I'm a history buff and I've got Greek in me. Let's hear it. :)

Let's see. Back in the days when Athens was just a little city, the rich and powerful took over for many, many years. Then a guy named Clysteines [I can't spell his name that well] seized power after the common people revolted. He devised a way of allowing the people to elect their own rulers: everyone would be allowed to vote [except for women and slaves, unfortunately] with a white pebble for yes and a black pebble for no. Later on, the Athenian economy was born when they began exporting olives and olive oil to other places, and the giant jars were made to hold all of the produce. The pot makers began decorating the pots and jars, and Greek art was born.

Interesting. Democracy started with the Greeks. When the Persians invaded, it could have been wiped just as it was getting started, but the Greeks fought back. . . and won. 8)

I like rain, but mostly when I'm indoors.
Are you excited for Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth coming out next year, Sailor Johnny?

Not too much just trying to keep cool while it's fairly warm outside as well, look for ways to help me transition from one career to another.

What's your career like? I'm planning to get a part-time job at a library next year.

Truthfully, :oops: :oops: I tend to work within the kitchen at a group home for persons with various neurological difficulties though, I'd like to work in a more quiet setting.

I like cooking, and my dad used to work in a group home, so there's no need to be embarrassed.
