Also, a friend of mine started a company that was
a holding company,
owning retail outlets with various names. But the name of the holding
company is "New Directions". I told him he had better be very careful
with his 'diction' when he said the name. He looked puzzled for a
moment, and then turned white as a sheet. Apparently, he'd never made
the connection before. Most amusing.
