I just can't help myself when it comes to DUmp monkey bob_weaver

Ol' Bobb-o decided to create this:

Apparently his little run-in with that Christian graphic artist didn't teach him anything.  So I contacted Alaska Magazine's editor in chief.  Here's the reply I got:

Good deal!

I am afraid there may be a problem with "Parody" as a 1st Amendment Issue, but I am sure there are parameters to delineate what is and isn't parody.
If you want to worship an orange pile of garbage with a reckless disregard for everything, get on down to Arbys & try our loaded curly fries.

I don't know.  The artwork he stole from the Christian artist most certainly was not protected by "parody."  Bobby was just too lazy to create his own images.

I'm sure Alaska Magazine's legal department will hash it out.  If the image gets pulled, we'll know the outcome.
