Porsche taking a page out of the Monster

[GO-NAD!]

I just don't understand how anybody can trademark any common word and call it their own?? I can understand it if the word is associated with a specific product and another company started to make the same product with the same name. Otherwise, I don't know why a judge wouldn't immediately through the case out the window. Along with the lawyers...

My apologies to any lawyers whose feelings I may have hurt...

No kidding. When I hear "Cayman," and I actually think of "Caiman" (the crocodile). When I hear "virgin," I don't think of the airlines. When I hear "monster," I don't think of A/V equipment.

This smells like a publicity stunt for both companies.

I would've thought advertising would be cheaper...

But, maybe Crocs wants to give the impression that their footware is very sporting and will make you look faster.

And, maybe Porsche wants people to get the idea that their car is as comfortable as an old shoe. A smelly, ugly shoe. Hmmm, somehow I don't think Porsche thought this through....

Maybe the owner of Porsche just hates those shoes. He's trying to help us.

In that case, I hope Porsche wins!

This doesn't seem to be a problem in NYC where the Virgin's Day parade was cancelled because one girl was sick and the other didn't want to march without her friend.

I didn't think there were that many there You are killing me

Oh, well then go buy your GM Denali and watch the bits and pieces fall off it.
