Know Your Greek Mythology

Of all the monsters in Greek lore, the twenty-seventh most deadly and mysterious was Medusa’s dog, Fred. According to legend, all who looked into Fred’s horrific face were turned into trees, which Fred would then use as Nature required. Eventually, Fred was slain by the heroic cat Pussius.

I’m just having a bad snake day.

    Dog looks resigned to his fate.

      Yes he has a bit of the resigned look. But also partly proud that he’s pleasing his master.
      “Pussius” πŸ˜‚

    I would like to get a male cat just so I could name him Pussius. Also I love Fred’s calm and resolute expression.

      Pussius in Boots.

    This literally made me LOL!! πŸ˜‚ Of course his name is Fred. And, Pussius? Snort!

    That was one hell of a scrolldown, lol.

    I can’t imagine seeing that hat and not thinking “yep that’s going on the dog.”

      Hat? What hat?

      I had the same reaction. Though of course I’d be thinking “yep that’s going on the cat.”

    I think Fred looks a bit non-plussed and a shade haughty that one might find any humor in his headgear.

    (still having to fill in info – anybody else?)

      I still have to fill the info too. I tried clearing all my history and all the cookies but it still doesn’t work with Safari on my Mac. Doesn’t work on my iPad either.

        Hey! No more edit comments either!

          I apologize for that. The comment editing system has stopped working since the move to the new host. I am looking for a fix or an alternate editing system.

      • Dubravkamcvmd March 18, 2019 / 6:37 pm

        I’m still filling in all the info too.

    It’s all geek to me.

    This Fred reminds me of my Phred ( who loved
    the Phillies). Same patient look. He would go
    along with anything I wanted of him. Still miss
    him. 😒 And…I still have to fill everything in, too.
