Simple comparison

[johnboyjjb]

I noticed a Torjan condom commercial the other day and started wondering where they got the name. The most famous trojan figure was the the horse. Could they really be comparing themselves to a Trojan horse? Let\'s see:

False sense of security/victory
Ability to get past the outer defenses
A little hole causes a lot of trouble
You will find a man inside walls which should have been impregnable
That is the end of life as you know it . . .

Just wonder what genius in marketing thought this one up.

Maybe they were actually calling it after the Trojans for their crafty way of getting in?

And after this summer the most famous figure in the Trojan war will be ....Brad Pitt. lol

You do know it was the Greeks who got in using the Trojan horse?

What I want to know is whether they\'ll break from the Homeric tradition and kill Odysseus, Sean Bean is cast as him after all!

I\'m surprised
