I think someone's already got you beat. I quote from an M&M candy
advertisement:

 "TM/(R) M&M's, the letter M and the M&M's Characters are registered
trademarks of Mars, Inc. and its affiliates (C) Mars, Incorporated 2002"

So, by my count, by the end of this message I have committed 39 acts of
trademark infringement... :)
