i'm sure most are familiar with this word.....what i found
INteresting was the origins of this word.......so
interesting. i used to read greek mythology like it was
going OUT of style (perhaps it has) and i remember this
story. enjoy!

tantalize (TAN-tuh-lyz)

verb tr.,
also tantalise

To tease or torment by showing something desirable but
keeping it out of reach.

[After Tantalus in Greek mythology. Tantalus, a king of
Lydia, was
condemned to stand in Hades chin deep in water and under
fruits that receded
whenever he tried to drink water or eat the fruit.]

Used in a sentence:

LeCoeur _tantalizes_ me with her wits and frisky ears.

;)

Alter your ears into a "scottish fold" type look. They'll
give the impression of short ears without trimming them...
