If you happened upon something truly amazing, would you share it? Or would you keep it to yourself, indulging in the pleasures it gave you until you got your fill. Can someone fully enjoy something if they do not share with another – or others? I’m not asking you to give your special something away, I’m…
Yesterday, across the United States, people everywhere were celebrating a right and privilege we as a people declared on July 4th 1776. The war that followed to obtain that freedom would continue to play on for another seven years. There is another freedom that we should be celebrating as well. The freedom of creativity. It’s a…
Welcome to Thorsday! Alright, bad joke. I’m running on little sleep here. Cut me some slack. 🙂 What’s that? Okay, okay. We’ll get right to it then. Thor didn’t care to leave that manly celebration of testosterone and classic auto-motion last week. We’ll just keep his childish behavior between us. Shh. You’ll be happy to know…
Immortal Monday is taking the next couple of weeks off. But being me, I couldn’t leave you totally empty handed. Having covered the Greek gods on several occasions I thought you might enjoy exploring the myth of Athena and Arachne. I’ll let the video do the talking. This is one interpretation. Have you heard of another?…
A Mighty Fist Shake of approval to all those who participated in last week’s challenge. We had a lot of fun and enjoyed your answers, both real and creative. So, what did Thor do last week? As many of you guessed (Imelda Evans, Melinda VanLone, Louise Behiel ), Thor got in a solid workout early in…
Zeus: “Father of Gods and Men.” Sound like a grand title to you? This is Zeus. The Olympian who took control of Mount Olympus. I can’t think of a better immortal for our Immortal Monday focus around Father’s Day, can you? You may recall we covered the birth and rise of Zeus in our Poseidon…
Thor throws back his head in a mighty roar of laughter. He is delighted with your participation in the immortal game. He is especially happy to see the ladies present. He has decided to share his adventures of the previous week with you. (Make sure you stay long enough to catch the new challenge at the…
Want to rub the magic lamp? Pop the cork on the genie’s bottle? Your wish is my command. *Blink* Five words you’d like to hear? But how many times have you heard, be careful what you wish for? It’s true. When we wish for something we often forget to consider the full consequences. This is the…
Pools, sprinklers, green grass, sunshine and kids at play all day long. These are all things that remind me of summer. Kristen Lamb shared a fun post this last week that allowed us all to skip through our childhood summer days. Nostalgia is a wonderful friend, is it not? I encourage you to jump over…
You are a powerful Norse god. Only you can wield the mighty Mjölnir. Thunder responds to your command. You are the almighty Thor! All work and no play makes a Norse god a cranky god. With summer comes busy schedules all around, and added challenges for myself as I attempt to keep up with my blog…
To be or not to be a god? That is the question. With all the hype bubbling over regarding the Avengers, I thought it was high time we took a closer look at Loki on today’s Immortal Monday. Sorry. Had to do it. 😀 If your knowledge of Loki can be summed up by everything…
I hope you didn’t miss me too much this last week. Family issues called me away. It’s the holiday weekend and I hope you are all out enjoying family and friends (if you celebrate). Immortal Monday will be here for you when you are ready. Live life first. 😀 Now on to today’s post… Mephisto…
