The Title of This Blog

I once had a blog entitled The Title of This Blog, just so I could say "The title of this blog is The Title of This Blog." Clever, yes, but not terribly descriptive.

So I thought long and hard about the title of this one. Jason's Big Fat Greek Blog? too obvious, and has probably been done to death. One friend suggested The Oracle at Chania, as a spinoff on the famous Oracle at Delphi (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oracle_of_Delphi), but I decided against it as I am not feeling terribly oracular.

Then I learned that the original labyrinth was built by Daedalus for King Minos of Crete at Knossos. So there's a nice Cretan tie-in, plus it's descriptive of my thought processes! Now if I can just find my Ariadne to help me.
