As part of our ongoing Moleskine watch, we bring you this hilarious legal warning from the company's Brand Terms.

The gist is that should a fellow get the urge to use the name Moleskine anywhere "in the net," said chap must first shoot Moleskine's corporate lawyers a quick email to confirm that he is, in fact, permitted to use that sacred word. He should know that his request will be "valued carefully," which may or may not mean that he will receive a cash reward for his troubles.

We love you too!

Thanks, Molly! Thanks, Spike!
