    One of the hardest parts of Jim Pastor's job is convincing people that he exists: He's a milkman. "The reaction is always the same," Pastor said. "People say, 'Really? A milkman? Like in the old days?' They always have a hard time believing it." Pastor owns a Santa Ana-based delivery service that contracts with Rockview Farms, one of the largest family-owned dairies in Southern California. Each week, Pastor and his team of 14 milkmen drive their refrigerated trucks to more than 4,800 homes along routes in Los Angeles and Orange counties. They arrive in the wee morning hours and dash...

    LONDON (Reuters) – A milkman who admitted he delivered cannabis as well as pints to elderly customers to ease their aches and pains, was spared jail Friday.

"He said he sold the cannabis to existing customers because they were old and had aches and pains," said prosecutor Sarah Statham. ... Holding, who admitted supplying and possession of the drug at a previous hearing,...

    The more we get into this election season, and the more Rudy's name is bandied about, the more the old memories surface. I remembered a report, a psychological examination of his Father, the ex-felon, who had served time in Sing Sing. And it struck me...like Father, like Son! Everything about Rudy reminds me of his Father, so aptly described, in that report. Self pity as a justification of his bad judgement; Egocentric to emphisize himself, his needs, his greatness; Personality deviate (flip flop) to "fit in", willing to do or be anything to get elected. These are facts contained in...

    Next to that clown Harry Potter, the most anticipated book this summer here in New York City is reporter Wayne Barrett's blockbuster biography of Rudolph Giuliani, the Big Apple's badass mayor. Giuliani, as you might have heard, was recently running for U.S. Senate against Hillary Clinton, but withdrew from that race following a prostate cancer diagnosis and some serious girl troubles. But TSG thinks poor Rudy was also dreading the July 11 release of Barrett's detailed examination of the controversial Republican. While Barrett's book--"Rudy!: An Investigative Biography of Rudolph Giuliani"--is a reporting tour de force filled with revelations about Giuliani,...
