Prince Telemachus is stunned that Athena, the goddess of wisdom, craft, and war, is outside his house and has gone unnoticed. No one wants a guest to feel unwelcome in his house or place of business. Scott Humphrey makes it a priority that every single person who walks through the Bar J Chuckwagon’s doors in the summer feels welcome, for it’s a family show!

Upon close inspection of Homer's Iliad, I choose to believe it was the power of myth and the ideal of the Epic Hero that created the criteria for Greek Leadership.
