    I wonder if THE MENTALIST has trademarked his bit. If he hasn't, he should do so immediately.

    I didn't know you could trademark a timeworn phrase you didn't invent. I'm running right down to the patent office and putting a claim on "He Who Smelt it Dealt it."

    @shea_guevara: I believe the ownership of that phrase has already been determined by the landmark case, The People vs. Whoever Denied It Supplied It.

    As long as there are simpletons with terrible taste, the Reilly brand will thrive.


    Now please excuse me, my favorite movie, Coyote Ugly, just started.

    Stuart Scott tried that nonsense with "cool as the other side of the pillow".


    Luckily, we here at Necro Weekly! were all over that years ago.

    Is he ignoring or just completely unaware of the fact that he didn't invent the phrase "The Life of Reilly"?
