Today in my protohistoric cities class, the article we were discussing had a digression about the old Babylonian temple prostitution story, and it made me think of
musesfool. Hi, Vic!
(It really isn't a bad class, but I wish I had realized before I signed up for it that it was more archaeological and less, I don't know, historical. Because archaeology is kind of boring when you get down to details. Ur and Uruk! The dawn of civilization! Sumer and cuneiform and ziggerats and religion and politics and so on! All much more interesting than the seventy page chapters about the difference between a chiefdom, a state, and a city-state!)
I have started season three of Alias and have also formed a new theory regarding the show. The theory is basically that the combination of Victor Garber and Lena Olin's hotness, talent and badassery is strong enough that seeing them onscreen is powerful enough to cause Contagious Short-Term Bisexuality in even the most relatively single-sex oriented. Lesbianism cannot resist Jack Bristow, nor can heterosexuality resist the siren call of Irinia Derevko!
Admittedly, my sample pool for this theory only consists of me and
fox1013, but I think that is strong enough to let it apply to the vast majority of cool people.
(Probably not boys, though. I have a hard time imagining straight boys admitting that they'd do Victor Garber, even though WE ALL KNOW IT IS TRUE DON'T FRONT. Bah, straight boys.)
Regarding last night's Grey's Anatomy:
