ALPHABET SOUP

I spent the afternoon with some good friends, one of whom works for a certain large communications company. I won't say the company's name, but will say that apparently it has been going through some sort of identity crisis. It keeps changing its name. On the other hand, the frequent name changes could be attempts to avoid creditors, or maybe its ducking alimony payments to former spouses.

Anyway, one of its subsidiaries went through its own name change this weekend. This was an event so huge that Stephen Colbert had to explain it for us.
