Where in Hades is this?............

LOL, that is why I love FRee Republic, no other political /news web site would connect Orpheus and Hades like you did.

This is supposed to be the tomb of the mythological Greek poet and musician? 6,000 years old? I need more info.

Perhaps I misspelled it ... there is an underwater (mostly) site off of Okinawa which shows evidence of being used by humans at some distance in the past (prior to the end of the last ice age since is has been under water since then).

It’s not about Star Wars but manners: words like “freaking” don’t belong at a public forum. And San Fernando Valley talk, which consists mostly of the word “like,” is not a part of normal English. That is why I asked you to translate.

So I guess all that stuff I see on the show that comes from England or China is fake? Oh, and I did not immigrate here.

Now a joint project of Bulgaria and Greece will allow for the temple to be restored and after several months it will be shown in its all its splendour.

It doesn't look like there's much to restore, let alone return it to all its splendour!

What did they do, walk around and gather up all the little tiny pieces?

Maybe it's where his HEAD is buried . . . but they would have had to bring it all the way back from Lesbos . . . and it would be a bit waterlogged.

I meant the antiquities that were made here, not brought over on a ship.

I didn’t immigrate here either, but my ancestors did. Some of them came on a ship in the early 17th Century.

Is this the guy who wasn’t supposed to look at his wife? If that’s the case, it explains why Bill Clinton has long claimed that he is Orpheus.

He didn’t kill anyone to that point. He presided over the execution, but it could be like Star Trek where you have to respect the alien culture even if you don’t agree with it. His motivations were pretty shadowy until that scene.

I’m in the minority, but I thought that was the best episode of the prequels.
