  1. Hilarious!

    Paris: As the name suggests, he was the capital of France. He couldn't keep his Eiffel Tower down after meeting Helen, who went on to become his fond Louvre. He was known to be in Seine, especially when passing judgements.
    Idi-pus: Dictator of Greece-annexed-Uganda and a sore to the kingdom. He later on had a 'complex' relationship with an Austrian Fraud. A silent killer, Idi-pus was, who finally broke his silence when someone told him he was keeping mum.
    Uselessis: The Greek who led a boring life with just one wife and ended up in the title of a half-understood 20th century novel.
    A Polo: His standard pick-up line: 'I'm a mint with a hole, and so are you, baby'. And thus did he net a harem with a diversity of such breadth that is matched only by Zeus.

    Last line for Paris goes 'He was known to be in Seine, especially in striptease sessions.
