> Err, (Paul) Newmann's Own Salad Dressing?

   Now I'm confused, why does Paul Newmann have salad dressing. Isn't he an
   actor?

He put a bunch of his money into a salad dressing company; the profits
all go to the Scott Newmann foundation (in memory of his son, who died
very young -- I think of a drug overdose).

   Proper British humour about wideboys, cortinas and posers, now that makes
   more sense.

I was always told ``British humour'' was an oxymoron :)
