I am shocked that a butterface like that could win a beauty pageant. The body, however, is worth a gander.

Wonder why no initial post to the ABC link?

Pima County is obviously home to 99.2% inbreds if that is their idea of beauty.

Classy, she was in a chicks-with-guns calendar? But yeah, 9:43, eminently hit-tastic.

Let's get one thing straight. If she worked for the judge during lawschool, she was an intern, not a clerk. There is a difference media people.

This case is a piece of cake. We'll go with the he's into weird kinky sex defense. He wanted to do a role play where he was being robbed and got seduced by one of the robbers. "If he asked for the knife in the ear, she's in the clear!"

I would still like to see Congress grow a pair and actually challenge the White House on any of the issues listed in Lithwick's piece...

Jupa, that sucks man. I hope for my own sake that it's your firm that's so messed up, and not the world, (though it is, I realize, almost certainly the latter).

Jupa - It will never happen, Congress is full of pirates and GWB is a total ninja.

Definitely not much in the facial department, but the bikini shot makes more sense. I guess I'd let her tie me up.

corn rows and a name like Kumari? I'd hit it, with a claw hammer.

Rodriguez couldn't have handled his departure with less class. He says publicly and repeatedly that he intends to be at WVU for a long, long time, then jumps ship right before a bowl game, taking key coaching staff with him! Sends his resignation notice to the administration through a teaching assistant, and doesn't even accept a call about his departure from the governor. As if that's not enough, he takes every opportunity to bash the school he's leaving. And he's SURPRISED that we'd be pissed off? WHAT DID HE EXPECT??!! Let's just hope that karma really is a b with an itch.

Actually, the initial story was run by the Arizona Star:

There might be a tidbit about this on Inside Edition tomorrow, too, sources say ;).

I have seen it all. Any client that has a UWV fan for a lawyer should just hang himself.
