Well, we only really have half the story here. Usually a reader at least gets some information from the other side don't we?

You're right tho, we never get the whole story even when we witness it first hand.

That would surely be an admission of guilt in the "wong" situation.

And I think this was where I first read about it.

If this post survives until tomorrow, it will surprise me

I'll be shocked beyond discription if this survives past noon. Some "big tent" FReeper will hit the abuse button and this will go down the memory hole.

I wonder if the judge has ever pondered what "Idaho" means in Ebonic.

How about telling the judge, "Yo, mo fo! I's gonna put da smack on yo a$$, beotch! I's gonna lock n' load my fly, mutha f-ing uzi and mo yo Constitution-hatin' skank a$$ down! YOUDAHO!!!
