And lest you think that all my "little gray cells" have been thinking of nothing but politics (e.g. my previous entry), consider the following:
I saw this television commercial over the weekend that was a parody of a famous sequence from the Dudley Moore/Bo Derek film "10". In it, two people run toward each other on a beach only to turn around and head back the way they came when each sees how ugly the other is (they call this "3"). After this sequence, the commercial ends with the tag line "Some things aren't as good as the original. Diet Dr. Pepper tastes more like original Dr. Pepper".
This always leaves me with a question: Diet Dr. Pepper tastes more like original Dr. Pepper than what?
Oh, grammarian me.
