Slightly off-topic story from Cincinnati, circa 1995........
There was a dive bar along a small river here, that kept a large monkey in a cage outside the bar during the warmer months.
One day, the monkey was gone.
About 3 months later, the monkey returned (all in warm months).
The story is that a local lawyer was upset the monkey wasn't there, and heard the SPCA removed it. The lawyer researched the SPCA, and found they let their trademark expire on the legal name of the business, ASPCA. He then filed for the trademark rights under the monkey's name, and for a while, the monkey owned the name ASPCA. Hence his return to the cage. He was friendly, but he had a bad habit of smoking cigarettes that the bikers would give to him.......
