If Alexander the Great had used Occam's razor to cut the Gordian knot, would it have been a Pyrrhic victory? Or perhaps he did manage to untie it after all. We know Alexander was a canny lad. But if King Pyrrhus of Epirus was ruined by his victory against the Romans, why was he not more concerned about Greeks bearing gifts of razors?
It's a conundrum and also a confused conflation of historical (and possibly mythical) periods! But that's the great thing about history, past events are viewed through the lens of selective subjective opinion.
Austin feels I have been a bit esoteric, but I put it down to being over medicated!

I'm not a cat, but if I was, I'd owe my whiskers to whoever put them on my face. >(o.o)<
Happy Easter!!

I am wary of Greeks in general. And Greek Generals.
And razors.
Well, crumbs, Mommy was so busy being "witty" we for got to wish you a Happy Easter from the pagan horde!
HAPPY EASTER!!!!!

HUH!? No wonder Austin has a nip problem with that kind of talk. We had an Easter miracle on my blog. TW noticed that today a picture of Jesus Christ has appeared in the header picture. We never saw in there before. Whoa! Happy Easter!
...Or under-medicated, but who's to judge?
This post made me smile. Good for an Easter morning.
Take Care!
Wishing you a wonderful Easter.
Peace be with you, new furend! Happy Ressurection Day!!
Licks,

We always knew Austin was a philosopher. We like chewing the Gordian knots in our our Persian rugs ;-) Have a blessed Easter!
We are with Austin, HUH. But we do wish you a very Happy Easter. You are probably in bed by now.
Bailey is a dog that belongs to a wonderful lady that does not have a blog because she has real trouble with her hands and can't type very much. I voted for Bailey in a couple of contests that he was in, so we became friends. So for the fun of it, I put him on my blog. She is good friends with Brian at Brians blog.
Take care.

Actually, it's not any about eggs and bunnies, is it? Happy Easter!
A very happy Easter to you all!
He has risen!

Happy Easter!
Austin darl,
In our household, everyday is a festival....be it Eid, Xmas, CNY, Vesak, Divali, Easter, Hanukah...you name it. The only thing we don't observe is fasting. Come on...we're cats. Cats don't fast...except the night before *snip*....ouch! Your fellow tuxie is due for his *snip* next month! purrr....meow!
OK, I don't care if it's due to being over medicated, it gave me a chuckle. Hope you had a good Easter.
I hope you had a very happy Easter!
What fun! Austin, don't worry your pretty little head about your mom's mewsings, they really are not at all logical, but they are very clever. She's a keeper, you know.
LOL, my response when reading the first paragraph was quite a bit like Austin's. It's early and my brain is muddled, that has to be my excuse.
I hope you and Austin and all your family had a very Happy Easter! :)
Oh, I wasnt around. Surely it is all about eggs and bunnies, and the little chicks, and the roasted lamb.... he we are cats, arent we?
