Accidents left two people sexually uninhibited

by

Have you heard of the legendary US lawsuit of 1970 when $50,000 was awarded to Gloria Sykes who was injured on a San Francisco cable car and was left with an unrestrained libido as a result?

Now there’s a new interesting case. In 2005, Stephen Tame, 29, of Suffolk England won a judgment against his employer when he was injured at work in a fall. His injury left him with an aggressive sexual dis-inhibition that has left his wife exhausted and annoyed, and led the man to infidelity.

Tames wife has said he’s not the man that she married 8 months earlier. This past December Stephen Tame was awarded $5.9 million dollars. I wonder if that “tamed” his libido?






Judge needs glasses

by

Here’s some interesting judgments for you:

1. In October, a judge of Scotland’s Greencock Sheriff Court dismissed the traffic charges against Hui Yu, a college student from Beijing, because he disregarded two police officers’ identification of Hui. As he made his decision the judge said = “ All Chinese people can look the same to a native Scot. It’s only when you have time to look that you begin to see the differences.”

Maybe they look the same to him, but he’s basically calling the police officers stupid and possibly stereotyping Chinese people by saying they all look a like. Time for this judge to open his own eyes.

2. Guy Fournier, The chairman of the Canadian Broadcasting Corp., resigned in September after giving an interview to a French magazine in which he expounded on, as The Associated Press put it, “the joys of bowel movements.”

37 trees by the pool

by

When Carol Lopez let her Labrador retriever out for the morning the dog had an unusual number of tree trunks to attend to. Surrounding her aboveground backyard pool Lopez found 37 used Christmas trees.

“I had just woke up and boom, they’re there and that’s it,” Lopez said Thursday.

Whoever put the trees there apparently took their time, neatly organizing and standing the trees upright.

Lopez said she called Allentown police, and an officer told her to call the city to have the trees removed. A city employee told her husband to drag the trees out of the backyard and they would be picked up free of charge, she said.

Lopez said she didn’t know how someone climbed a tall wooden fence surrounding the yard, or got all the trees over it.

“People just don’t have anything better to do,” Lopez said. “That’s someone who had time on their hands.”
