Will there be a DJ?

Going by recent threads I'm sure someone has already stolen the name and entire premise, then had AI write the story for them.

In football one of the refs is called the back judge and at one point-they may have changed, I gave it up a few years ago, used to run around with BJ on their back.

Now there's a cease-and-desist letter in the making.

This company is almost as good:

Apparently the company started in Mexico City, and someone didn't think about the English translation. Their excuse - ah, reasoning - is explained on this page:

I guess they're too far into it to change it now. I first saw their products at a local Dollar General, and I got a good chuckle out of it. Imagine having them on your resume. But, yeah, it does sound like something from the Story Ideas board.

One of their subsidiaries is Sara Lee, which has a factory/bakery in the town I live in. For about three months a couple of years ago, i seemed to get stuck in traffic behind one of their delivery trucks while on my way to work almost every day. It never failed to make me laugh, and I even got the start of a story out of it, but never wrote it down.

Yes, they have a whole bunch of brands that I think were probably independent companies once. But they sell quite a few things under their own name. Surely they must have figured out long ago what it means, but they seem pretty proud of it. I feel sorry for that woman (and the others) who have to have the Bimbo name patch on their shirts.

For years we had a can in our pantry I kept especially because of the warning on the can: "If swollen discard before it bursts." The product? Spotted Dick sponge pudding.

Many years ago, I lived in El Cerrito, Calif. On San Pablo Avenue in Richmond, the town next door, I frequently drove by the office of Dick Held insurance brokers.

Sara Lee's banana cream pies are exquisite.

Our town had a small Sara Lee bakery right in the middle of an older residential neighborhood. Employees would "borrow" freshly baked pies and place them onto open windowsills to cool, so they eat them at break times. Neighborhood kids all knew this and would occasionally pilfer the hot pies.

I had a co-worker, who had a crazy-redhead wife who complained to the town council about the smell of the pies wafting into their house. Someone posts about Sara Lee and this is what pops into my memory.
