There is no argument ... Rocky is being absurd ... Rocky, if you want to talk about Nifong's politics, start a thread in politics ... not every aspect of Nifong's life is political. You seem to defend him because you try to censor/control this thread. Is he a friend of yours? It does seem to survive these days, you need a good lawyer to protect you from the sharks. This is one shark that got harpooned. That seems on topic Rottie ... :) He seems to know the system, but this seems so absurd ... too bad it is costing the small business time and bucks to defend. And of course it ties up the courts. Scary that he was/is a judge.

Rocky, you seem to want to get this relegated somewhere else ... as I said ... to me it is about the abuse of power. I need to find one of those lawyers that "walk on water" like George has. It's good to see someone that got "too big for his britches" have to face justice. There is hope for the "little guy". Right Rottie ... they had to spend a lot to get through this. As I understand, it meant great financial hardship for some. Hopefully they get that back in a civil case. Probably most of the time the bad guy in power just walks right over the little guy.

Rocky ... what is your problem? That site is largely but not exclusively political. I just happened to see it there. Here is the site Drudge linked to, if that matters. It is all over the news. We haven't talked of the political side ... my point was of a lawyer using his power for personal gain, and being brought down. There are decent lawyers also, I didn't say all lawyers try to run the world ... but many use their authority illicitly or unethically for personal gain. Abuse of power is a common theme here at GSC. His abuse of innocent young people is disgusting. It is empowering to the "little guy" that he is brought to justice. Your "defense" of Nifong was in saying to ignore the news because he resigned yesterday ... so it is old news ... move along. I'd say it is good news when an abuser gets caught. And in typical abuser fashion, it seems he resigned to try to get out of disbarrment, but they didn't buy it. I thought this line was interesting ... Tune in, it looks good. Nifong is suitably chastened, almost to the point of eliciting sympathy. Almost. Just heard the panel chairman Williamson say that many had an "unquestioning faith in what the prosecuting attorney told them, which made them look foolish, and makes them still look foolish to this day." I guess lcm was brought down by the justice system, while many had unquestioning faith in him. Bad guy brought to justice ... something to rejoice about. Those guys were in the news for months, it is worth a few days glee over Nifongs chastisement.

Well of course there are exceptions, but it seems they hang together. A comment from a lawyer that seems typical to me, when I (hypothetically) pointed out something similar to embezzlement ... "well you can't blame him for trying" ... and in a fairly small market .. "they won't go against each other". That makes for a real bad environment. It just seems to be how it is now ... and if you aren't willing to put up a lotta money to attempt to fight the "cabal", you get trumped. In a bigger market, lawyer friends told me .. after going through law school, you feel like it is your turn to get some ...in the context of, the hell with everyone else, we are here to take what we can get ... It seems things have gone down hill .. I guess Nifong's disbarrment was refreshing in that respect ... but here the bad guys are still winning ...

water water water drink water between drinks, or put lotsa ice with your drink ... OK, maybe I am saying don't drink so much but if you drink hard for a bit, at least get some water down, and some acetominophen ibuprofin? maybe ... I'd go with four tylenol ... not that I ever hung out all night at a bar for a few years ... just sayin' ... :)

It went on for a long time ... i don't see it as politics ... he could have been a republican or a democrat ... Lawyers are trying to run the world ... my first hand experience tells me they don't care about what is right, they are looking for an angle to steal from good people, and they recruit slime to support their positions ... You really want to defend the likes of Nifong? This is about slime dawg lawyers manipulating the system for personal gain ... surely you have experienced some of that?

Thanks goodness ... an out of control lawyer gets his due ... well, part of his due, there should be some civil suits, why not jail? Lawyers (insert lawyer joke here) need to be reined in, from the big ones to the little cheats that chisel away every chance they get. Ethics seem out the window, it is "what can you get away with" these days. Some need to go to jail, or worse. Ace of Spades HQ is one place covering it ... hang the law ... Aren't most congresscritters lawyers? What happened to ethics?

Great news ... I love those koi ... is there a screen print? or are they gone forever? :) Good to hear that doojable ... congrats ... get busy, your public wants you ...

I live near the "S" in Springfield, so they got me right ... I guess my time in Dallas and New Orleans didn't influence me much ... or I have reverted ...

OK, well for you neanderthals that don't block ads ... let's see or this ... OK, see if that does it ... www.baseball.com just trying to be more wholesome

breast enlargement bigger breasts breast cleaveage breasts cleaveage breasts cleaveage breasts cleaveage breasts cleaveage breasts cleaveage breasts cleaveage breasts cleaveage breasts I can't even see the ads, that was just on my mind regarding the catholics I'd like to meet ... :)

Sherman was Hayward's puppet ... I bet he still gets a little use ...

I feel bad for Sherman ... does Sherman have a retirement plan? That anyone could have lived the twi life all these years is ... bewildering? unreal? something strange ...

Considering window cleaners make $50 to $100 per hour (ok .. some of you guys make $200/hour) ... I wouldn't mind if Walter made some bucks ... if you think he really has something, wouldn't you pay for it? Just take it out of your abundant sharing ... I hope Walter really does find something and he is rewarded for his work ...

OK, confession time ... I thought if gross pay was negative, Box 328 would send ME money ... I am somewhat disillusioned ... But I have been over the two beer limit more than once, so I suppose what goes around comes around ... and it is somebody else's turn to buy a round ... But "pay" is such a worldy term ... I have learned that if you just help people and and trust that God is good, you will be awarded in heaven, but not on earth ... but I just count it all joy ... if I was drinking drambouie I'm sure this would be clearer, but I tried a new cheap bottled beer ...Huber Bach ... $3 for a six pack ... it has an initial falstaff taste, but then a mellow and bland after taste ... not bad actually, on ice ... I am still ruminating on a more clever response to the negative gross or net question. I will be still and know that I am God, then will get back to you ... buuurrrpppp ...

LOL you are in sales, right? But let me get this one thing straight ... you mean you guys are NOT still sending in 10% 15% minimum to Box 328 every time you receive any money? See, it is like Mel Gibson in "Conspiracy Theory" for me ... he had to buy The Catcher in the Rye, I have to send my money in. Fortunately I found a solution, I quit making money ... :)

An 8 pounder ... WOW ... she must have married a large person, I don't remember Lisa as an Amazon woman ... Randy Vodka? hmmm But I guess Beefeater may have some "bad" connotations, but it was the only gin I could think of. Yes, I suppose Mr McA' would prefer to have no connection with any cult ... but that was so long ago it seems irrelevent. And we aren't talking about his immediate family, but it was kinda neat to chat with his Dad a little, since I was always a Cardinal fan.

Thanks keys, for replying to one of my twenty questions ... I went lightbearers to St louis with Randy Beefeater ... or some kind of alcohol ... I'm guessing 16keys' favorite St Lou Cardinal is Ken Boyer, is that correct? ... I saw him play in the old Sprotsman's Park. The catcher then was McCarvr ... related to some old corpse ... I went to his Pop's house in Memphis once with Fawster Smeth ... Lisa is certainly an inspiration ... how grand to look forward to such fireworks on the 4th ... OK ... my bet is on a 6 pound 12 oz bouncing baby girl ... 19" ... Is there a pool set up yet? OK, gotta do setup for a Public Ex tonight ... the word is really mooooving here lately, and many have herd the good news ...

This is kinda funny ...

She was probably having a mental breakdown, which considering her previous state, might have been "real". She served 5 days in jail, and will "fulfill" the rest at home. I'm not sure if that qualifies as "serving" ... but she does have to "serve" the full 45 days now, in luxury.

Thanks Niki ... the idea sounds OK, but as energizing as the joy of fatherhood might be, I'm not sure I'd really be up for it. I better start getting my aerobic points again ... I'll go do a 12 minute test right after this beer... I'd have to get the baby clothes and stuff from my nephew I guess, they just had their fourth little girl yesterday ... guess that's why the kid thing was on my mind, as well as dear Lisa ... so is she delivered? or was it just a myth?

I never followed the Paris stuff till I saw she was going to jail. Even now I just read the headlines, but it seemed like an interesting/fun topic. A movie with Paris ... I think it has been done. I wonder if all the publicity made it less likely she could cut a one day or one week deal.

I'm thinkin' 60 is a good age to become a Dad ... gives me 8 years to grow up ... 40 and 42, good for you Niki ... with drugs and new body parts (like Rocky has) ... you should be there for the great grand kids ... :) Lisa ... WOW ... what an inspiration ... my nephew will be a dad to Isabella any day now ... saaaalute ... 20/20 already Rocky ... neato ... good for you, and good luck on the left side, will be great to correct that lefty vision ;) ... Iozzone layer ... ha ha ha :) I'm only sad I spent time on running instead of chatting with Lisa :) 16 keys ... is this a piano player? ok, I know the walking by the spearamint thing, but I did a word study and found keys usually relates to a piano ... and if he hung with db, he is a keyboard dude or dudette ... who would that bee ? But I could be wrong ... I'm having a 9th corps reunion at the farm in 2010 ... I expect everyone here to show up a week early to clean the grounds and do set up ...

That's silly George ... obviously they are The Golden Divide and Crossing Icy Waters

OK, I knew I couldn't marry my cousin, but it was still OK we had kids, right?
