Memo to Echowood and all others who associate with people named Lindsey:
From this day forth, the name Lindsay can no longer be used in books, movies, TV shows or commercials.
Or ever.
That's because Lindsay Lohan believes any mention of her first name, no matter how innocuous or tangential, is a reference to her.
Case in point. Ms. Lohan has sued E*Trade for $100 million, claiming the "Lindsey" mentioned in their Super Bowl spot was a dig at her and NOT derived from a member of the ad agency account team named Lindsey.
Or a reference to a very popular American female name.
Lohan's lawyer, Stephanie Ovadia, said the actress has the same single-name recognition as Oprah or Madonna. (Link)
And she's right.
Except when I hear the name Lindsay, I immediately think of Lindsay Wagner and the old Governor Lindsay of NY. But I'm older than 21 so that's the "Lindsay's" I relate to.
Sue me.
Hey, it wouldn't be the dumbest thing she's ever done.
Here's the controversial spot.
"Milkaholic Lindsay." Yeah, that's Lohan already.

PS, these people should watch out, Lindsay and her lawyer may go after them next.

If I know anything about "Lindsays" it's that they can't wait to get their hands on other people's well-earned money. Also, they do a lot of coke.
Happily, my girlfriend spells her name "Lindsey" while Ms. Lohan spells her with an "a". Still, they're both greedy whores.
The ONLY possible way I can think of the reference to "Milkaholic Lindsey" to that hack actress is from her lesbian escapade.
Hey Lohan - every hear of the band Fleetwood Mac?
Item 1: John V. Lindsay was never governor, only Mayor of NYC.
The second Lindsay I think of is George Lindsay, aka "Goober" on the Andy Griffith show. Under Ms. Lohan's theory, she should be paying him .
Right now E*Trade is high-fiving around the office for the kind of publicity you can't buy.
