looks like this is what one would be getting into.

 

This was too much for a lively girl like Pandora, who among her gifts was endowed with the first feminine curiosity. After restraining it for a little while, she at last gave in and lifted the lid from the jar, and from that moment began the sorrows of mankind. For each of the gods had stored in it the worst thing he was able to give, and wonderful as had been the gifts with which they endowed her, just as dreadful were the evils that rushed eagerly from the jar in a black stinking cloud like pestilent insects - sickness and suffering, hatred and jealousy and greed, and all the other cruel things that freeze the heart and bring on old age.

 

Pandora tried to clap the lid on the jar again, but it was too late. The happy childhood of mankind had gone forever, and with it the Golden Age when life was easy. From then on man had to wrest a hard living by his own labour from the unfriendly ground.

 

 

Sounds like some high maintence ex-girlfriends i have had.

She left out the most important part of the story. The only thing that was left in the box after Pandora slapped the lid back on it was Hope.

The pic is of Miles Davis because right now I am into some of those jazz greats: Davis, Coltrane, Mingus, Monk. It is wonderful, relaxing music that brings calm from the hectic days. I like to change the pic from time to time. My name is a wonderful ice climb that I love in Ouray, Colorado. I have to climb it every year when I am there.

I'm a retired band director, hence my board-name. I am also a composer and the avatar is from a page of my manuscript (of course now I don't write it out by hand any more...notation software is sooo nice). cool.gif

 

Edit: tongue.gif I just saw that this thread is 3 years old and dormant for a year before Dru just woke it up!! Oh, well, I guess it can take on a new life.
