What a shame your link didn't play the whole song, though. Still, there might be some Pothosians who cannot take such raunch.

Rectified Marcus! Have a re-visit back up this way...

I think the gay/not-gay warrior debate could be informed by certain Pythonesque military maneuvers, could it not?

Indeed -

I'm now trying to picture that scene with a Macedonian phalanx ...

On second thoughts, perhaps we should allow that one to confine itself to history ... (at least as far as Pothos is concerned).

Ahem ... back to Alexander ...

Paralas, I thank you. My cats, maybe not so much.

Marcus, a properly-trained phalanx can do anything. But we must stop now, as Efstathios wanted not to get into it
