   Yep.   
      
   Trivia: the real Roush is a division of Pillsbury, who set up Roush.com to   
   redirect to the main Pillsbury site. Soon after the episode aired, however,   
   visitors to Roush.com were greeted by an image of the Pillsbury Doughboy,   
   looking sinister and smoking a cigarette, with the headline "Believe the   
   Pie." I wish I had a copy of that page, because it was one of the funniest   
   things I've ever seen. I love it when a corporation shows a sense of humor.
