I also passed a sculptors van that had a picture of the head of Apollo on it with the words "The face of modern plaster".

Queen-of-the-Rogue I think you see more than any of us do. Thing is, I only started noticing them more since I've joined the guild. 'Hermes Travel Centre' is my new submission for today. EDIT: I was listening to the radio when a song called 'babe' by a band called 'Styx' started to play.

I wonder why I never thought of that. Amazon is practically my dad's store. He shops there more than anywhere else.

Around here there's an Apollo Spas, and I've seen an Apollo tire company (explain that one. At least the spas make sense, since in his temple at Delphi I believe there were spas. God of medicine and all that.)
Also, the medical sign that looks like a staff? If I recall that's based on Hermes' staff.
Oh yes. Apollo college... Apparently they like the Sun god around here a lot.

 Here are somethings I can think of: Atlas a book of maps Pandora a music website (My second favorite site after Gaia) Venus razors Ajax a cleanser Mars bars Midas car service station Odyssey record company Saturn cars Trident gum Orion a motion picture production company Olympus cameras
Companies with greek/roman logos Versace- the logo for Versace is actually a representation of Medusa Starbuck's- the logo of Starbuck's is a Siren
