I've already trademarked the letter E... and since THE contains my trademark, they owe me money.

I just filed a trademark on “Ohio State”. Was worth the $50 application fee.

Now the only shirts they can sell will just say THE

I'm going to trademark "A" and sit back and rake in the royalties.

No way this shit is granted.

I guess Ohio State is just too hard to remember, on it's own.
