Apart from this op-ed's too-funny headline, it's interesting reading about Homer's THE ODYSSEY and whether the events depicted actually happened or Homer (not of "The Simpsons", that other guy) made them up.
Of course, I can't read about THE ODYSSEY without thinking of "Ulysses", that wonderful movie with Kirk Douglas. Circe and the Sirens (sounds like rock group, doesn't it?), the Cyclops and lines like "More wine for Polythemus! Son of Neptune!" (Not to mention one of my favorites, "Beggars were always welcome in the house of Ulysses.")
