The small print. When I went to the expo for the Marathon/ Mini Marathon, I was handed a $500.00 gift card for something called "Red Star Worldwear". The card says, "Why? We want to create a buzz for our new products... so for a limited time we're giving away gift cards to select active lifestyle consumers". The small print, however, says that they charge a "Service Fee" that's not covered by the gift card, which pays for "1st Class postage, general overhead and profit, free exchange program and processing & handling services".
So... They're selling sunglasses, and charging a fee that covers their costs and returns them a profit. What exactly is the "gift"?

Not happy with "predetermined outcome" rassler kicks other rassler below the belt.

In his lawsuit, the plaintiff alleges pro wrestling is "scripted", and "choreographed". Really??? This is painful to read. Whatever happens to his lawsuit, I hope J Milz recovers from his injury. Scripted or not scripted, it wouldn't hurt to wear a cup. The ball's in your court, Guido.

What every Kentucky law office needs!  A law book with some Bourbon in it.  I guess now that all of our law books are digitized, we have to so something with all of the books.  This is as good as any, I guess.


A must-have for people who really didn't want to practice law all that much.
