World-renowned karate master and Total Gym spokesman, Chuck Norris is suing Penguin publishing. The suit, filed in New York, alleges that Penguin committed trademark infringement, unjust enrichment and violated Mr. Norris’ privacy rights by publishing the book entitled, The Truth About Chuck Norris: 400 facts about the World’s Greatest Human.

Carlos Ray Norris (Chuck’s real name) claims, “The book’s title [will] mislead readers into thinking the facts [are] true.” The lawsuit alleges that, “Some of the ‘facts’ in the book are racist, lewd or portray Mr. Norris as engaged in illegal activities.”

These “facts” have developed quite a following over the last few years. People seem rather interested to know that Chuck Norris destroyed the periodic table, because the only element he recognizes is the element of surprise. I myself was shocked to learn that “fighting Chuck Norris is what Meatloaf wouldn’t do for love.”

This is not the first time Chuck Norris has filed a lawsuit. According to sources, Mr. Norris, “Once sued Gillette because Chuck Norris is the best a man can get.” Apparently, Chuck is “also suing ‘Myspace’ for taking the name of what he calls everything around you.”

Penguin beware. Mr. Norris is known to be able to kill two stones with one bird.
