Yes, there apparently is a real air conditioning company in Fairfax, VA. called "Central Services." When I first saw these trucks about a month ago, it took me a few minutes to stop laughing and take this picture. I wonder how good they are at installing ductwork...I wouldn't normally post this, but it's just too funny not to share.
(For those who don't get this, I recommend watching the film "Brazil." You'll understand soon enough.)

Very Funny. I wonder if DiNero is a silent partner . . . .

Hmm...I think the dragon is sleeping, Scott.

The dragon is awake. If anyone is asleep, it is our "friends" at Network Solutions (aka "the InterNIC"), who, as it happens, bear a surprising resemblance to the Central Services employees with respect to the "quality" of their service.

"We do the work, you do the pleasure!"In Stockton, CA, where I sometimes make trips to for thrift-store pillaging, there is a supermarket called S-Mart, the same name as the store "Ash" worked at in "Army of Darkness". "Shop Smart- Shop S-Mart!"

Sorry, I fear I'm one of the ones who doesn't get it. But I'll dig out Brazil and that'll be my movie for tonite.
