I was the daughter of a goddess
the lord of the underworld tricked me
my image was painted by a pre-raphaelite |

and yes, know what you mean, no education of my own to speak of, but reading always provides some knowledge to add to your own.
albeit, as my English teacher said,... creating a mine of useless information. |

I wonder what happened to Smiley.
HELLO! SMILEY! SMILEY_SCOTTIE! Where are you?
Actually, mar_ja, I cheated (again) and looked up your very reasonable guess of Bell in wikipedia, and there found: "and both his mother and wife were deaf, profoundly influencing Bell's life's work"
Since smiley seems to be off at the stove, on behalf of the thread I award you your two points...
... and move the game along with another offering...
I do talk, just not very much; but I manage, somehow.
Famous? You betcha! Especially to international travellers.
In fact, my fame results mostly from my creativity in ordinary situations.
Have twice travelled outside my English homeland: first as Art Expert, then as tourist.
My sleeping companion has become lucrative merchandising. |

Recap, plus TWO for the price of ONE :-)
I do talk, just not very much; but I manage, somehow.
Famous? You betcha! Especially to international travellers.
In fact, my fame results mostly from my creativity in ordinary situations.
Have twice travelled outside my English homeland: first as Art Expert, then as tourist.
My sleeping companion has become lucrative merchandising.
AND
Millions know me by my surname, but even I don't know if I have a christian (given) name.
AND
I'm considered a pretty funny fellow.
Who am I? |

Sorry... And yet more clues.
(It's tough to make it hard but not too hard.)

Famous? You betcha! Especially to international travellers.

Generally mild mannered and even tempered, I really hate a certain blue 3 wheeler that plagues my life on the streets. |
