Hey! Remember when I predicted
THE ILIAD was
going to have an owl in it? And I put it on
my big list of books with owls in them before I had confirmation? Remember how you called it the ultimate act of hubris? Remember how you said nothing had ever been more hubristic in all of history than the time I said THE ILIAD was definitely going to have
an owl in it? Well, well, well. I'm so sorry to disappoint you.
Zeus "sat there hidden in the
fir tree's branches, just like
a screeching owl."
