The New Lotus Eaters

January 3, 2011

In Homer’s Odyssey the Lotus Eaters make people lose track of all time and all desire to do anything but eat the lotus and have fun.

This morning, I had a half hour to spare before work. My choices were: print and mail a letter to my mom, drop off some drycleaning, drop off some library books, and go buy a book for my nephew; or watch a TV show I had recorded.

I think I know what the Lotus Eaters have evolved into.
