Edit: Miscarriage of justice resolved. Thanks Judge dude!
They let Paris Hilton go home? What bullshit is this? This is a complete miscarriage of justice. Completely moronic. You might as well put it in the Constitution now...if you have money, you don't have to go to jail. Not even the special part of jail reserved for rich/famous people. For some unspecified medical reason.
IT'S BULLSHIT.
If this were any of us "little people" they wouldn't give a rat's ass. We'd be getting cornholed (and whatever they do to female convicts) on a regular basis, and the guards would simply look the other way.

THE IDIOCY OF THAT IS MIND BOGGLING.
That's like grounding your kid to his room, which has cable TV, video games, and internet access.
GOING TO JAIL IS SUPPOSED TO BE PUNISHMENT. Whatever "medical" problem that rich bitch had was mostly like caused because SHE WAS IN JAIL.
I hate this country. I should have moved to Canada like I said I was going to if Dubya was elected back in 2000. Though, I always told myself I didn't go through with it because he wasn't elected. That and Canada actually came out with a statement that they shouldn't be looked to as a "way out."
When Paris Hilton gets arrested again for any sort of drinking related crime, I'm going to simultaneously laugh and cry.

Hi Bart-Man,
ReplyDeleteSorry I haven’t been a frequent visitor the past three days. I’ve been under the pump lately (that’s Aussie-speak for flat out) but haven’t forgotten my promise to you. As we discussed on the weekend, it’d be great to give your readers a great (unique) reason to keep coming back to your site.
This is something I was going to implement, but I’m happy to give you first go at it. Why not post a nursery rhyme and ask your readers to come up with a different last line in each instance?
Post the best reponses on your blog – and provide links to the bloggers who give you the best lines. As I suggested to yesbutimages for his caption contest – it creates loyalty, encourages readers to come back, the links work for your blog and theirs, and it is something unique to your site.
If rhymes are too simplictic, alternate ‘em. Rhymes one day, well-known song lyrics the next day.
Lemme know what you think ….
Cheers
David
That's an awesome idea, and I'm going to jump at it. Thanks, David!
ReplyDeleteBart...calm down...who really cares about Paris - what has she really done in life - she 'aint an actress or singer, so what if she's rich.
ReplyDeleteDeb
Deb - it's the principle. If it's not Paris, it's some other person who deserves the jail time but gets out of it. It's hypocritical and I hate it.
ReplyDeleteMaybe I'm gullible, but I want to know. Did Canada really issue such a statement?
ReplyDeleteah... so this country doesn't suck so hard as you thought, eh? ;-)
ReplyDeleteDeborah - Sorta. It wasn't all official like, but there was a lot of idle talk about people moving to Canada in 2000, and I distinctly remember the Canadian government responding with something like "don't everybody come, we don't have enough jobs. And you have to have reason to be up here, etc etc."
ReplyDeleteNichole - No, it still does, but this does give me a little more faith. That sheriff needs to be fired, though.
ReplyDeleteBart,
ReplyDeleteReally? That is funny.
It reminds me of many years ago when I was looking for a job and I saw one in my field in Alaska. I did an Internet search for "Alaska jobs" and a single web page came up with big lettering: "Do Not Come to Alsaka. We Do Not Have Jobs for You and We Do Not Want You Here."
I'm sure it wasn't the Alaska Better Business Bureau or Tourism Board sponsored. It was surprising and immedieatly ended my investigation to any jobs in Alaska.
