Tony, I haven't read much Greek mythology and I've read even less fiction/commentary upon Greek mythology. To me that is an inefficient allocation of time. I'm big upon understanding though. Big upon definitions. Big upon distinctions and subtleties. There was an ancient goofy school of thought that said the universe was absurd to humans because they couldn't ascertain sufficient order in it. That said, I've never heard anyone say the unique galatic absurdity trickles down to humans or human endeavors. Maybe your friend Camus was very confused. He wasn't one of the originals after all. Of course now we have science and T-graph to bring order to our endeavors even if one really thought absurdity applied to us in earlier times.
Tony, if you're the one confused. If you're wagering upon polystrack and getting your hat handed to you, you're in the right place. The host here takes chaos and brings order to it. My advice with Polywagers is "Just say No", but if you can't help yourself, he can begin to help you.
P.S. Also, dont' bet on Channing Hill unless you're getting great odds and hes sitting on a lot of horse.
