The Beginnings of Man -Part 1
The nature of Man has evolved over millions of years, changed by environmental conditions, by the response of his instinctual nature and by the actions of his ego.

My ret-constellation for the #constellation #sagitta was to align it with a modern archer (rather than random assorted Hercules stories or an Apollo killing cyclops story) -- some options I considered:
Kate Bishop Hawkeye
Merida from Brave
Robin Hood... but ultimately, who would be better than Legolas?!

Who is Erebus
In Greek mythology, #Erebus is the god and personification of darkness and shadow, one of the first beings to emerge from #Chaos. He represents the deep gloom that fills the spaces between the world and the Underworld.
Erebus is often seen as the brother and companion of #Nyx, and together they brought forth many of the darker forces of existence, like #Sleep, #Death, and #Dreams.

Well, at least it's not Fish(or Snake) Oil:
Myth: WD-40 Multi-Use Product contains fish oil.
Fact: “Consumers have told us over the years that they have caught some of the biggest fish ever after protecting their fishhooks and lures with WD-40 Multi-Use Product. We believe this legend came from folks assuming that the product must contain fish oil, since it appears to attract fish. Sorry, Charlie®, it just ain’t so.”
