Slithery edition of weekly trivia

Many people this week have snakes on a brain because St. Patrick is credited for banishing them from Ireland. But when I think of snakes I think of Medusa from ancient Greek mythology who pioneered them as a fashion statement. What I did not know was that Medusa overshadowed two other equally coifed and dangerous sisters. Can you name them off your snake-free head? If you can send me a message and receive the adulation that comes with being known as one of the premier campus ophiologists.
If need to do a little research on this or any question how about using an online encyclopedia that you know is from a reputable source and can trust in a bibliography? We have many to choose from on this page.
Last week I asked about an infamously querulous couple who chose the ill-fated date of March 15th to be married for the first time. The mystery couple who set the standard for tumultuous relationships are Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton. The campus gossipmongers who knew the answer are
Peter Erickson
Jan Orf
John Wendt
Laure Benson
Elizabeth Dial
Thank you very much!
