That's Bad

Taking a student home for sex?
This makes what Mary Kay Letourneau did pale by comparison.
The bond amount seems pretty low considering that what he did was at least reckless endangerment.
This is the kind of crap that spoils the reputation of homsexuals.
Its not fair, but when harm is done everybody suffers.

Young People More Practical Than Thought

The Daily Beast reports on an American Red Cross study that found 60% of the post 9-11 generation find torture acceptable, to enemies of state.
The report jumps to the conclusion that young people have less empathy than they should. Blaming television shows such as 24.
Perhaps there is a different explanation and that could be...
The young ones are more practically evolved than the reporters.

I Used to Like Sandwiches

Now I have to be careful of the contents before I take a bite.
For myself, I have found that you have to give politicians a couple of terms before their real identity shows. Take for instance Lindsey Graham who at his start was portrayed as a progressive Republican. I should have recoiled at the adoration of the press, but instead bought in and took a big bite out of the shit sandwich. Now that tastes pretty bad, the press liked him because he was one of them, and only a Republican because he wanted to be elected.

He's Getting Close

To doing time in the big house.
About a week ago in my post about the twenty-five coolest athletes of all-time, that Allen Iverson would end up in jail. This shows that he might be at the tipping point.
CNN reports that former NBA player berated an Atlanta policeman on Wednesday March 30. The car was pulled over for not signaling a lane change and then the Lamborghini was found to have a registration that lapsed in 2009. Iverson who was the passenger became irate and said to the officer...

"I'm the (expletive) passenger."

Now I am betting that the expletive was the word 'fucking'. What do you think? He then went on the say...

"Police don't have anything else (expletive) to do except (expletive) with me. Do you know who I am?"

Pretty sure that he said that f word again. And the answer to his question should have been an immediate, "yeah I know who you are, the most selfish player in NBA history". He was also heard to say...

"Take the vehicle, I have 10 more,"

Later the obnoxious turd apologized the officer, claiming that he was upset about his car. Which means that while he was ranting and raving about not caring about the car, he really lying and worried about the car.
The lying thing should be useful in prison. I wonder if bail bondsmen will use the title on the Lamborghini as collateral when the lawyers expect to be paid.
GQ is looking pretty smart with top 25 pick.

But That's Where It Happened

I guess that I can see the point, and the NAACP isn't out there protesting, but jeez we are talking about marker that stands for an event that crushed the spirit of their oppressors. The NAACP representative said:

“It seems to be honoring something that reminds us of some tragic occurrences that happened to our people at the time. The whole war itself centered around the slave issue,” said R.L. White, president of the NAACP’s Atlanta branch. “We accept that it’s history but would like to see it done somewhere else than the heart of the civil rights historic district. It’s kind of tragic that the state is choosing that location.”

Sherman picked the location Mr. White, get over it.
At best the marker will be defaced by one of your bretheren, at worst stolen for the copper.

Mrs. B. T.

Sorry to have forgotten your birthday.
Somehow I think you might have expectations of gifts you do not deserve.
What you do deserve, is, time in jail.

Subject: (Yesterday was my birthday, you forgot again!!!).
Good Morning,
I am Mrs. B T, an employee of a safe-deposit/security company in The Bahamas. I am in charge of Files and Records. Over the years I have discovered in record a particular file/safe box which has remained dormant and unclaimed for so many years. Due to past experience in a situation such as these, I decided to engage the services of a private investigator with the full details of the customer but was informed after his findings/investigation that the customer was a spy for the Chinese Government and has been confirmed dead.

This information I do not want to pass unto my employers for they will take advantage, close the customer's file and take possession of his consignment while I will be informed that the customer has come to close his account during my leave period. I really do not know who to trust as my past experiences with my company has made me not to trust any one or talk about our company which is one of her standard procedures for securities.
I decided to contact you even as I don't know you before, but it is better for me Security-wise. I am not a bad woman but will loose yet again another opportunity immediately to my employers and their personal bank accounts if I inform them. I know with a trusted external body to front as the kin to the late customer, it can channeled it to our own advantage/interest. I know a very good attorney in the area of inheritance that I can hire, I have already discussed with him and he has assured me 100% it can be accomplished with the right information and details. I have all the information we need but I will need your assistance for these to be successful.

I had secretly verified the content of the box. This action is a grave violation of the policy of this security company; however I discovered that there is over Thirty Million Euros in cash as stated in records, some documents and a sealed envelop, which I suspect contains the pin numbers of some Swiss accounts. Please use my home email to respond back and use the word (HAPPY BIRTH DAY) as the Subject for security reasons. My home E-mail: (angela14@one.co.il) Please write back. I am sorry for the subject (Yesterday was my birthday, you forgot again!!!)). I had to use that as security code so that I will not attract attention. I learnt that from my company as part of communicating without drawing attention.
Mrs. B T.
