This time I’m in Hong Kong. Their highly civilized airport has free wi-fi. I won’t say I’m home free until I get through customs in Taipei, but I’ve safely made it this far.

The flight was long, Hong Kong doesn’t look anything like I expected from above, though the airport is everything I expected and more (read large and city-like).

The flight was flight-like and I’m exhausted. On the movie side of things, I thought Percy Jackson was actually quite good. The casting was hilarious. The only thing bothering me is how Medusa got her body back after the last demi-god incident.

:) I was curious about that as well. Went with Godly regeneration skill, an un mentioned side affect of her sentance. Or one of the other gorgon's was mistaken as Medusa (although, I don't actually recall if they had the same stone powers as Medusa...hmmm).

Mmm. Jake Abel.

Yay, HK!

*wishes you lots and lots of luck with customs*

The thing that REALLY bugged me was that Persephone was in Hades in the summer.

argh my response got lost. I understand that it would have taken them too long to explain the Persephone thing. What bothered me more is how everyone's always portraying Tautarus as Hell and Hades as a Devil. It's kind of not fair to him. Also, as much as I liked the characterization of Persephone, it wasn't very in character from my perspective of her set of myths.
