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.

Fed Supplement with Flask

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.

Cover up of Conservative Radio Host hit and run outside Gay Bar.

OK, so a former republican councilman and current conservative talk-radio bloviater does a hit-and-run outside a gay bar. He hits the bouncer's vehicle. The bouncer sees him do it. He sees they guy and identifies him as said talk radio host. He writes down the license plate. The license plate number traces back to said talk show host. Security cameras inside the bar show that said talk show hose was inside the establishment before the collision. The police send evidence to the DA. The DA won't prosecute because "nobody saw him do it". Sounds like somebody is a radio fan.
