Classics-y things
Aristotle? Waaay too much with the big words. And the thinking. And the wibbling.
And check this out:
Iliad, Book 22, lines 26-31, Lattimore translation
"...like that star
which comes on in the autumn and whose conspicuous brightness
far outshines the stars that are numbered in the night's darkening,
the star they give the name of Orion's Dog, which is brightest
among the stars, and yet is wrought as a sign of evil
and brings on the great fever for unfortunate mortals.."
Yep, that'd be Sirius. Tee hee hee.
...Can you tell I'm doing homework?
