Are you a descendant of Sparta?
This is the land of the Maniots, a clannish community said to be descended from Spartans, the legendary warriors of Ancient Greece.

A tidbit that some of our friends over in the "Foods I dislike" thread need to read:
At 86, Oikonomeas still remembers his mother spooning hardboiled eggs into his mouth to make him stronger, insisting that as the only boy it was up to him to continue the family legacy.

We should find out if Bob has any brothers. We may need to spoon feed him some hardboiled eggs.

And how'd that work out for them, considering they haven't been relevant for 2300 years?LooseGoose wrote:A tidbit that some of our friends over in the "Foods I dislike" thread need to read:At 86, Oikonomeas still remembers his mother spooning hardboiled eggs into his mouth to make him stronger, insisting that as the only boy it was up to him to continue the family legacy.

Nope. But one branch of my family were descendants of Vikings that settled in Ireland. The family was even given control of a castle in Cork County. So I got that going for me, which is nice.
