For some reason as I read the answers, I wonder if Cheech and Chong were consultants for naming some of these things. " Hey man that cars purple, but it needs a really cool name like I don't know, Purple Haze." No man get it right Holmes, only Mexican Americans would like that man. It's gotta be something cool and hip like Plum Crazy man, so the white people will dig it man.""You are so right man." "What about the orange color?" I don't know man but I could go for some mangos right now." "Righteous..."


LMAO!!! I just read your script in their voices for my wife!
