What is the funniest way you have seen 'PostgreSQL' written?

Postgres and Postgre are a common way to say PostgreSQL...and they are
not really funny either. But check this out: 'PosteGres' as in
http://slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=100466&cid=8567307 (as a side note,
this particular comment is also a pretty fun reading by itself).

I can already supplement the list with PostSQL (
http://yro.slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=100352&cid=8551597 ). I wonder
if PostgreSQL is PostSQL then is MySQL PreSQL?

I saw a PHP book once with a whole chapter on using PHP with
PostgreSQLSQL.
