My sister sent me a text message this afternoon that said simply, "Odysseus died of a stringray barb to the heart too!"
In addition to this Wikipedia sanctioned story, Odysseus also died a "gentle death by sea," which in less poetic parts is explained to be the cruel serrated point of a stingray's tail.
My sister is even now explaining to me the difference in the two different myths and why they both exist, but I will leave you with this-the State Funeral that the Premier offered poor Terry is far more apropos than I ever thought.
Rest in Peace Steve, and enjoy your wild animal baiting with Heracles and your death-sake O-dog.
