Oh, this story isn't satire. It is 100% for real. Found it on the Brevard County Manatees website.

We passed countless BP stations on our trip from FL to CT. Most of them were pretty empty (ie people not pumping gas there, but other stations were busy). I realize this is anecdotal “evidence”, but it sure looked like a boycott of BP was/is underway to us...

In my experience, HR isn’t much better than BP... ;-P

OMG... renaming batting practice (BP) to "hitting rehearsal"?! Good grief! I predict that stupid term will never stick... LOL

Thought you and Zelig would appreciate this story. LOL!

Yes, thank you! Sorry for the numerous pings here... just catching up. ;-)

Unbelievable.
