Chelsea Davis had a bit of bad luck as she was participating in the 3-meter springboard preliminaries at the World Swimming Championships. This looks pretty bad and she required stitches to the bridge of her nose but other than that she is okay. The Mexican diver following her was pretty shaken up by the accident.

Remember a few days ago when I told you about going to court? I thought things were finally settled. They weren’t. This morning I learned that Ms Simmons has decided to appeal the sessions court decision to circuit court and will probably want a jury trial. This after dropping my truck off this morning to […]

In the old TV show Get Smart Maxwell Smart, agent 86, held the cover of being a greeting card salesman. He didn’t use this cover while he was being a secret agent, he used this cover for friends, family and acquantances. When he was undercover he was always undercover with a different name and a […]

Seeing as how Bill Clinton and G.H.W. Bush are getting along so well I wonder if there is any chance we could see Bill Clinton nominated to the Supreme Court by G.W. Bush.
No?
Okay, I really didn’t think so, either.

There are a few things I’ve learned over the years about how to handle bill that I think are too high but I have nothing really objective to base my feelings on. In my younger years I had a horrible time in successfully negotiating bills to a satisfactory conclusion. It usually concluded with me screaming […]

I was hoping that we could go one more year but with Justice O’Conner announcing her retirement there will be a fight this year over the next Supreme Court appointment. The court and this country will be at a loss with her retirement. Whoever is appointed will determine the way of the court for the […]
