JetBlue names all of its jets with a variant of "blue" in the title. Blue Suede Shoes. Bright Lights, Blue City. The Name is Blue. JetBlue. If You Can Read This, You're Too Blue Close.
Is there a plane named Pepsi Blue?

I didn't know that they gave all their planes adorable names, so I was a little disturbed when I saw it while waiting to board. But then my anti-anxiety pills kicked in and I just giggled.

Do we care because this website is also blue? If so... maybe this should have gone in metatalk?
I mean, this is just dumb marketing gimmick. There isn't really anything 'interesting' about it.
Maybe Matt could get an endorsement or something. Like a flash video overlay of a plane flying across the screen or something. I block ads everywhere, so it's not like it would affect me
