On The End of an Era?

Posted on November 12 at 2:52 p.m. ( Suggest removal )

A few years back my wife and I were watching our two nieces for a weekend. The youngest was quickly approaching three and still on the Binky. Ten minutes after her sister left my wife cut the end of the Binky off and left the big end with the handle where she could find it. The little one walked up whimpering and repeating "bwoke?" My wife told her yes it is and she was a big girl and didn't need it. In 48 hours she solved what her sister had tried six months to do.

"I am still wondering the story of the mural on the side of a building that is off milwuakee st to the right if youre traveling down.....

It reminds me of that old country song....

Don't forget curling. The curling club is having an Open House Saturday 12:00-4:00 at the fairgrounds Blackhawk Center. Olympian Debbie McCormick will be there.

Darts and bowling aren't really WINTER sports when comparing to hockey, skiing and curling.

On Wis. sidelines new slogan, 'Live like you mean it'

From the Chicago Tribune-"The presentation listed several active, pending or abandoned federal trademarks covering the term. The most notable is held by Scripps Networks, owner of the Food Network and HGTV. The company registered the phrase in 2001 and used it as the tagline for its Fine Living Network, which focuses on food, drink and travel.

The presentation noted Scripps Networks’ trademark remains active, but the company is no longer using the phrase. If Scripps Networks revived the phrase, it could be get “some considerable exposure” given the company’s extensive media holdings, the marketing firm warned.

****
$57,000 for a trademarked slogan with "some considerable exposure" to a potential suite on the matter. It must be a Diamond Jim cronie or perhaps it was approved by his legal council who was licensed to practice law in Wisconsin.
