Spike's Bitches 46: Don't I get a cookie?  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Well shit. Isn't Bon Bon a tradmark specialist? If she is not the right kind of IP lawyer for you, or not currently in practice, she can probably direct you to someone.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

What?! Barb, who...how? WHAT?

Ok, can't talk about it, I see. But I just Googled you, and you alone turned up on the first 3 google pages?!

All is well that ends in pizza.

Four excellent questions. Well, three, but then it bears repeating.

So, since when are UPS and USPS working together?

I ordered some shirts via a Big man's site online, and chose regular shipping.

The tracking number arrived via email yesterday, so I checked tonight.

Imagine my surprise when the latest entry was in my own town, about noon today with the phrase "Tendered to Local Post Office"

WTH?

So I looked it up in help, and here's what it says:

Tendered to Local Post Office
UPS has given the package to the U.S. Postal Service, who will make the final delivery. This contractual service may require an additional day for delivery.

This is weird.

Am I on the other side of the Fringe barrier?

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

Super horray For ND being home! Welcome home dude!

Bonnie, how are you doing over there? Looking forward to pixels saying you are good. And sending tons of vibes your way.

Barb... huh? WTF?

ION- For the 3rd day in a row, the elevator in my building is STILL out of order. @@ Dude! I need to do shopping and laundry. I need that working!

“Not dead yet!”

It has to do with the first name of my pen name. And the fact that my new website features it prominently. And there's another writer with the same first name who has taken umbrage. And is tossing around words like trademark and infringement and the like because she's an attorney and thinks that's gonna scare me.

Barb, go medieval on her ass!

ION- it looks like the economy is causing changes in my pension plan. It seems they are pulling another 2.5% out of our paycheck to keep the pension fund solvent. Which means 2.5% cut in take home.

USPS has to go to all the houses, UPS can be picky.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

That sounds utterly insane, Barb. I hope it isn't too much of a nuisance.
