Hi gang!
 
To those who want to abolish this newsgroup...DON'T READ IT AND IT WON'T BOTHER YOU!
 
On with our story......
 
I thought it might be interesting to record bizarre business slogans, I'll start:
 
THE RADIATOR MAN  in Everett, Washington (206) 353-6999
"The best place to take a leak"
 
TOM THUMB GROCERY in Granite Falls, Washington (206) 691-6966
"If we ain't got it, you don't need it"
 
O.K. your turn.....

Now wait a minute!  The topic is _still_ being beaten to death in net.jokes,
and you want to start it over!

  Does anyone have a Canonical Collection of {ambiguous,bizarre,boring} business
slogans?  If you do, please send the originator of the above six(6) copies.
Don't worry about others doing the same, it's O.K.  Really. ( :-) !!!).

PS. I can do without a copy myself, thank you.

Makes me wonder how the people at John Fluke Manufacturing avoid the
following joke:

	If it's a good meter, it must be a Fluke.

Well... in Nashville there was a venetian blinds company (right next to
David's Cookies on West End Avenue) whose motto was, "Come see the
blind man"...

I once saw a replica of a foreign magazine advertisement that said:

'Nothing sucks like Electrolux'

Reminds me of electronics lab. In the write-ups one student
reported that he obtained a value of 36 flukes.

I only got 22 flukes.
