Revenge of the Pulps

Is she the namesake of the "amphora"?
No - amphi means 'around', amphiktiones means 'people living near, neighbours',
and that was probably the meaning of the Amphiktyonic league.
The goddess's name is really a title for Demeter as the tutelary goddess of that alliance,
and especially of their get-togethers, that seem to have been both religious rites and boozy parties,
when amphorae were no doubt emptied in profusion - but I don't think the word's related.

PS just checked on that - amphora means literally 'two-eared', a nice name
for a two-handled wine flagon!

So, basically, she is the patroness of getting together and drinking.

"Truth about your "Strange" sex impulses." Oh shit! Someone's hacked the CF database! Oh Shit!:eek:
"True West Novelette: Deliver your Virgins or We Burn the Town." What if we don't have any that are still virgins!
"Expose: Lowdown on the Want Ads 'Female Masseuse Available'". That's actually very timely. I've had this crick in my neck for days and I could use....What? Really? That kind of Masseuse? Well that's timely too!
"Passion Slave of the Blonde Whip Goddess" Oh yeah! Cute girl, nice outfit, nice bondage, whip snaking in. Yeah!
Cover: "Raw Meat for the Jaws of Hell". Art only OK. Girl is cute but over dressed. Torture concept very original but not very sexy - dragged behind a boat for the sharks to eat? But, The Blurb is sensational! "Raw Meat" - right on!
 
So Much to say.

This clearly reinforces the news that shark attacks are on the rise.

Beacon-B493F-1961-600x992.jpg"Meg Gwyn was a beautiful sex-driven nurse without scruples, who neglected her patients and left her post to keep a passion Tryst." 'sex-driven nurse without scruples' - my kind! 'who neglected her patients and left her post to keep a passion Tryst' - can anyone really fault her!
