DID YOU KNOW? STARBUCKS TWO TAILERS ARE MESULINS

The Starbucks logo with the "mermaid" with two legs is actually a mesaline. Check out "A Dictionary of Symbols" by J.E. Cirlot. Sirens come in two types... the half-bird and half woman type, and the half fish and half woman type, called a mermaid. The ancient Greeks though both types were busy seducing mariners with promises of sex. Of course, cuter stories via Disney movies, and cartoons, have given mermaids other reputations.
