat in the bed with the covers up to my nose in shock  |
