[kj] Gathering Digest, Vol 86, Issue 117

[sade1]

   If (and only if) KJ were any more popular, I would expect to see a lawsuit 
from 

Absolut Vodka, or at least a cease-&-desist letter - that is, after they're sued 
by the 

Communist Party for this 
logo,http://cedarlounge.files.wordpress.com/2007/10/kj_records_logo.jpg , or 

th weapons manufacturer, 
http://chairsoft-press.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/airsoftpics-17-500x375.jpg ,
 
http://www.kjworksusa.com/ , amongothers.
