It’s true, I have been drinking High Life lately rather than Bud. Somehow the “Champagne of beers!” just makes me feel festive during the holiday party season. And there has been no shortage of parties this season. I’d better stock up on “Champagne” for New Year’s Eve too. Nothing says, “Classy!” like reaching into your bag and pulling out another tallboy at a fancy soiree.
And I says to Jim, I says, “Don’t worry!” He’s worried that I’m diluting my brand loyalty. Jim is really into branding, though usually his own. Thanks to him I walked into my second party of Saturday night with a 24 ounce can of Bud dripping down my arm. I never know if I should think it is good or bad that people now expect that I will walk into a party where everyone is drinking microbrews and pink cocktails with my can of cheap beer in my hand, but for now I’m going with good.

that aside, I don't actually care about your brand loyalty. it's *your* brand I'm worried about. you can't just toss your trademark accessory out the window. they damn near hung Paris Hilton for trading Tinkerbell in for that kinkajou monkey. I don't want to see that happen to you.
at least I sent you off with a big one.
