One Must Wonder

One must wonder after reading the article entitled, “Ex: A-Rod Had Portraits of Himself as Centaur Hanging Over His Bed,” what exactly Alex Rodriguez might be thinking? Did he wake up one morning and say, I wonder how I would look as a mythological figure? Or perhaps, chicks will love seeing the half centaur, half Alex, figure above my bed as I am ravaging them? If he gets married will there be a half centaur portrait of his bride added to the bedside? Does a new male or female conquest enter the bedroom and see the centaur figure and respond favorably? Carl Jung thought the centaur was a symbol of animal instinct or libido so perhaps Alex has read Jung and is using this as a bizarre aphrodisiac?

Or maybe A-Rod's just full of himself.

Yeah, right. I picture A-Rod reading Carl Jung all the time.

Sandy, it would be amusing and ironic if he really did read Jung and contemplate questions like that.
