Paris Hilton released from jail

[swmdrayfan]

And I'm sure FOX News will keep us updated on a regular basis daily:
"AMERICAN PRINCESS IN JAIL----DAY 4"

The way those fools slobbered over Anna-Nicole Smith's death, just made me sick.
I HATE FOX News.

Well the story was even on BBC world news report. Sad times for all of us.

Did you see that the squad car that picked her up hit a reporter?

This is turning into a 3-ring circus. Time to get back to watching things that matter...

like whether or not pirates used to wear eye patches over their good eyes to improve their night vision in case of night attacks (Myth Busters) heheheh

[adina]

I always thought they wore patches because they were missing an eye.

[Frog]

Someone said a picture of her in her cell would be worth up to 500,000.

[mwfanelli]

I always thought they wore patches because they were missing an eye.

No. Most pirates wore eye patches because every one of their pirate friends had one.

Important Myth Busters Update!

1) Yes, you can be decapitated by tire tread if a big rig tire explodes next to you.

2) Yes, you can drive a Trans Am onto a moving big rig like Hasselhoff did in Knight Rider.

3) Yes, drafting a big rig improves gas mileage... tremendously... but its bad for you, and apprently illegal.

Now, isn't life better when you're not thinking about Paris Hilton?

Very interesting. So I can save gas by tailing a big rig, but I might loose my head. Hmmm, so many choices in life... But!! If I get a trans am, I can drive it onto the trailer of the big rig and save even more gas AND remove the risk of beheading. What to do, what to do????

Is anyone surprised? Paris was released from jail this morning and sent home for "medical" reasons...

Uh, who's Paris Hilton???

Ok, seriously, what everyone seems to be overlooking is that her sentence in no way fit the "crime". Even the state attorney said he was shocked that the judge gave her jail time. House arrest with a monitoring device is the norm for her infraction.

Obviously, the judge here has a thing for her (in a bad way), and was making an example of her. She showed contempt for the court, and he's making her pay.

Sure, she made her own bed, and of course she's a spoiled brat at times, but don't discount how incredibly stressful and frightening this would be for an average person, let alone one who's led a life of wealth and privilege.

Then imagine being in the middle of a media circus the likes of which hasn't been seen since the days of OJ, and it's no surprise she's on the verge... :cryin:

but what about the pirates? is the patch thing true?

[SmartWombat]

A cynic over here suggested that you have the best sheriffs money can buy.

[walterick]

"Plausible."

Yes, hiding your good eye under a patch allows you to have instantaneous night vision when needed. Now as to whether or not that was their motivation for doing it, we may never know!

Oh, and apparently you can't stick a knife in a sail and cut your way to the bottom without falling off either.

Damnit.

[walterick]

Ha, just have KIT make all the decisions for you! Done.

[walterick]

btw I am really having a craving to watch Knight Rider now.

Well, that was my plan for this evening, so I'll let you know how it goes.

[walterick]

No, I'm telling you, it really won't work! The guy fell off every time.

[adina]

Because we are a nation obsessed with all things celebrity.

What kills me is when you hear people talk about celebrities like they know them. Like they live next door or something. Too funny.

[mjs1973]

I just read a "news" story about how someone sold an empty dogfood can on ebay for $300. The can came from Paris's garbage. I don't know what's sadder, people trying to sell celebrity garbage, or the people who actually buy it...

[walterick]

Yes, and Paris hates that too.
