So I'm reading the Wikipedia entry on Marion Barry and discover there's a blackberry cultivar called the marionberry.

ME: So you know Marion Barry, the mayor of Washington, D.C.?
MELISSA: Yeah?
ME: So there's a blackberry named the marionberry. It's from 1956, though, so it wasn't named after him.
MELISSA: 1956?
ME: Yep.
MELISSA: They had blackberries in 1956?
ME: Blackberries? Uh, yeah.
MELISSA: No way.
ME: You big geek. I'm not talking about the phones. I'm talking about actual blackberries.
MELISSA: You wait until you have a BlackBerry.

I'm no Blackberry owner, but I admit that I was halfway through that post before I started thinking about blackberry as food.
