@mypsychoticself: Not an IP lawyer but I do know of a case that may apply. I think these folks are totally protected by the First (free speech, parody etc.) however there have been cases where publisher A brings out a book by an author and then publisher B brings out an old manuscript of the same author to piggyback and then publisher A attempts to enjoin them from publishing because it causes booksellers to order fewer copies of the "legitimate" book and also causes confusion in the marketplace. I forget all the legal principles involved but I do know publisher A lost. Just remember that Palin's publisher will likely have more money to burn in the legal system than publisher B in this case.
How does the Palin name produce both beloved Python/Sir Gallahad The Chaste Michael Palin and professional jerk/ Queen Pro-Environmental Waste Sarah Palin? #sarahpalin
@Maxichamp: Love it. Gavin Rossdale and Dubya both took a monstrous, hairy dump all over any and all standards of decency and integrity in their respective fields.
So what does that make Dick Cheney, Billy Corgan or Courtney Love? #sarahpalin
She's so much more fun than Anita Bryant and Phyllis Schafly. And Ann Coulter, for that matter. I like the story that she came home from work at noon and got into her Walmart pajama set and watched wedding shows on TV. I hope it's true. I can identify with that. #sarahpalin
@Mike Byhoff: Oh, no, you dint! Joel McHale is genius. I must admit it took a coupla episodes for it to grow on me. They have some good character development goin' on -- that's the key to sitcoms. The black dude & the Indian(?) dude, sorry I don't have names down yet, have a coda on each episode that kills!
@Mike Byhoff: The spanish presentation in the first or second episode was genius. Shirley's search for nipples in this past weeks episode? It cemented my love.
@Madge Gristle: I had an Ex who once wrote a bad review of a teacher, and she called her on it in class, almost as funny as when Senor Chang did it. And the intor speech was funny as well!
Ad is a little like this White House picture of the various presidents with Carter segregated a safe distance away. They wouldn't want to catch what he's got.
@Glib and Bitchy: Bush 43 looks like a little kid forced into a family photo. "Stand in front. Stop playing with your hands. HANDS AT YOUR SIDES, Georgie. Say cheese! No, stop looking at me, look at the camera....good. OK cheese! *snap* Dammit, George, I said look at the camera and not me. *sigh* It's good enough, I need a drink."
