    No kidding! I was checking on something I ordered and I went to the UPS site to track it. Look what I saw at the bottom of the screen!

    "UPS, UPS brandmark, and the Color Brown are trademarks of United Parcel Service of America, Inc. All Rights Reserved."

    I had no idea you could trademark a color. Is that fucked up or what?

    Well in a way you have. No one else can use your screen name. Not only that no one could pull off the adorableness you posses with a name like FunkyPhreshMama. ;)

    They can trademark their particular shade of brown. (though, who'd wanna?) Car manufacturers do it all the time.
