Yuppie clothier Lacoste just got its French ass handed to it for a second time during a court battle to protect its trademark crocodile logo. Who dared impinge on its copyright? A pair of British dentists who hung the sign on the left here outside their offices. The court ruled against Lacoste and fined the company £1,450 for legal costs but resisted the impulse to fine them further for being petty colorblind jackasses. [Reuters]
