I avoid anything that says hallal, has writing in squiggly indecipherable script, is owned by someone maned Mo, or identifies as being from or akin to stuff from countries that contain a populace the majority of whom consider Mo to be a prophet..

On another note, I am looking for someone to blame. I was fine at church yesterday but as the day progressed I began feeling more and more under the crud. Since I haven't been around Tax Chick I can't blame her younguns for transferring the crud they were sporting last week or whenever.

Prolly can blame one of the grandkids since they were here over the weekend. Or maybe I can blame Son #2. But so far no typsos have shown up so that's probably out.

Anyway, I now have a case of some flavor of respiratory nasal fevery ague. And depleting my stash of Nose Wiping Supplies commonly but incorrectly and illegally called Kleenex®. Kleenex® is a registered brand name that Kimberly Clark defends so as to not allow the brand name to lapse into public domain and become generic.

Such a fate befell Otis Elevator Company and their trademark 'Escalator'. When they finally decided to enforce their trademark it was ruled that 'Escalator' had become genericized. So Otis may have it registered but cannot keep anyone else from making the product and naming it thus..

I need another Nose Wiping Paper Product commonly but incorrectly and illegally called Kleenex®..

“I am looking for someone to blame. I was fine at church yesterday...”

That sounds a little to quick.
Go back three or four days....there is the culprit.
