| Concrete trucks on a mission
Whenever I see a concrete truck, I always imagine that it's going
somewhere on a mission to fulfill concrete needs. Someone hauling
around fresh spinning concrete could never be going on a joy ride for
lunch. Have you ever seen a concrete truck at a McDonalds or a diner? I
bet not.
Onward concrete trucks! Good luck with your mission!

| Cow: most searched animal online
Overture has a great search engine tool that tells you how many
searches were done for any word you enter: http://inventory.overture.com/d/searchinventory/suggestion/
So I put together a list of 151 animals and plunked them into the system.
Quite surprisingly, cow was number one by far!
Here's the top ten animals searched online:
1,836,673 Cow
876,600 Dog
867,274 Cat
551,964 Horse
264,312 Wolf
239,099 Eagle
235,440 Dragon
231,533 Fox
185,986 Tiger
185,986 Weasel
And the lowest ten animals searched online:
3,109 Cockatoo
3,109 Grasshopper
2,026 Porcupine
1,809 Newt
1,779 Porpoise
1,569 Squid
1,276 Cobra
1,217 Anemone
526 Cicada

| Look under cap: Unwrap the experience: You lose: Now drink our product.
Coca-Cola has a promotion where you could win a PSP handheld video game
system, or the new PS2, or a PlayStation2 game. So being a sucker for
soda giveaways, I bought a bottle (plus feeling a little sick, coke
makes me feel better).
And I did not win. Under the cap it said:
DRINK
COKE
PLAY
AGAIN
Which was a little disappointing. And that's the point of this post.
It's funny how most people don't win and then have to drink their soda
all disappointed. Your very first sip from the bottle will be one
tainted with the twist of disillusionment. And people will always take
a sip of soda RIGHT after finding out that they lost. You just took the
cap off, of course you'll take a sip. So every coke contest loser will
mix the taste of coke with feelings loserville.
Would soda companies really want to people to associate the taste of
their product with defeat? There is that very sharp subconscious
undertone every time you lose and then drink their product.
