Clio

Clio, n. One of the nine muses, Clio's function was to preside over history- which she did with great dignity, many of the prominent citizens of Athens occupying seats on the platform, the meetings being addressed by messrs. Xenophon, Herodotus and other popular speakers.

2005 Update: An annual award given for excellence in advertising. Although hardly noteworthy among honors and awards for success in deceit and misdirection, it does look nice on the mantle.

Ah, what a treat to find a fan of Our Muses and so fitting that you began with Clio of historical inspiration.
May "The One" bless all your endeavors.

Welcome, muse. Will Erato and Mnemosene be by soon I hope?
