Subdeacon Joe Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 58 minutes ago, DocWard said: What's a Lete? Lete (Mygdonia) From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to navigationJump to search Macedonia and the Chalcidice Lete (Ancient Greek: Λήτη or Λητή) was an ancient city in Mygdonia, Macedon and Roman Catholic titular see in the Roman province of Macedonia. History Lete is known by its coins and inscriptions, mentioned in Ptolemy (III, xiii), the Pliny the Younger (IV, x, 17), Harpocration, Stephanus Byzantius and Suidas in Antiquity and in the Middle Ages in Nicephorus Bryennius (IV, xix). The spelling "Lite" is incorrect and comes from iotacism. In its necropolis was found the Derveni papyrus. Lete appears in some Notitiæ episcopatuum of a late period as suffragan of the Archbishopric of Thessalonica, later united to the See of Rentina. Lete and Rentina even had Greek (Orthodox) bishops until the eighteenth century. Lete became the small village of Aivati/Ajvatovo situated a little north of Thessaloniki. Bulgarian revolutionary Andon Dimitrov was born there in 1867. The site of Lete is the near the modern Liti.[1] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cold Lake Kid, SASS # 51474 Posted March 3, 2019 Author Share Posted March 3, 2019 OK, here is what I tried to post: An advertisement for my new business: Dentistry. It's an offshoot of my cabinetry business, the advantage being I can use many of the same tools! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cold Lake Kid, SASS # 51474 Posted March 3, 2019 Author Share Posted March 3, 2019 You'll notice I have my shooting ear plugs in? They do double duty for shooting and screaming patients. Red Storm, (the patient) is slowly recovering and is now able to eat mush and other soft or creamed foods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have now clue about letes. This considering makes my head hurt. I don't know, but I was talking to a guy at the store last night, and he said he came for a specific item that we didn't have, and that he was a Noid. Now, the fact that he drove to the store, coupled with the fact he felt it so important to tell me he was a Noid, must mean that he's from Noi or some such place I've never heard of, and that it is a pretty far drive to our store. Of course, I didn't want to tell him I had no idea where Noi was, or whatever the name of the place is that Noids come from, so I just nodded, apologized and suggested he call next time before making the drive. At one point he said he really was a Noid, like I didn't believe him or something. I'll admit, he didn't seem really happy about the fact that he was a Noid, so I wonder if all Noids are as grumpy as he was. If so, I don't think I want to visit.
