Where No Geek Has Gone Before

April 15th, 2009 by Lee

While shopping at the Taj Ma-H.E.B. this evening (picking up tomorrow’s Thirsty Thursday review), I came across this…

Star Trek Cereal

When I walked by it the first time, I had to do a double take. I thought some cereal line was doing a cross-marketing deal. But as it turns it, it’s a limited edition cereal of its own brand.

I’m not going to lie – I geeked out for a few seconds. However, I did not buy it. I have some control, regardless of what you might think.

    Just a few thoughts…

    A.) Yes it is. I see “Where No Geek Has Gone Before!” was officially registered on July 8, 2008.

    B.) Good job on registering.

    C.) But your point is…?

    D.) My use of “Where No Geek Has Gone Before” is purely nominative and non-commercial. As such, my use is protected under 17 USC 107 and other judicial holdings.

    E.) I’d recommend checking out: Bally Total Fitness Holding Corp. v. Faber or Bosley Medical Institute v. Kremer. These are helpful cases on what I can only assume your claim is.

    F.) Thanks for reading and commenting on my website.
