Friday night Monica and I watched the Clippers play the Durham Bulls (COL 8 12 2, DUR 9 11 0). After giving the correct answer to a question, a contestant selected from the crowd was presented with an "Awesome baseball cap" prominently featuring the logo of a local boat merchant. I was left worrying about the state of the American strategic adjective supply. If we have become so wasteful that we will use one of our most powerful positive adjectives to describe swag I fear our children will inherit a world where the only option left open for disambiguation is the use of foreign adjectives, likely imported from countries that don't share our values.
