Here goes:

In Greek mythology, Chariclo was a nymph. With Chiron, she was the mother of Ocyrhoe.

She was also the mother of Tiresias, who was struck blind by Athena. She begged Athena to give him sight back, but the goddess could not undo her curse. She gave him the gift of prophecy instead.

Got to admit I was thinking the same thing as Phil but didn't want to get Josie going again.

Not boring - just personalized! Atleast you don't have to be embarrassed about it when people ask (- like myself)

By the way - my explanation for my SN was an encyclopedia definition - not my own.

Crebain & Joel - I knew you guys wouldn't let me down!

Send a message via MSN to Tiki
Tiki is my oldest cockatiel. I have used this handle for several years on various travel forums-if Tiki has been taken, then I use Tiki in Oz. And I am an island girl at heart.
