I love it when people like my descriptions.

Our grade seven teacher was a total computer nerd. (But very cool.) He brought in Macs from home and we used them for all our projects. I don't think we did any big projects that didn't involve movies and music. Anyway, he always found the weirdest clips and movies online for us. One of them was the Llama song. The other classes complained to the teacher about the noise later. WE couldn't stop laughing.

Oh, and BTW Lamia was a queen in ancient Greece. Either she had an affair with Zeus or she dishonoured Hera in some other way. In any case, hera turned her into an insane cannibal. She ate her own children but was never satisfied so she roamed the country, stealing children and eating them.
I say night I'm living in the forest of my dream,
I know the night is not as it would seem,
I must believe in something,
So I'll make myself believe it,
That this night will never go.

Well, that was basically the only reason Hera got mad.

Save for a few occasions.

Sometimes she "cursed" people when they forgot to honour her in a sacrifice.

I wasn't sure what to call it, it's not really cursing people, it's killing them, making them ill, or bringing insanity upon them.

Well, yes.

But I was generalizing.

I read a horror story by John Bellairs with a lamia. Some sort of big vampire thing that could control minds, and its form was made of the stuff around it, like cloth or paper. I don't think it's the same one. :lol2:

U ought to try reading Percy Jackson if u r interested in Ancient Greek. It's all abt it. It's a pity only few have heard of it.

Lamia & Lupin. Dansariki wanted to know why all werewolves started with a L, but I know only 2 such.

What? Starting with an L. Anyway, it's not Lupin. More correctly. Remus.
