So you can't take it with you, but you can get it from some whippersnapper later?

nope, nope not going to look at rapey and douchey. just not going to do it.

on the plus side: if they need work, there's likely some random production of 'titus andronicus' in need of tamora's sons.

Wasn't that a Sean Connery movie? I'd still take Brooke Shields over Meg Whitman.

Oops! It was Candice Bergan.

I've been to the zoo - you don't want to be downwind from the Lion.

Yes! Let’s get on with the 2012 campaigning. Yay?

<i>[Juliet Breitman] was three months shy of turning 5 when Ms. Menagh was struck, and thus old enough to be sued.</i>

See, that makes all the difference. Suing a 4-year-old would be ridiculous, but this hussy was four <i>and three-quarters</i>.

In fact, running down old ladies with your training-wheel bicycle is a well-known gang initiation rite. If the justice system can't step in and stop her now, how are they going to manage it when her training wheels come off?

I believe there was an (unfortunately) brief period of time when folks without stinking papers could obtain a California driver's license legally.

Yes, sanity broke out and the powers that be found an advantage in having drivers actually knowing the law - and having proper insurance.

I know the right wing nutz yelled about the forged driver's license that made Mrs. Whitman's case a stone cold lock - but I think that's just another lie.

It only "breaks her heart" because she knows this woman. (Or maybe because she got caught. Or maybe because she now has to pay retail for her housecleaning.) The "stronger electronic verification" would only mean that Ms Whitman's would have kicked Ms Santillan out sooner, with less heartbreak for at least one of the women.

“He (the judge) concluded that there was no evidence of Juliet’s “lack of intelligence or maturity” or anything to “indicate that another child of similar age and capacity under the circumstances could not have reasonably appreciated the danger of riding a bicycle into an elderly woman.””

This judge has never been around a 4 year old much less a 4 year riding a bike with training wheels. Stopping is a concept that some adults never master.

If they don't comport you must deport.

Hey Meg! Turn those lemons into lemonade. If people could sell their citizenship on eBay, the immigrants could just buy their way in. Or maybe some billionaire lady could pay the auction price. Who would sell their right to live here? Retirees who always wanted to travel.
