Because I am twelve

My favorite piece of swag from the INTA annual meeting:





Had a great time in Boston and only regret that I couldn’t join the gang at Meet the Bloggers.  When you’re one half of a two trademark lawyer couple, there are necessary tradeoffs.  Next year in San Francisco!

One toke over the line . . .


I don’t think that even the parody defense will save the “420 Football League,” whose goal, as it were, is that players take a bong hit, hold it as long as possible, time themselves, and advance the ball [?] one yard for every second the hit is held.

Much as I enjoy criticizing frivolous trademark claims, I have to admit that this one pretty much hits the dilution by tarnishment nail squarely on the head.  Thanks to TMZ for the tip.  See?  There is value in reading gossip sites!
