Ohhhh, please stay together and call yourselves 'Eaton Hearl Inc.'
I propose that Mr. Eaton's successor be named Mr. InstantGastrointestinalDistress.
I guess Mr. MmmThatTastesGoodInMyBelly was unavailable?
It'll be the first time that Taco Bell is involved in an instance of "Eaton" *following* "Hearl", so to speak.
It's supposed to be spelled "Hurl".
yes i can totally see how this is consumer news.

I second that motion.
@Rectilinear Propagation: I second that request

Hearl & Eaton - Bulimia counselors.
VP of Marketing, Mr. Choak, was unavailable for comment.
@LeJerque: Nice!
@num1skeptic: Oh. My bad. It's difficult to detect sarcasm (or the lack thereof) within the Intertubes.
