The 54 Million Dollar Pants
According to ABC News, “Administrative law judge Roy Pearson is representing himself in civil court and claimed that he is owed $54 million from a local dry cleaner who he says lost his pants, despite a sign in their store which ensures ‘Satisfaction Guaranteed.’ “
Don’t you wish you could wear a pair of pants worth 54 million dollars? I understand there is some “pain and suffering” in there somewhere, but hey, expensive pants are–well–expensive.
Even the lawyers say this is too much. It is a waste of the Court’s time, according to some in the judical community. I’ve got news! So are the vast majority of law suits. Whatever happened to just settling a matter fairly and honestly?
Don’t you know God lloves this stuff. Life is not worth a plugged nickle (e.g. war, genocide, abortion, etc.), but my pin-striped pants are worth top billing on the 6 o’clock news!
