Woman: Hello? Sylvia? Oh, hey, girl...Can I call you right back? I was just puttin' my curlers in.
Actually, no. Perseus was able to slay Medusa by looking at her reflection – so apparently the reflection doesn’t have the same power as looking directly at her!
“With help from Athena and Hermes, who supplied him with winged sandals, Hades’ cap of invisibility, a sword, and a mirrored shield, he accomplished his quest. The hero slew Medusa by looking at her reflection in the mirror instead of directly at her to prevent being turned into stone.”
I love the way the snakes are constricting the “curlers!” I suppose they get to snack on ‘em once her ‘do is done?
