Abstract

ok, here's what happened. Jove, back at the penthouse after 171 another romp with Europa, found the atmosphere at Parnassus a bit pent-up. Juno was exceedingly cool and at bedtime downright snarly around the edges. Suspicious that Diana might be the cause of his wife's icy demeanor, Jove sent Echo downtown to hang out at the goddess's west side studio. Echo confirmed everything. Thanks to Diana and her feminist buddies, word of Jove's totally bullish and unacceptable behavior had made the rounds. Peeved, Jove plotted payback. Everyone knew that?hunting aside?Diana and her circle had but two pleasures: putting down the guys and drawing. As Echo reiterated again and again: when these ladies talked they trashed, and when they drew they drew each other.
