Did Mr. Ingrisano actually create and copyright a particular font used with his trademarked symbol or does his trademark apply to any use of that symbol followed by a period? Is the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office testing how thin the ice

I don't reckon we here in the U.S. would ever cotton to such a pro-shiftless social policy. Smacks of intellectualism to me. Even of Communism, and you know down what slippery path that "ism" can lead: It was Joe Stalin'

"listed my job title as 'oner'" An obvious construction error. Just as one who plays piano isn't called a "pianoer", the account manager must have meant "onanist". Did you finally strike him in the face with your gloves?

The MPAA, RIAA, and their overseas counterparts are ratcheting up the contempt with which they are viewed by society. DIY gravediggers they are.

"UMG is seeking maximum damages of up to $150,000 per infringement from Grooveshark, which could mean more than a $15 billion payout if the lawsuit is successful." If the RIAA/MPAA should rule our world, then $15 billion should be the price
