Dear NBC: Cease and desist or I will kill your Peacock

Chuck Norris is currently suing NBC, claiming Law and Order are trademarked names for his left and right legs.

I've got my lawyers all over this. When I first heard of this show back in 1990 I thought wow... how nice of NBC to feature a biography on old Chuckster. Although I did enjoy the episode, I was irate after I kept waiting for a look-a-like to make an appearance and declare that law (my left leg and order (right) had arrived to put things right.

I picked up the phone called my lawyer buddy and that was when the heated legal battle ensued. We sent them a firm worded letter. The gist of which said that they can call the show Chuck Norris' legs or even simply Left and Right, but under no circumstance may they infringe upon the Norris estate and call their program or any sub-program "Law and Order."

I'll keep you posted on any developments- this may take awhile.
