Perhaps the schol faculty has some dirty old (and I do mean OLD) letches on staff who know that so long as the skirt length is optional, they can get away with letting the 18 year old seniors get away with skirts that are quite short.
Thankfully Zeus is 'locked out' so to speak. If I lived in the Wapsiverse and had a daughter, I wouldn't want Zues in an adjacent dimension, let alone the same one as my hypothetical daughter.

Good call. Zeus' godly powers did not include the ability to keep it in his toga.

True. However, in the modern world (if he could get here past the Grid), he isn't likely to be able to have his way with daughters like he used to back in the day.
I admit to not having actually done the research, but I rather suspect that most tween girls these days would put golden showers in the "Ewwww!" category.

Jake slides over and growls at Dad through a mouthful of shrimp.

DAD: What ... ?
JAKE: Your women... I want to buy your women… the little girl, your daughters... sell them to me... sell me your children....
DAD: Maited'! Maitred'!
for those who have not seen the film, they are blackmailing the guy (AL) to get him to leave his Maître d'hôtel / head waiter job to come back to the old band...

I haven't seen that movie in a long time, but it was pretty great. I just hope Hollywood doesn't try to do a remake, because they'll screw it up badly.

I wasn't all that impressed; and i believe there's already BEEN a second
Blues Brothers film...
Yep.
{If you're familiar with the "Went to see a fight and a hockey game kept interrupting" bit, Roger Ebert's review of Blues Brothers 2000 basically boils down to "A lot of good music that a mediocre film keeps interrupting".}

The review of Blues Brothers that I remember said that it accounted for most of Chrysler's sales that year.

It certainly reduced the available number of Dodge Monacos with police packages.
Christine pretty much sucked up all the 1958 Furies (and a bunch of Dodge Belvederes) that were on the market... (I may be wrong, but the number 36 is echoing around in my head.)
And every one of them painted in a paint job the factory never offered.
