The great thing about it, it can be anything and as long as his name is on it, he likes it. And isn't that true for all of us? Even as an adult, when I see the key-chain name rack, I always have to see if there's a Todd...

Sooooo BUSTED! I've never seen the commercial, but I don't think I need to. I always check the racks too, but the only time I can recall finding my name was at Excalibur in Vegas a long time ago. I looked on a rack of shot glasses that had last names and family crests on them and lucked out.

I also have a lot of things from the Reed College bookstore- clothing, mugs, etc. that just say Reed on them. My old car still has a Reed window sticker on it 15 months after I sold it. The car before it had an honor student bumper sticker from Reed Jr. High. I have a Chuck Norris Karate Kommandos action figure named Reed Smith- lots of bonus points for the last name!

One of my favorite Reed things is the NY license plate REED. When I was in college, a pledge saw it on a car parked outside the field house for a hockey game, so he stole it and woke me up to present it.

The crown jewel of the collection, though, is mounted above my bed. There's a huge international law firm with my name, and one day in DC, my mom saw a guy wearing one of their softball jerseys. She talked him out of it on the spot and sent it to me for my birthday. Overnight guests always seem to get a chuckle out of it!

Me? Narcissistic and self-centered? OK- maybe a little. All right, a lot.

That's funny. ReedSmith(Pittsburgh) is defending a couple of my current cases.

That certainly got my attention! Now I'm scared that you just might really be my SS! Wtih your knowledge of me, creativity, willingness to follow through on something ridiculous if you think it's funny enough, and access to Soup, I could really be in for some torture!

If you really are my SS or have come up with a fiendish plan to send me a cookie, as long as it's not spicy, I'm sure I'll be OK.

I'm pretty sure she's not my SS, but I think there's most likely a conspiracy brewing...

1. Anything Solstice related (don't have a remote control toy Solstice yet...)
2. Chocolate (And if there are nuts or peanut butter involved, even better.)
3. DVDs (especially Sci Fi and Comic Book/Action Hero type stuff)

Hey Diana, I had these awesome cookies the other day that I absolutely fell in love with. They were the standard "peanut butter cookies with peanut butter filling" sandwich cookie, covered in milk chocolate. I think I ate the whole box in 2 days.

Do you make any of those at your plant??? If you could hook me up with a source, I'll be your best friend.

Oh sorry, total thread highjack there!
