"In a stunning response to Cisco's purchase of Nabisco, Juniper Networks 
has rapidly countered this foray into cross-marketing by quickly snapping 
up food conglomerate General Mills. In a statement released by early this 
afternoon, Juniper Networks founder Pradeep Sindhu points out, 'It's no 
surprise Cisco bought a company renowned for snack foods, look at their 
entire product lineup. Garbage in, garbage out. Keep an eye out for our 
seriously robust line of Cheerio routers. All the fiber you can handle!'"
