I can't look at Passus Chronus without thinking "Pass the chronic." Another popular pastime.<P>By the way, what was the name originally?<P>------------------
I'm so sane it's driving me crazy.

I'm reminded of a comic I was told about...it was either <i>Heavy Metal</i> or some other X-rated comic...there was this tribe of barbarians and they did a sacrifice ritual. The punchline went, "Now, you are no longer heathens--you're PAGANS!"<P>ARRGH! Now I'm thinking of an ugly scene in which the awakened godling confronts Shanna because he knows she claimed to be Athena's daughter!

No, the one I'm worried about is Rikk, and what's gonna happen when he refuses to be the mouthpiece for the Demigod of Hobbies ('Passus Chronos'? Good joke, rotten Latin/Greek...).

No, 'Passus Chronus' is a GREAT name! I think. Isn't Passus the third-person perfect of the deponent verb patior, I suffer? Thus they 23-siders have awakened the god of SUFFERING TIME. Or maybe TIME, HE SUFFERS. Which is as nice a foreshadowing as our newly reborn Alisin could possibly hope for.<P>And is that really the David statue with all that junk on it come to life? Poor Rikk... first Dave, now a naked statue with a famous dongle with his face.<P>~f

Actually, it looked to me to be Perseus (as in Trash--er, <i>Clash of the Titans</i>, with the head of the Gorgon in his left hand.

Actually, Greg is showing remarkable restraint here. I'm sure he's reeling at the blasphemy... not religious, but linguistic. But every once in a while, I get stuck and can't show him the final revisions before deadline...
