Poseidon is said to rule the seas, but what about small fresh water lakes, like we have here in Minnesota. I'll forfeit that he controls Lake Superior, but what about all the smaller lakes and frog ponds?

Poseidon, who won the right to rule the seas, was also the god of horses and of earthquakes. Poseidon's domain actually extended beyond the oceans to include freshwater rivers, even though the river gods were the sons of Oceanus and Tethys.

Who? What the???? Jake where do you get all this stuff?

Where does The Lady Of The Lake fit in to all of this?

Isn't that Jason? Kill, kill, kill, kill....

Who needs some watery trollop handing out swords to decide who's king. We do however need the Laker girls.

We are the Nights that say NI!

Kohl, You are so hip! Isn't "Neptune" the Roman's name for Poseidon? My thoracic surgeon's name is Neptune, and my sailing adventures greatly increased after surgery...

Guestion: What/is the name of Posidon's/Neptune's Chariot??? I've been curious about that.

Well, Lake Erie is ruled by LEM (Lake Erie Monster), more affectionately known as South Bay Bessie. Sightings go back into the 1800's. See attachment.

"Affectionately..."

Now, there's an interesting choice of words after seeing that picture!

Of course, it's obviously doctored, there's no UFO or alien in that photo...

Who knows what Poseidon really looks like? <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

that's what you get for hitting lovable little LEM over the head with your lead keel. It'd p1ss me off too if I were her... Mind you, better watch out with those sharp daggerboards too. Better switch to centerboards...
