Remember the campaign with the chihuahua jonesing for Taco Bell ? A Grand Rapids agency thought their idea got ripped off and won their trial in Michigan a few years ago . Taco Bell then sued their agency in California, and it ended up on appeal there, and on Monday, Taco Bell lost, yet again .
What was a $30 million verdict, with $12 million in interest, continues to tick-tick-tick up with new interest, the final tab running ever higher. TB should bring back the 99 cent double decker taco , sell a few dozen million and settle this thing.

Today, I needed to check out the link below because of a circumstance which you can probably figure out, what with mucho holiday candy laying about.
So, from National Geographic: a very neat page allowing you to see how much chocolate it takes to injure your dog .
When one talks about chocolate labs, apparently it shouldn’t be, like, literally chocolate.

You’ve probably heard about the free coffee at Starbucks on Election Day , but there’s a lot of other swag to be gotten for exercising your franchise tomorrow, despite the efforts of buzzkills .
Included among those companies is Krispy Kreme . So, in addition to making and selling the greatest food product in the history of the universe, it is nice to know that it is also an outstanding corporate citizen.
Mmmmm , donuts .
