KISS tongue-wagger Gene Simmons is taking time out from writing a tedious blog and appearing on reality TV to help craft asinine cease-and-desist letters:
According to their management, Canuck metallers KITTIE have been forced to change the name of their record company from Kiss Of Infamy to X Of Infamy. The band received a cease-and-desist letter recently from the attorneys representing Kiss Catalog Ltd., the owner of trademarks relating to the band KISS.
Next on the docket for KISS' attorneys:
· Kiss My Ice, for obvious reasons.
· Mocha Kiss Coffee, because of its possible conflict with the KISS Coffeehouse offerings.
· Zach Braff, for including the not-rocking-enough Remy Zero on the soundtrack to The Last Kiss.

slow day huh?
I was an insanely devoted KISS fan when I was young. I continued to listen to them through the tough periods: Dynasty, Creatures of the Night, Lick it Up... I finally stopped at Asylum. But I always kept kind of a soft spot for them.
Now, I wouldn't cross the street to piss on Gene Simmons if he was on fire. And I'm going to make a point of stealing their albums from the first one up to The Elder off the internet just to fuck them over.
Gene should buy Handsome Dick Manitoba a cruise ship ticket so the two of them can sit around hoping that someone will recognize them, and avoiding talking about the fact that they used to be musically relevant but now must hire lawyers in order to feel like they still have a purpose in life.
Next to be sued by KISS: Bosnia & Herzegovina, for receiving aid from the proceeds of sales of a '99 benefit disc featuring Pearl Jam's cover of "Last Kiss".
