Name something you do to propitiate the gods |
|
i take the hind quarters of fine oxen and wrap them in strips of fat and herbs, then roast it over a hot fire so that the aroma might please the gods.

3. I make an enormous pile of palm fronds and have a big bonfire.... |
|
in honor of the great-but-little-known god dog.
Do you know how difficult it is to find palm fronds in Chicago? They won't let me anywhere NEAR O'Hare anymore.

4. I honor the gift of life they have given me |
|
by living my life as well as I can, as fully as I can, and as happily as I can. I figure the only reason they created us is to live vicariously through us, so I'm giving them a life worth paying attention to.

14. back in my days in the piraeus |

we'd have a libation bearer on standby to ensure the appropriate levels of barley and cheese were maintained with the wine. they'd be plenty busy mixing that sucker all day.
