I have been considering trademarking the trademark. That way I could apply it to the cliches in my writing and make them look a little snazzier, while the competition continues to wallow in its own unmarked mediocrity. A writer will has to everything he can these days to get that telling competitive edge(TM)!
Trademarking the trademark? Not only does that have a Cosmo Kramer/coffee table book kind of brilliance to it, but I cannot wait to see corporate legal departments try to deal with that.

i read the london guy has made millions by trademarking the smiley face, which makes it a pretty smart legal action, in my opinion.
in wal-mart's case, i've always viewed it as the stupidest ad icon ever.
80 countries. 80 countries have allowed Smileyworld to trademark what is, in reality, a public domain icon. :)
(That was my first use of an emoticon ever!)
