Originally, I thought this was going to be the idiot of the day.  Then, I was going to morph into Big Brother run amok.  But, the story reads a lot different than the obvious. State Del. Lionel Spruill introduced a bill Tuesday to ban displaying replicas of human genitalia on vehicles, calling it a safety [...]

Banning saggy pants

December 11th, 2007 | No Comments

Here’s the headline: The Atlanta school board voted unanimously Monday night to ban students from wearing sagging pants that expose underwear — a youthful fashion statement deemed to defy classroom decorum. Here’s the reality: Although a fashion “statement” for the last twenty years or so, they look stupid.  They make the wearer look even more [...]

A jury in Shepherdsville just found McDonalds liable for $6.1 million in the case of a worker who was basically raped during work hours.  The whole thing was caught on tape.  It went on for hours.  Basically, a prank caller directed a McDonald’s employee and her fiancee to do things to an employee and the [...]

Tap Tap Tap

When I was in college, I had a frat brother who was the queerest human male on this planet.  He wasn’t just gay, he was flaming.  He loved being gay and flaunted it excessively and publicly.  This guy was about six feet four inches and probably in the neighborhood of about three hundred pounds.  Now, [...]

Larry Craig and the homophobe card

August 28th, 2007 | No Comments

I pretty much figured this would happen a lot sooner than I did find it.  Jeff Fecke at Shakesville ponders: ….if Craig had been arrested for public nudity or having sex in a bathroom stall, I could understand this better. If he’d been arrested for soliciting a prostitute, I’d be all in favor of him [...]

Bush commutes Libby for obstructing nothing

July 2nd, 2007 | 11 Comments

I saw this one coming a mile away and about a year ago. It starts with this: President Bush spared former White House aide I. Lewis “Scooter” Libby from a 2 1/2-year prison term in the CIA leak case Monday, stepping into a criminal case with heavy political overtones on grounds that the sentence was [...]

Justice is blind

Paris Hilton is now serving 45 days in jail for driving on a suspended license and violating her probation. Mary Winkler is now serving 60 days for killing her husband. This was an awful week for the justice system if you ask me.

The Supreme Court looks at insurance

June 8th, 2007 | No Comments

A common practice of insurance companies is giving discounts to people with good credit scores. The adverse way of looking at it is they penalize people with bad credit scores. A couple of people were unhappy that their credit scores were used to rate their insurance and sued. It made it all the way to [...]
