premium blend

Okay, I know Ohmtastic is a pseudo-word...the name was inspired by a friend (thanks JGG!) who used it to describe anything that was hip and funky and we love it around here.

At the same time, I can't help notice that the proliferation of pseudo-blended-quasi-cool names has reached epic proportions. Please don't blame us...we think it has something to do with the iPod.

Here's a random sampling:

THE TASTICS

Egotastic / Comcastic / Scraptastic / Hamtastic

THE LICIOUS'

eLicious / Tealicious / Soylicious / Font-a-licious

THE TABLOIDS

Bennifer / Brangelina / TomKat

Update: After some serious sleuthing it seems the moniker-mingling trend can be traced back to my high school classmate Carolyn, who emblazoned the trivet she made in home economics with the word Jaylen...the name she chose for her theoretical first-born with her then-boyfriend Jason. You go girl! Demand royalties!!
