Strange Business Names

As I walk to my favorite neighborhood yoga studio I pass a business called "Good Morning Clinic," musical theater geek that I am I immediately start singing the "Good Morning" song featured in Singing in the Rain. Then I notice the prominently placed list of services, the top offering is a colonic. Somehow the idea of warm water being injected into that particular orifice by a complete stranger in the name of detoxification doesn't make me think "Good Morning" . . . then there is this newly formed connection between Gene Kelly and derrieres and I wish that I could scrub my mind out with soap. Needless to say I now walk a different route to the studio and have no plans to see Singing in the Rain.
