"our: of or relating to us or ourselves or ourself especially as possessors or possessor, agent or agents, or objects or object of an action"

http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/our

I suppose you could argue that it depends what "is" means, but when you get to that level, you know you're dealing with slippery deceivers - just like Alonzo Pierce and his paid help, in fact.


I suppose one could argue the meaning of "is", but "is" wouldn't be relevant.

Agent would....

Object would...

Thanks for the Webster link.

WILL indicated forward looking statements, as far as I'm concerned. And "our" doesn't necessarily mean ownership. If they have exclusive rights to import and distribute than it makes sense they would use the word "our" when talking about these brands. I work in the logistics field and when I say "OUR" customers it does not mean that we own them...

So I guess OUR BRANDS means the company OWNS THEM.

So do they own these http://www.diageo.com/en-ie/ourbrands/pages/default.aspx
