The story I heard was that Adobe's Type 1 font encoding [1] used obscure names like BlueValues, OtherBlues, FamilyBlues, FamilyOtherBlues, BlueScale, BlueShift, and BlueFuzz, so that Adobe employees could discuss their proprietary font hinting algorithms in public while they were in line for burritos at La Costeña [2]. That way nobody from Apple or Sun or SGI who was standing in line next to them could understand what they were talking about.
Yes THAT World Famous La Costeña: Guiness Record Holder for the World's Largest Burrito! [3] On May 3rd, 1997 La Costeña of Mountain View, California created the world's largest burrito. The burrito weighed in at 4,456.3 pounds and was measured at 3,578 feet long. It was created at Rengstorff Park in Mountain View.
