Can't make this stuff up...

So, here at the PR firm where I work...this email was sent to our art director:

To: Art Director

From: President & CEO of PR Firm

RE: Logo Design

Client X really likes the logo of this international law firm. Can you check it out? Let me know what you think.

Here's their website: www.mofo.com

Thanks!

Really??? Come on now Morrison Foerester! Could you not go with a web address like morrisonfoerester.com or was that too obvious? Maybe that url was already taken? I guess you were afraid no one would remember the spelling of Foerester...I get it, you wanted your website to be memorable. Well, you succeeded international law firm! Memorable it is.

According to mofo.com...
Morrison Foerester is distinguished by its unsurpassed expertise in finance, life sciences, and technology, legendary litigation skills, and an unrivaled reach across the Pacific Rim, particularly in Japan and China.

Mofo, you left one important distinction off the list. Your company's web address qualifies your firm as experts in figures of speech, and more specifically, double entendre. So, here's to the mofos! Thanks for the laugh.
