Does anyone remember the comedy skit from some 80s variety show that involved people trying to come up with a marketing campaign for Okra Cola?
Anya: We should drop a piano on her. It always works for that creepy cartoon rabbit when he's running from that nice man with the speech impediment. Giles: Yes, or perhaps we could paint a convincing fake tunnel on the side of a mountain.

Dr. Brown's Cel-Ray soda has an inexplicable following in the NY area.
DH claims to love it, but I think he just likes looking for it and not finding it.

Down here in the southland thay have Cheerwine, which I look suspiciously at. It tastes nothing like wine and does not, in fact, make me cheery.
Thing I can't say: Dear friend, I do not like the name you have chosen for your newborn son. (Harrison Herlastname Hislastname. No word on what they'll call him. It's too lastnamey all together, and I'm not a fan of Harry.)

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
What happens if two people who each have two last names have a kid and then decide to combine last names again?
My sis and her GF hyphenated their last names to get the last names of their kids.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Not sure why that just came to me, but there you go.

The wife of one of the guys in my department took the married name of Christina Christina, FWIW.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Not a fan of Pepsi Jazz, and I drink a lot of Diet Pepsi products. Dr. Brown's is good, though I've never developed the courage to try the celery stuff. Cheerwine is basically extra-carbonated Dr. Pepper or cherry cola, I'm not sure which -- I just know I was pleased to find some in Loudoun County, VA.
And Barq's is the only decent root beer.

I think FWIW would make a good last name.

I just ate breakfast and watched The Daily Show and was pleased to find out that Aasif Mandvi is now an official correspondent there.
Yay, Aasif! Now, if they could just give Larry Whitmore (that is his name, right?), their Senior Black Correspondent, more airtime, I'll be happy. Those two, as well as John Oliver, are the best guys they've got. Samantha does better with the spoof stuff (last night's "TDS" was really funny, and I like her consumer alerts--you're going to die NOW!), and Jason Jones is just annoying to me. John Hodgeman is going to be like Louis Black, a part-time contributor with his special segments, but that's fine.

Okay, I managed zen for about two hours, and now my misanthropy is kicking in hardcore.
