Apple Computers is laying legal claim to the term "pod," used in words like "podcast." Here are some other items Apple is trying to claim as its own:
* Human silhouettes
* Several thousand Chinese children
* Thinking differently
* The last slice of pizza
* The term "tunes"
* Any Granny Smith with a bite taken out of it
* The concept of sharing
* The pronoun "I"; Effective immediately Apple will collect royalties from anyone referring to oneself in this manner
