My sister told me last night that her word of the week is “tomfoolery.” She was telling me that she had just learned that it was all one word; for some reason she had thought it was two words. That surprised me, but I agreed it was a fun word. So when I saw an article about website hosting by a company called Fat Cow I just had to laugh. I wondered who in the world would think of such a silly name?

Thinking about it, I wondered if they were thinking that this “Fat Cow” company would be a “cash cow” for them. And I wondered why they didn’t just name the company Cash Cow. Maybe someone else already took that name. Anyway, this piqued my interest and I started clicking around and found a story about how this Fat Cow company was striving to make it’s company as ecologically friendly as possible. That made me think of how much fun they could have with an internal newsletter about the company with the headline reading “greener pastures for Fat Cow.”

I’d like to think it would be fun to work for a company that has a sense of humor like that.
