I have avoided the topic as long as I could but I'm tired of avoiding it now.  Maybe it's because every time I settle down to enjoy some quality time with my favorite radio station, I hear this abomination:  the nigh-ubiquitous "Dick Ticktionary" spot.  When it first happened, people would call me and ask, "Are those your definitions?"   and say, "That is so cool!"  At least they would say that until I told then that no, those weren't my definitions and yes, they did just lift the name of my web site and my intellectual property for their spot. 

I'm not bitter though.  Really.

I remember some months ago when I sat down with Bruce, discussing the possibility of taking over the Ticket's official site.  Admittedly at the time, I wasn't qualified to do that but what the hell, I tried.  During that meeting, we discussed the possibility of including exerpts from the Ticktionary in the Guys' Guide.  The only payment I wanted for this was to have my web address placed under the definitions.    When the Guys Guide to Going All Around and Doing Stuff came out, I found to my dismay that my web address or any credit to me was omitted.  I immediately called Bruce to relay my concern.  He assured me that it was a simple matter of a printer's error and it wouldn't happen again.

At least not until the next Guys' Guide came out.
