Summary: 

I don't read this newsgroup regularly (can't stand it), but maybe this hasn't
turned up yet....

When I lived in Sydney (Aus.) in the early 70's there was a well-established
moving company named Green & Young.  Their slogan was, "Our experience is your
guarantee."  I guess they got it.

There was also an exterminating company by the name of Powell.  Their trucks
showed a bug lying on its back saying, "I've been Powellized."  Another
exterminating outfit used the same picture and the slogan, "I've been
Rentokilled."  I guess they didn't get it.
