I going to go with... the '80s cartoon. (Sorry man, that can't be good).

If you know your Greek, and I'll bet you do, then you'll know that I deliberately mis-spelled Ulysses. I chose that because Ulysses was forced to spend 10 years in the wilderness, the same length of time I was married for forst time round. Quite ironic, in that my wife decided she wanted more from life the same night as our wedding anniversary, right after the big party was over. That's another story, though. After a couple of years of adjusting to a single life with 2 growing children I met my wife (online, no less) and began my latest journey. This one will hopefully take a lot longer than ten years. If you want to know, my ex-wife knows I refer to our time togehter as my Odessy and she even claims to be every monster encountered apart from the cyclops (she says anything with one eye is definitely male). Proof that post-divorce can be reasonably amicable. It was pure coincidence that I was 31 when the separation came and there is a cartoon version of Ulysses called "Ulysses 31" (as per picture avatar). I think I grew more in the time after my devastation then all the years before, and am a much better person as a result. My ex-wife is happy in her new marriage so it was for the best all round, really. The children make, as well, because they have another set of parents to escape to during their holidays, giving each a chance to recharge batteries. My turn for the October hols, so I've got the sandbags up already. Sorry, I got away from the question. Greek legend, definitely (I think), or cartoon at a push. You realise what my question will now be, of course.
