Too bad the 17 y/o wasn't so accommodating when he ruined (that is, ended) someone else's life.

I agree.

Cold turkey replacement therapy? They start off with turkey bacon



(which I didn't know existed until recently).

She called me today btw. I unfortunately answered it by accident. I forgot my iPhone at home and I forwarded the calls to my work phone, and I thought she was a customer calling me. The cool thing about it. I didn't enjoy the conversation one bit. I don't find her jokes funny anymore, and I find the sound of her voice rather repulsive. I wish I didn't answer her call.Anyway, yes I had court today. I lost my license for 6mo. I am granted driving privledges however. I have no will want or desire to introduce any poisons into my body. I am completely over it all. I have to go to a 72hr drivers intervention program on valentines day. How ironic? The whole thing is going to cost me about 2k by the time I get my license reinstated. I have only one thing left now. Racing bikes, it's all I want to do. Eff everything else. Unfortunately I need to bum rides to races until June.

Sounds like you came out smelling like a rose - you're alive and no one was killed. I hope nobody texts and drives - that's up there with drunk driving IMO.

I'm sorry, but the photo looks staged. Like hubs would ever sit still like that in the wild.

It's an X-rated picture.

They're fornicating.

It worked for the spokes, as you can see.

A very successful lawyer parked his brand new golden Lexus in front of the office in preparation for showing it off to his colleagues.

As he was stepping out, a truck came along and completely tore off the driver's side door.

The lawyer immediately grabbed his cell phone, dialed 911, and in less than five minutes a policeman arrived. But, before the officer had a chance to ask any questions, the lawyer started screaming hysterically his Lexus, which he had just picked up the day before, was now completely ruined and would never be the same, no matter how much work the body shop did on it.

After the lawyer finally wound down, the cop shook his head in disgust and disbelief: "I can't believe how materialistic you lawyers are," he said. "You are so focused on your possessions that you neglect the most important things in life."

"How can you say such a thing?" asked the lawyer.

"My God," pondered the astonished policemen, "don't you even realize that your left arm is missing? It was obviously ripped off when the truck hit you!"

"Oh my God!" screamed the lawyer, "my Rolex!!"

A Mafia Godfather finds out that his bookkeeper has cheated him out of ten million bucks.

His bookkeeper is deaf. That was the reason he got the job in the first place.

It was assumed that a deaf bookkeeper would not hear anything that he might have to testify about in court.

When the Godfather goes to confront the bookkeeper about his missing $10 million, he brings along his attorney, who knows sign language.

The Godfather tells the lawyer "Ask him where the 10 million bucks he embezzled from me is.

The attorney, using sign language, asks the bookkeeper.

The bookkeeper signs back: "I don't know what you are talking about."

The attorney tells the Godfather: "He says he doesn't know what you're talking about."

The Godfather pulls out a pistol, puts it to the bookkeeper's temple and says, "Ask him again!"

The attorney signs to the bookkeeper: "He'll kill you if you don't tell him!"

The bookkeeper signs back: "OK! You win! The money is in a brown briefcase, buried behind the shed in my cousin Enzo's backyard in Queens!"

The Godfather asks the attorney: "Well, what'd he say?"

The attorney replies: "He says you don't have the guts to pull the
trigger."

Lawyers should never ask a Louisiana grandma (or any grandma )a question
if they aren't prepared for the answer.

In a trial, a Southern small-town prosecuting attorney called his first
witness, a grandmotherly, elderly woman to the stand.

He approached her and asked, " Mrs. Jones , do you know me?"

She responded, "Why, yes, I do know you, Mr. Williams . I've known you
since you were a young boy, and frankly, you've been a big
disappointment to me. You lie, you cheat on your wife, and you
manipulate people and talk about them behind their backs. You think
you're a big shot when you haven't the brains to realize you never will
amount to anything more than a two-bit paper pusher. Yes, I know you."

The lawyer was stunned! Not knowing what else to do, he pointed across
the room and asked, " Mrs. Jones , do you know the defense attorney?"

She again replied, "Why, yes, I do. I've known Mr. Bradley since he was
a youngster, too. He's lazy, bigoted, and he has a drinking problem. He
can't build a normal relationship with anyone and his law practice is
one of the worst in the entire state. Not to mention he cheated on his
wife with three different women. One of them was your wife. Yes, I know
him."

The defense attorney almost died.

The judge asked both counselors to approach the bench and, in a very
quiet voice, said, "If either of you idiots asks her if she knows me,
I'll send you to the electric chair."

Correct. But do you think the criminal justice system is for revenge or justice? The kid killed his best friend. He effed up big time. He now needs to walk the straight and narrow for ten years. Then he gets his life back.

Or they could send him to prison for 5-10. He will have a felony conviction and no education. He the. would have no chance.

I asked the judge what the DA and the deceased parents thought of the sentence. Nobody argued. He said that the DA would have suggested it if he could have.

Some people don't seem to think there is a difference.

I know. But I didn't expect VeloVol to be one of them.

How do you carry a sweet potato on a bike ride? That could get messy.

I don't know. Why do we put people in prison.

NBC tonight had a segment on the light sentences drivers get when they are texting and then hit people.

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/21134540...15590#50415590

Some drivers have only been sentenced to a few days in jail for killing people. How in the world are we going to get people to take this problem seriously when the consequence for killing an innocent person is a token slap on the wrist?
