For the benefit of my audience who doesn’t reside in Nebraska, I thought this story would give you a chuckle (I couldn’t find it anywhere on Google News… but there might be a reason for that…).

In the Omaha area there’s a small chain of restaurants (3 or so) called King Kong, a restaurant that sells large burgers and gyros, among other things. Apparently, King Kong has copyrighted any and all use of “King Kong” as it relates to talking about or promoting a restaurant, so they’re suing Burger King over their new “Kong-Sized whopper.”

Maybe I should trademark using King Kong to promote my website. Then I could say you’d get some Kong-sized design skills if you hire me… but that’s pretty scary. The only thing scarier, in fact, is waking up next to the King.
