The gods of Love at War
“Your Honor, my client believes he has more of a right to be the official god of love, I mean he is Cupid after all?â? said the Roman god of loves lawyer.
“I object your honor, my client Eros has as much right to be the official god of love, the Greeks are famous for love and beauty, you have just to look at all of our statues to see that,â? said the Greek god of loves lawyer.
“Beware of Greeks bareing..,â? Cupid said under his breath.
“I heard that,â? said Eros, “You better beware of me diaper boy.â?
“Oh yeah Errors,â? said Cupid, “You want an arrow up your nose?â?
“Order in the courtroom,â? the judge yelled and banged his gavel.
In the back of the room sat two beautiful goddesses, Athena and Minerva.
“Might we offer a suggestion?,â? asked Minerva, the Roman goddess of wisdom.
“You may,â? replied the judge.
“My Greek counterpart and I have an idea, why not let them both alternate every other day and Valentine’s day stays with Cupid and Eros takes Arbor day.â?
“Good idea,â? said the judge, “Case dismissed.â?
