One day not too long ago, Joe Regelski, a newsperson for local radio
station KQAK, mentioned on the air that he liked Safeway's Cragmont
Cola.  Joe quickly received three cases of the cola in the mail.  KQAK
D.J. Alex Bennett thought about this for a while.  Then he mentioned it
on the air, and added "Boy, I sure love those
Macintosh computers."

Next thing Bennett knew, a large package arrived.  The return address
was Apple Computer.  Bennett talked to his boss, his lawyers, and the
FCC.  No one could figure out any reason he couldn't accept it.  So he
ripped open the box.

Inside were four six-packs of Cragmont Cola!
