I thought it was pretty goofy when Merkins started called fries Freedom Fries.

I bought some Danish beer the other day. I intend to buy some Danish Cookies
and some Danish Blue Cheese when I go shopping today.

The other day I was on my way to an appointment and had to stop for some gas. I
went to the new self serve station around the corner from my doctor's office.
When I went in to pay I discovered that it is run by Moslems. I won't be
taking any more business there.
