Something that arrived in Bank of America's inbox a couple of days ago ......
By way of introduction, Universal Music Publishing International B.V. and Universal – PolyGram International Publishing, Inc. (collectively, “Universal”) are the exclusive publisher and administrator, respectively, for the world excluding the United Kingdom and Ireland, of all musical compositions to the extent written, owned and/or controlled by Paul Hewson p/k/a “Bono,” Dave Evans p/k/a “The Edge,” Adam Clayton and Larry Mullen, Jr., collectively p/k/a “U2,” including, without limitation, the musical composition entitled “One” (the “Composition”).
It has come to Universal's attention that Bank of America, N.A. (“BA”) has created a derivative work of the Composition to promote BA's business and, in connection therewith, BA has publicly performed, synchronized, reproduced and distributed the Composition during BA business meetings and in timed relation with a video that is available to the public on at least two (2) Internet Web Sites...
At least two? Maybe a slight underestimate there.
Guess Bono didn't get the joke :) And here's me thinking we're all One.
Can a lawyer cease and desist a cease and desist? I have no idea, but I guess we'll find out.
Sure, but they must first roll a sanity check.

If you find yourself hitting the snooze button and falling asleep again, maybe you need the Flying Alarm Clock.
You'll have to get up when this little baby starts, because it takes off and flies round the room, making a really annoying noise like a mosquito, so you'll have to find it first, before you can turn it off. Even if you hit the snooze button, it will take off again, so it will undoubtedly get you out of bed, though of course it might smash the place up a bit before you catch it, and if you sleep with the windows open you might find yourself running round the garden in your jimjams (no way to wake up) and may frighten the neighbourhood dogs.
Jellio said something about an encore on the post about video editor extraordinaire Lasse Gjertsen. It may be a while before he has another video ready, but here’s one he created last year called Hyperactive.
Just heard Joe Namath plugging his new book on ESPN Radio. "I do feel like there's a lack of discipline in society." Let's go back a few years:
And we all know all about Dustin Diamond's disturbing new sex tape. Let's go back to a 2002 interview he gave to The Onion A.V. Club (as written in Chuck Klosterman's Sex, Drugs & Cocoa Puffs). When asked about Showgirls, here's what Screech said:
"I wouldn't see why you'd want to go so far afield to change your image that you'd take a role so demanding or drastic as that. It pretty much was just the exploitation of a Saturday morning icon, I feel. I don't think that the movie had any more substance than, 'Hey, we should go check it out to see the girl from Saved by the Bell naked!' That's pretty much what everyone went to the theater to see."
I refuse to subject you to a link to said sex tape.

- Got a relative who's a huge dork, and you don't know what to get them for Christmas? Tada!
- What's it worth for a site to get mentioned on RocketBoom. Maybe something like $516.00?
- Words cannot describe the best Steve Colbert today's word segment, ever. So just watch.
- I'm Morpheus, I'm Sparticus, I'm the dude, I'm Batman, I'm Rick James, Bitch, and I'm Ed Bradley.
- And I'm no huge Bobby Knight fan, but a slap on the chin is no big deal. Just let the coach coach.
