>> Alexander the Great liked petunias. His nickname for
Cleopatra in fact was my Little Porker Petunia..
Historians will note that Alexander the Great only referred
to Zenobia of Palmyra as "My Little Petunia," and that
Cleopatra (aka Elizabeth Taylor) was in fact the last of the
ruling Ptolemies--the line of kings descended from
Alexander's general Ptolemy. When Cleopatra was forced out
of power by the Romans, she asked to COBRA her health
insurance and was instead informed that she could kiss
someone's asp. This is the kind of tragic history that
supporters of Dis-ney, petunias, and Gandhi distort for
their own ends. It's something to do, I suppose.
