MONTREAL - A Quebec Superior Court flipped the bird to sushi restaurant Fukyu.

The name "Fukyu" might be a Japanese word for a form of martial arts, but a judge ruled in August that it was "clearly inappropriate" in the Montreal context.

Another waist of tax payers money

I've got a slide somewhere from a trip to Berlin that show a tour company bus with the name F**K (no asterisks) in two foot letters on the side.  Think it was from eastern Europe.
