LawTalkers - Less to See than on NHL Center Ice®

The punctuation in MR's "See, e.g. ABBAKiss" post got me. But I'm not gonna post about it because he might take it personally. I guess I'm a closet Blue Booker.

The use of "loan" as a verb usually tweaks me, but Ironweed is sexy, so I let it go.

bilmore used it on the PB and I let that go, because who the fuck cares how they say what they say over there, anyway?

I don't think so. As I said, I think the important thing for him is being able to connect with these kids on his/their level, which is that of an eleven year old. Why would some 35 year old, who looks like a child be an adequate subsitute? They wouldn't have the right mentality. Too mature.

What he really needs is years and years of therapy. I'm surprised it has taken this long. You are correct though, jail will do him no good.
While I believe that Michael has done the things his accuser says, it seems that the accuser and his family were the wrong people to bring this case. The defense attorneys have done a good job in attacking credibility.

Still, he should get some therapy.

Have you tried make-up sex?

For the women: bloody hell. Guys probably don't want to read this.

Fuck woman, how do you know so many depressed folks? I have a cadre of depressed jackass friends, and we all hate our jobs - even the guys making major bucks - yet I don't know a soul who's offed himself. I mean, I fucking haaaate so many things about my existence, but shit... there's nothing else. Its all I got. I can't off myself. That's giving the fuckers the win.

That bothers me too (surprise, surprise), although we are losing the battle on this one, I'm sorry to say. It appears in the dictionary (the OED, no less!) as a verb. Sigh.

Sebby would give him a pass because he was heading into decrepitude.

How depressing! Guess I'll have to re-train my ear/eye not to be irritated. Good thing there are so mamy other irritants to fill the void.

There are those people with the disease that prevents them from looking mature even though they are. Maybe they did try and that's why it took so long for the second incident to surface.

Remember how hard it was to talk your old lady into taking it in the ass? Now, imagine your wife was a 35 year Gary Colemanish man who'd been made fun of for his childlike appearance his entire life.

'What I have to offer you is one last spectacular humiliation, one from which you will most certainly never recover. Before you answer, 'Have you ever seen $50,000.00 in a suitcase?'"
