The nerve of some people! Maybe you already knew it - but "happy birthday" isn't free people. That's right, it's now owned by a private Chinese company that trademarked it in 25 countries including the United States, Japan and European Union members. I know competition is getting bad but who dares take the fun away? The Fufeng toy plant in east China's Anhui Province - that's who. They have more than 70 products with the brand "Happy Birthday," from toys to dresses and shoes to hats. Well watch out "Merry Christmas," you better run and hide before corporate America puts you on a shelf too.
