... cool, but did you get your money back ?

Mojo · 04-03-2003, 07:05 AM

No, but I didn't expect to.

Seeing him go to federal prison for a good long while (this is his 3rd offence) will be satisfaction enough for me.

Every week when he's in prision I'll send him a nice polaroid of me sitting on the deck of my beach house with a drink in one hand and my girlfriend in the other.

SothArtist · 04-03-2003, 07:27 AM

lol IdInternet and Mule! Both good points!

He's 62 so I don't know if I would be interested in his girlfriend.

And if he comes after me I will plunge the sharp end of my pina colada's paper umbrella into his eyeball.

Recruit her for Milfhunter, or one of those "GrannyLikesYoungCock" sites

read the article.. the writer is a moron, they wrote
"338 thousand dollars", instead of $338,000 and "F-B-I" instead of FBI

guess they let anyone write the news now

mule · 04-03-2003, 08:59 AM

Yep, the grammar and punctuation is all screwed up as well

I would think if you wanted to be taken seriously as a source of news, your writing should reflect that.

maybe I just expect more from ppl who report the news.

if some webmaster had some crappy ass site, I'm sure you would have no problem telling them so.

I agree. That's like a doctor lazily tossing a transplanted heart into his patient's chest and expecting everyone to be fine with it. If it is your profession then you should at least have basic mastery of what goes into it, in this situation namely the english language and proper grammar.

Actually that is just a transcript of the TV news broadcast from last night. It's not actually a newspaper article.

There were 2 newspapre articles but they are not in the online editions (yet).

I don't want my picture circulating through the prison system.

What's sad is that quite probably, the writer had great spelling and punctuation in his reporting, but whoever did the copy-editing fucked it all away. Before anything is published, (in lots of cases this includes internet publication), it's copy edited at least once, and often twice.

But it's always the writers who catch the shit for mistakes. After all, it's their name attached to the story.

FUK KOPEE EDITERS!! BASTARDZ!
