It's Pronounced "FOO-KOO-DOH-MAY," People!

New Jersey is contemplating selling the naming rights to their Turnpike rest areas. As a New Yorker, that's where I spend a good amount of time and money while passing through Jersey on my way to the rest of the US, so I'll be interested to see what happens. Let's hope they make them long-term contracts, though, to avoid confusion in meeting up with people, etc. Say, this guy's got plenty of new American money if he's looking for a place to spend it and increase his name recognition.....

(For those readers who don't share my pubescent sense of humor, I'll give a hint: after Mr. Fukudome hit a pinch-hit home run in the World Baseball Classic, some American fans started to chant his name in four, very distinctive syllables.)

I foresee many suspensions in Bristol CT next year.

Will they merge the names like the Bowl games? The Miller Molly Pitcher Rest Stop. The Viagra Vince Lombardi?

I've been to the Howard Stern rest stop. I think it's great.
