I agree that as an image, it could have used more work.  (Even Tom Melly 
himself said so in his image description.)  But as a pun, when you 
finally see it, it's great.

If anyone still hasn't seen the point, I don't want to explain it -- 
there's no fun in that.  :-)    I'll just say:  look at the label, look 
at the box, think about the topic.  'Nuff said (I hope).  ;-)

Just in case someone hasn't seen it:  IRTC Jan-Feb '05, topic:  Out of 
Place.  http://www.irtc.org/ftp/pub/stills/2005-02-28/tm_oop.jpg
