Of all the low down, dirty, rotten...

Say that you're a businessman and are looking to make a quick buck.  You want to join the ranks of the alcohol producers in America and you're looking for a new concept.  What to name it?  Hmm...

Jackass Boss:Give me a hot-button issue...any hot button issue...one that everyone in America knows about. 

Soul-less ad man:Hey boss, how about that hurricane that devastated the gulf coast and killed a whole slough of people...

Boss: What about it...you want to donate a bunch of liquor to a bunch of poor minorities who lost their homes?

Soul-less Ad man:  No we can name a drink after the hurricane...

Boss: That's so wrong...so wrong it just might work...now we need a soul-sucking slogan that will help us sell our devil hooch.

Ad man:  hmm...let's see...Katrina...it'll clear the ghettos before the hangover is done?

Boss:  No...to subtle...how about something a little more etherial.  We'll put a picture of the satellite image on the label and then something catchy.

Ad man: Let me brainstorm...ha ha storm...get wrecked like a category 4...

Boss:No

Ad man: Get Blown Away

Boss: hmm...nah

Ad man: The eye of the storm.

Boss:  C'mon that sucks...

Ad man: Floods your senses like broken Levees in New Orleans...

No...that's too funny.  We need something serious.  Like...Get Blown Away...

Ad man: I already...no...that's great...
