This is a blog created to do the daunting task of covering virtually every topic of military history, along with other topics (mostly analyzing young adult series or criminal cases) that appear in the author's mind. I will also cover other academic topics occasionally.

Fogerty v Fantasy Lawsuit
When John Fogerty left the Credence Clearwater Revival, he unwisely sold the rights to several of his songs to Saul Zaeantz and started his own career. Fogerty then released a song called "The Old Man Down the Road". Zaeantz apparently thought the song was too similar to Fogerty's earlier song "Run thru the Jungle", which Zaeantz owned the rights to. Zaeantz then literally sued Fogerty for plagiarizing himself. Fogerty won the lawsuit, but the legal troubles with Zaeantz were just getting started. Fogerty then released a hate song towards Zaeantz called "Zanz Kant Danz", which Zaeantz sued Fogerty AGAIN. This time for deformation charges, and Fogerty was forced to change the name of the song "Vanz Kant Danz".
