The Flight of Icarus

The greek mythological story of the flight of Icarus has, for some reason, always stuck out in my mind. I'm not exactly sure why it truly has, but thinking about it now, it must have all started with music.

At the time when the story was being told to me, I was into the band Iron Maiden and my favorite song was The Flight of the Icarus. From that came an better understanding of the story, and soon, I was using it as my aim address, then using it as just an alias. It just seemed to stick and I loved the story, I don't really know why.
