In Ancient Greek Akeles steped on his heel while on his toes. "Ouch." he cried, in ancient Greek. Did Bluesy Socratease hear him? And what about Pie, olive oil and triangles? Jaime |

Achilles was an insightful man Daddy Goose, and a bit of a prankster. To create a simple answer to his riddle (unbeknownst to those he riddled), he removed the heels from his upscale sandals and placed them under his toes. His error however, was that he forgot about the heel tacks sticking out and that prompted him to cry out, ‘OUCH!’ Yes, I certainly could hear him as did the whole world and we’ve been saying “ouch” in response to pain ever since! To make himself feel better after making such a fuss, he had Mrs. Achilles bake him a tasty olive pie. Her geometry skills were unmatched in the kitchen and each mouth-watering slice was a perfect triangle! …That made me hungry. See ya! It's been a slice! ...just bein' Bluesy |
