Clever Company Names

Pediatric Dentistry Dr. Payne

I see he has taken his name off the sign since the first time I saw it, I wonder why. Gerry :-)} London, Canada

Laundry next to a dam in wisc. "best laundry by a dam site"

The censor let this one slip through, and 1000 or perhaps 10,000 plates having the initials NFG xxxx were issued in BC, Canada a few years back. For the young folks, it's an acronym for "doesn't work very well".. /mark

There's a site having pointers to a large array of canonical lists, such as fulldeckisms, blonde jokes, clinton jokes, etc.

If someone has some web space and some inclination, I'm sure a site for company names would be quickly listed.... / mark

Mark:

There are a bunch of Washington plates with the initials BFD xxx. Always get a chuckle when I see one. When slang changed a couple decades back, they had to replace all the GAY xxx plates because people and their cars were getting abused.

They're pretty good about catching slang in personality plates, but

3M TA3 got through (think about seeing it in your rear view mirror :-).

Don't know about Marquette, but University of Colorado has (or had a decade back) the Albert Packer Grill in the student union building. And, yes, it has pictures from the massacre hung on the walls. That happened in western Colorado, after all. As I remember, their various burgers are named for the victims.

Jim

I do hope one of us is compiling a list of these.

For many years the ficticious law firm of Dewey Cheetham & Howe had its name posted on a third floor window of a building right smack in the busiest part of Harvard Square, in Cambridge, Massachusetts.

I've read that NPR's "Car Talk" radio show registered that name as a trademark.

And, didja know that both Tom & Ray Magliozzi, the brothers who host "Car Talk" are fellow alumni of mine from "that other" good school in Cambridge?

In Westland, MI there is a place: "My Brother's Bar"
