Via Overheard in Court:

Q. I take it that before this accident happened you lived with your brother in-law and sister for about six months?

A. Yes.

Q. You got to know him quite well?

A. Yes.

Q. And you saw him interact with your sister, and I believe they had one child?

A. I didn’t see the actual interaction, but they did have one child.

Hate it when that happens

Poor Bob Dole.

Lawyer on phone: Well yes, he has a lot of problems... Most pressing of which is that his penis is malfunctioning.

Good advice

The Smoking Gun offers this useful advice: "Never Call The Cops With A Consumer Complaint About Your Hooker." As explained in the blog post, a clueless young gentleman "dialed cops Saturday night to report that he paid $60 to a pair of prostitutes to perform sexual acts for him."

He was later arrested for Patronizing a Prositute. Imagine that.

Well, it's good to know he's sorry.
