Resisting the Temptation...

The picture, complete with half the rocket bearing "U.S. Air Force" markings, makes this story so much more enjoyable.

(Editor's note: I'm trying so hard not to make the obvious jokes here...I can only say that this reminded me of a certain commander that spoke of his certain "male" surgery in front of a wing officers call. I couldn't eat for the subsequent three days.)

Man's 'Viva Viagra' missile misfires in NYC court
NEW YORK (AP) — A court says a man's escapade in New York with a decommissioned missile emblazoned with "Viva Viagra" is a dud.

A federal judge ruled Wednesday that Arye Sachs' antics infringe on a trademark held by Pfizer Inc.

Sachs was ordered to stop displaying anything with Viagra logos.

He towed the 25-foot rocket last month to various spots in Manhattan, including Pfizer's headquarters.

His plan was to invoke Viagra while distributing politically themed condoms. The judge worried people would mistake the missile for a Pfizer-approved ad.

Sachs' phone rang unanswered Wednesday, and lawyers for Pfizer didn't return phone calls.

And here I am thinking Roger Clemens had the corner on being New York's Viagra Rocket.

Oh, and another great aspect of the story: the dude wears a flight suit:



Only in New York, kiddies. Only in New York.
