So sweet, and so reluctant! Hope you're anticipating New Year's Eve and the New Year more than Manon. We're having dinner with friends, and, I hope, going to bed shortly after midnight. See you in 2012!
In the Iliad, she is described as the loveliest of the daughters of Priam (King of Troy), and gifted with prophecy. The god Apollo loved her, but she spurned him.

Very Happy New Year to you and yours, Beth.
