Sisyphus

Actually, one of my favorite quotes is from Albert Camus, who was about to be drummed out of the Existentialists Corps right before his death.  Recounting the mythic story of Sisyphus, the man condemned by the gods to push a boulder up a hill only to have it roll down again, day after day for all eternity, Camus ended his cautionary essay with the following: "One must imagine Sisyphus happy".  So today we will try to imagine the Czarina happy as she may well be in some mythic place.
