"Yeah, I remember Delphi...."
Following elisem's piece "Nine things about oracles"
"Yeah, I remember Delphi.. Apollos gonads, why does EVERYONE ask me about Delphi? You think I like remembering that? You think it was fun or something? We worked for our living in those days. You crawl out of bed in the morning still hung over from yesterdays fumes and get told theres half a dozen kings or heroes waiting for you to tell them how messed up their lives are going to get, so its back to the smoke and wait for the 'oh shit' moment. Course we saw it coming, we were bloody ORACLES you idiot! Yeah, I knew it couldn't last. I knew I'd go from being the rock star with all the fancy mind altering substances the gods could produce to sitting here drinking beer so weak it tastes like piss. It's your round, by the way.... This kind of epic downfall takes effort, I mean, look at me! I'm such a mess I make Britney look like Sister Purity. No wonder I can only get work as a database these days... "
