Sometimes I think I must be The Missing Link, or at least the one who misses so many links. I have searched Cybele often and never found such a nice site as this (now I have to apologize for the many times I mispronounced her name when I talked to myslelf - apologies offered to Cu BELL ay).

Not enough of the visitors here read the postings, just going to the stories where you would not believe how many hits. The type of hit-ons that CB actually enjoys. In about two months and about 20 stories, my total hits are likely to top 100,000 sometime today.

Anyhow, here's one who thanks A and all the others who scan for all the stuff we should know, and then share their knowledge.

Also, CB would have told the boards her birth day if not for the need to also give the year . Does vanity affect one's sanity? Will Jeter win the Gold Glove, as the NY Times is suggesting today?

Do I talk too much?

So long, CB.

P.S. (I do talk too much):

Here are the revised Ten Commandments from the cited sight, and they seem pretty good:

Thou shalt not rape nor assault another person.

Thou shalt not molest a child, nor through inaction allow another to do so.

Thou shalt not strike thy lover in anger, nor through inaction allow thy lover to come to harm.

Thou shalt not beat, nor strike thy child in anger, nor cause thy children harm.

Thou shalt not take another human being to be thy slave.

Thou shalt not murder, nor stand idly and witness murder.

Thou shalt not steal, nor cause damage to someone else's property.

Thou shalt not lie and in so doing cause harm to another.

Thou shalt respect the right of others to have opinions, ideas, and thoughts that are at odds with your own.

Thou shalt keep thy beliefs private , not seeking to convert others, or force thy beliefs on any other, including your own children.

It was recently discoverd that these preistesses could be found as far away as England, where they recently excavated a grave belonging to one in the southern areas of the country. Of course, one of the central tenents of the Druidic faith is that there is room for all opinions in the field of theology.

You might like to know that the worship / priesthood of Attis feature regularly & centrally in my new saga, 'Nero'. For example, his predecessor , the Emperor Claudius, actually outraged the Order by deposing the eunuch High Priest in Rome & replacing him with a fully functional Roman Senator. This is referred to in detail in the forthcoming chapter 2.

P:

Thanks for the advance notice. Great work with your stories, the boards, the archives, eunuch etc., etc.
