Premium Problem
I recently saw a billboard for a local State Farm agent. It had a tag line:
“Premium Service without Premium Price”Does that mean the insurance is free?
Can I get the service without paying any premiums at all?
Did someone in the marketing department just have a pun backfire?Technorati Tags: Ike Pigott, Occam’s RazR, insurance, [...]

I saw a headline today, referring to the Eliot Spitzer saga:
The Spitzer Scandal: Lust Plus Pride
Then, I recalled seeing this attempt to explain the Seven Deadly Sins (from Jessica Hagy):According to Jessica’s chart, Lust + Pride = Trophy Wife.
So, using the Associative Property of Addition, we can see that:
The Spitzer Scandal = Trophy Wife.
