... that some cockharmer chipped the phalluses (phalli? phallodes?) off the Herms of Athens. This is one of HISTORY'S GREATEST UNSOLVED CRIMES.
Thanks to Ammonite for this titbit (not on her blog). And thanks to Myles for the great new word cockharmer.

vocabulary: Having been introduced to both words in the last month or so, I have to say I prefer the 'cockfarmer' to 'cockharmer'. (Not the most incisive comment, but I'm just revelling in the fact that I can now comment on your blog. Let the spamming begin!!! Ahahahahahahahaha!!!)
Anyone is welcome to comment on my blog, so long as they are capable of filling in one of those word verification things.
I thought Ian mistyped cockfarmer, which word I obviously prefer. But I'm here to comment on TITbit. Titbit! Hahaha!
I remember trying to post a while ago, but I think you have to have a blogger account. Now that I have one (shameless plug: frogsforsnakes.blogspot.com), I can comment.
So far we've two votes for cockfarmer over cockharmer.
I don't have a blog, but I'm able to comment ... You just need to choose Other as your identity.
Make that three votes for cockfarmer.
I'm all in favour of cockfarmer in general use. Clearly in this particular case it was a cockharmer.
Myles is right. The Herm vandals were harming cock, not farming it.
Unless they were harvesting the cock, ready for the next year's planting?
