Today I was hanging out at Joel's, reading his US Weekly when I came across an advertisement for a new birth control pill called YAZ. The wheels in my head immediately started turning. "It's called YAZ, Joel. YAZ!" Joel started laughing hysterically and I immediately scrolled down to Y in iTunes, clicking play on the song Situation, by the 80's band Yaz.

click the play button above. then, in a deep announcer voice imagine:

"YAZ is 99% effective at preventing pregnancy when taken as directed. YAZ also helps your hormone levels stay even! And YAZ is made with the unique hormone, drsp!

YAZ can also help give you shorter, lighter periods! YAZ can help regulate your cycle! And YAZ can reduce cramps!

So talk to your doctor about YAZ!"

...I can already imagine a woman sitting in a doctor's office in a white paper gown. "So, um, what did you think of their '82 album, Upstairs at Eric's?"
