"this is the wrong continent for amazons, johnny."
"we come from the isle of lesbos"

    "Known for its forests of petrified wood." Fertile ground for comedy.

  2. the funniest part of jack's link is this:
    "
    One meaning of the word lesbian derives from the poems of Sappho, who was born in Lesbos and who wrote with powerful emotional content directed toward other women. It is due to this association that Lesbos and especially the town of Eresos, her birthplace, are visited frequently by lesbian tourists,[4] much to the chagrin of some deeply conservative and traditionalist Greek Orthodox elements of the island's population.[5] In 2008, a group of Lesbian islanders lost a court case against the Homosexual and Lesbian Community of Greece. The Lesbian islander group had requested a legal injunction to bar homosexual groups from using the word "lesbian" in their names, which the petitioners claim violated their human rights as it is "insulting" and disgraces them around the world.

  4. Wait, what?
    Of course they are REALLY Amazons... the Queens of Amazonia! The all-female nation of warriors in greek mythology. Remember Hippolyta and her magical girdle!?
    Hands off the Queen Todd-Fluffers... I'm working on a costume and lifting weights to bulk-up.
