My husband once asked me to remember the name of band for him so he could look for their CD when we were in the store. I remembered it as "
Mud Puppies" and surprisingly, they didn't have it.
(We've been together long enough that it didn't take much effort for him to convert "Mud Puppies" to "Puddle of Mudd" and they really didn't have it.

On topic, I have been asked if my Sony is a Kindle, but I figure it's like Kleenex and I don't fuss. I simply say that it is not actually a Kindle, but is the same type of device. I don't think anyone has ever continued to think of it as a Kindle, although I've noticed that people who have Kindles themselves, will still call mine a Kindle, because they forget my reader is a different brand from theirs.
