We definitely need to hire der rock-pop party band guys for the next crawl. I don't care what it costs to fly them over here.
All in favour, say ja!

"With the allure of a Cezanne and the intrigue of a Picasso, Zazz captivates the senses. Its fluid curves and soothing design practice the unique skill of attracting attention - unobtrusively. But the beauty of Zazz goes deep beneath the canvas. Designed for general office use, Zazz is compelling comfort. "

Now there you go, how about that for some good ad copy!
This cries out for being translated into Japanese Engrish!

A good way to approximate Engrish is to enter something into Altavist's Babelfish, translate from English to German (or Spanish or French) then back again. This used to work great but I think they've improved their translation, so this one I went from English to Spanish to German and back to English again. Voila.
(file it under: things nerdy writers know)
"with the airs of a Cezanne and of plots a Picasso, Zazz captivates felt. Its curves of the liquid and the project, which are reassuring, practice the original ability to excite the attention - unobtrusively. But the beauty of Zazz goes deeply down from the canvas. Projected for the general use of the office, Zazz is the compelling comfort "

Jon Stewart using ZAZZ?!?!?
"The Daily Show: September 26, 2005
Posted Sep 27, 2005, 7:51 AM ET by Annie Wu
Filed under: Comedy, OpEd, Late Night, Cable, The Daily Show
Welcome to another week of The Daily Show. Tonight's episode is all hurricane -- except for the commericals. Those can be regarded as the eye of the hurricane show. Alright, Katrina was absolutely crazy with devastation, whereas Rita was just like all other sequels: crappy. "There was damage... but where was the zazz?" Jon Stewart asks. It was only a pussy-ish Category 3. C'mon, God. You've got to step it up a little -- Don't hurt me."
In this context it seems more like he is using it more as a shortened "pizazz" than the zazz as we know it.

Jon Stewart used it again a few more times the other day ... it's starting to slip into his normal vocabulary. He's been infected.

Personally, every time I hear or see the word ZAZZ (oh man, there it is again) I get nauseous... am I the only one out there?
