Good ideas that I’ve never used (1 of many)

www.inkthinkerblog.com — When I was 15 or 16, I worked at a street fair in a predominantly Latino neighborhood in urban New Jersey. (My best friend’s mom owned a temporary tattoo booth and a hair wrap booth, and she gave me like $8/hour to help her out at local events. It was pretty sweet.) On my lunch break, I wandered into a convenience store that had a counter display of prophylactics on a little turning rack. Their name? “Fiesta word-for-prophylactic-that-starts-with-a-c-but-I-don’t-want-to-use-it-just-in-case.” After I stopped laughing, I came up with a great slogan:

Fiesta You-Know-What: Put a Party in Your Pants

Alas, I have never done anything with this brilliant marketing slogan.
