I would be shocked if he didn't sue. The Humbling Fairy needs to pay that man a visit.

But Dino M. Zaffina, a squat, well-groomed darts enthusiast with a blind left eye, who possesses a law degree and an Italian sense of respect, has a talent for pissing people off.

I hope the article writer originally wrote this sentence without including the dude's middle initial. I wonder if the editor (or the paper's attorney) required it be used. My God I would have paid to see the dude's reaction when he read the paper and saw that his middle initial was left out. Ha!

I actually went to a job fair last week, and one of the guys there was wearing a suit and the crotch of the pants was down at his knees. Couldn't tell if he had his pants half way down his butt, because he had a jacket on, but he almost had to. Either that or he had some major adjustments made to the waste and length...

Police: 14-year-old steals car, crashes on Parkway after... | www.wpxi.com

Video in link too

Quote:

Police said a 14-year-old stole a car on Sunday then led officers on a chase that ended in a crash on a Parkway East ramp.
Investigators said the chase began when a man called 911 after he saw someone driving his friend's stolen vehicle on Rodi Road.
"My friend had called me and said, 'Melissa, where are you going? Why are you driving like a maniac?' At that point I said, 'That's not me. My car just got stolen.' He turned around and he started following the car," said Melissa Leon.
When officers caught up with the stolen car, the driver tried fleeing and led them onto a Parkway East ramp where he crashed and flipped several times.
Channel 11's Dave Bondy spoke to the mother of the 14-year-old accused of stealing the car. She said what her son did was wrong, but the owner of the car made it too easy for her car to be stolen.
"My son was wrong for taking that vehicle but someone jumped out of their car and a 14-year-old seen the opportunity to take the car. He didn't break the car to steal it. They left the keys in the car. I think as an adult we have some type of ownership to being responsible for our vehicles," the boy's mother said.
Troopers said the chase was called off before the teen flipped the jeep on the Parkway East. The boy's mother said she doesn't think police should have followed her son.
"He had to no right to chase my son. It could have been a situation where maybe it was just a joyride down the street. Maybe he wanted to go further than he felt like walking," she said.
The teen was taken to UPMC Mercy Hospital where he is listed in critical condition

Based on this quote, "Maybe he wanted to go further than he felt like walking," I'd say, yes you can, but only if you want something in her house. At that point, the officers would be wrong to get involved.

The fun part would be to figure out precisely which child and when during the pregnancy did this actually occur. I love the "it's pi times 100 million" bit - no it's not, pi is an irrational number, pi times 100 million still has an infinite number of digits after the decimal point.

Dallas Cowboys in hot water after burned fan files lawsuit against team - ESPN Dallas

A Dallas Cowboys fan is burning mad at her team.
Jennelle Carrillo, of Cleburne, Texas, has sued the Cowboys and owner/general manager Jerry Jones after she suffered severe burns to her backside while allegedly sitting on a bench outside Cowboys Stadium before a team scrimmage in August 2010.

More on the Cowboys

Calvin Watkins, Tim MacMahon and Todd Archer have the Dallas Cowboys blanketed.
Blog » ESPN Dallas »
Top 50 Cowboys



Temperatures on the day of the annual Blue & Silver scrimmage were more than 100 degrees, and the bench that Carrillo sat on was black.
"The bench was uncovered and openly exposed to the extremely hot August sun," the suit, which was filed in Tarrant County civil court, states. "The combination of the nature of the black, marble bench and hot sunlight caused the bench to become extremely hot and unreasonably dangerous."
Carrillo's lawyer, Michael Wash, told KDFW-TV that his client initially knew she had been burned but didn't realize the extent of the injuries until receiving medical attention. She did not stay for the game, according to Wash.
"She sat down on this black bench, outside an entrance and unfortunately she suffered third-degree burns as a result of it and had subsequent skin grafts," he told KDFW.
The suit alleges that Cowboys Stadium posted no warning signs alerting fans that the benches could be hot.
Wash told KDFW that Carrillo has suffered "mental anguish, physical pain and disfigurement as a result of her wounds."
According to the TV station, Carrillo is suing to get a jury trial and payment of court fees, interest and a damage amount determined by the jury.
The Cowboys declined comment to KDFW due to the ongoing litigation, per team policy.

And what was her thinking? I'm sure it took a little while to reach the point of 3rd degree burns. "I'll just sit here a little while longer...it's hot...really hot...but maybe if I sit long enough, I'll just get used to it."
