Hermione of course, was the mythological daughter of Helen of Troy and King Menelaus of (adopts Gerard Buter voice) Sparta!

Oh, my goodness.
He looks so sweet. Bet he's mean as all get out. Look at that wicked glint in his eye. He's got the mojo on somebody.
bellyrubs for the furry belly, dont bite the rubs belly
"Midas", It was King Midas who touched things and turned them to gold but screwed up when he hugged his daughter.
The story's only been around for 2500 years so you're forgiven for not knowing the details.
I guess you should get a couple of kudo points for at least being aware of it. 
But as a side note: Centuries later after King Midas, the Romans found the palace of the long dead Greek and all his gold, but fortuitously the Ferengi were inspecting this part of the galaxy at the time and made a deal with the Romans for the gold. The negotiations were held in Latin because the Romans couldn't grasp Ferengi. Unfortunately the single Ferengi spaceship was rather small so in order to transport all that gold they had to press it into smaller volume by fusing it with platinum. The Ferengi engineer who devised the technology for pressing the gold had been enamored with the Latin language and wrote the technology manuals in Latin. So ever since then the Ferengi have incorporated Midas' gold into their previously all platinum economy but found that the smaller volume of the mix of gold and platinum was advantageous and still refer to it as Gold Pressed Latinum.
It is uncertain what the Romans got out of the deal after giving up that much gold. However, Roman emperors are not all noted for being the wisest of people. It's not unlikely that some lead poisoned wacko negotiated away all that gold for a chance to give umocks to some lovely naked Ferengi female.

I figured out why I cannot find the book I was looking for. The payment did not go through.
I think I wins, but a matter of opinion. Hard to beat panda cutes.

...I call it the "green tunnel", really nice to walk throuhg on a hot day.
playing an audiobook on my tablet while the device is muted is stupid.
Nice!

MOrning. A little like the inside of a beer fridge here a little after sun up but for once no wind so maybe some rayz will warm us up a little :)
They are building apartments on every spare square inch of land near me, some of the riverbanks are already in shadow so things are bound to change there :)
...yeah lots of really neat places in the neighbourhood like this. Instead of "golf course groomed" lawns, many homes in the area have front yards that are gardens, often seeded with wildflowers. Lots of the "good" green here when you get on the backstreets.
Part of why I'd be hard pressed to move elsewhere in the country, even given my achy bones and joints.
...that's happening here too as well, but mostly along main thoroughfares. Many of the new developments also do not include parking so tenants have to park on surrounding neighbourhood streets.
Portland also has a restriction called the Urban Growth Boundary which was imposed to prevent outward sprawl so the focus has shifted more to high density housing. Don't know how this will work out as over the next two decades, they are expecting another 720,000 people to be living here which will more than double the city's current population. Traffic is going to be a real bother as the local geography severely limits road and street expansion. Most newcomers we see today tend to bring their cars with them and don't use transit.
That was Goldfinger, and he did it with gold spray paint and the contents of Fort Knox.
Bed time now; nighty night. :)
