Extra points if anyone can come up with the connection between Ceres and Pluto (without searching the Internet!)

Wasn't Ceres aka Demeter who was the wife of Persephone who was the wife of Pluto after he abducted her?

Criminy ... now I know where soap opera writers got their plot themes .... greek/roman mythology.

Bingo! You get the no-prize, a ticket to Japanese Theater, and I don't mean Kabuki!

A Noh Prize!

I was teaching my kids Roman Mythology, which offended my exwife. Her lawyer wanted me directed to not do it anymore, as "noone believes in that."

The judge asked me to explain:

"I am confused. As I came in, I saw on top of the courthouse a lady with a blindfold, a sword, and scales, standing on a book of Law. That is the Roman G-ddess Justicia. Is Justice not honored in this court?"

Long silence. Judge says "I didn't know that."

An Attorney just behind him says "If you went to a good school, you would know these things."

Ouch!
