         Athena is the daughter of Zeus. She sprang full grown in armour from his forehead . On one hand, she was a major warrior figure, and most images depict her dressed in armor and holding a spear. On the other hand she took an interest in handicrafts and agriculture. She invented the bridle, which permitted man to tame horses, the trumpet, the flute, the pot, the rake, the plow, the yoke, the ship, and the chariot. The olive tree, which she is said to have created, was sacred to her. She is the embodiment of wisdom, reason, and purity. She was Zeus's favorite child and was allowed to use his weapons including his thunderbolt.  

      Like Athena, Tina believes in truth and justice she is always ready to support a cause she believes in. Tina also enjoys helping  homesteaders and making Athens the best neighborhood in GeoCities. So feel free to send her an e-mail with any questions you may have, if she doesn't know the answer she'll find it or someone who does.

      In her spare time Tina enjoys writing, reading, needlecrafts, fishing (catch & release), gardening, and of course the most important spending time with her family. She is also a big animal lover and has 2 dogs and 2 cats who she spoils rotten; of course. In addition to being an Athens Community Leader she is also on staff at Writers' Village University and is a member of The Diva's of the Net.
