pets.com initiates a new revenue strategy:

In a federal lawsuit filed last week, Pets.com accuses "Late Night" writer Robert Smigel,
creator of the show's "Triumph the Insult Comic Dog," of defaming the ubiquitous sock puppet.

"Triumph is a rubber dog that...regularly uses vulgarity, insults both
the humans and other dogs around him, and often conducts
physical attacks of a sexual nature on female dogs," the complaint
says.
