NPR Investigation Busts A Corrupt Judge

Former Georgia Judge, Amanda Williams

(What a looker)

I heard this story when it first aired on my local NPR station, and couldn't wait to hear a follow-up.

So happy that this crusty bitch will be facing charges, and most likely removed from the Court forever.  Thank you Ira Glass and the This American Life show.  They are changing the world in a good way.

THE INTERNET NEEDS TO BE FREE, AND IF THE "MAIN STREAM MEDIA" CAN'T HANDLE THAT, WE, HERE IN THE WORLD HAVE OTHER WAYS. YOUR SITES WILL DIE. THINK.

I love Story Corps. It's all real.

Sandwich Friday?

Ok, when it's just YOU at home, and you have nothing "thawed" (or you don't want to admit that you do have anything thawed), it is time for a PB&J With Doritoes..

First, you have to toast your "healthy" Whole Wheat "non-white" bread.  If it takes more than 3 minutes, you might have Muslim bread, or a bad French made toaster...

Ok, put your healthy toasted AMERICAN bread on a paper plate, or better yet, a disposable Styrofoam plate riding on a river of Crude Oil.  Um, I don't have those..

All you have to do at this point is spread the foreign born - job killing "Jelly" on the Left side, and good old AMERICAN, budget cutting Peanut Butter on the right side. (I wish it was not organic).

Ok, that "right" thinking Peanut Butter needs some cover, so load it up with them chips!

SO close I can taste it...Put the left on top of the right (thus simulating their attempt to steifel the will of the American people, that we told them to think of in the first place). 

Once assembled, you have to SLAM this thing with an iron fist, thus mixing the left and right among all those broken Independant chips.  They now [all] will work together to fill your belly with tasty goodness, and balance the budget fairly among all Americans.  Garnish this dream with more chips, and you have a sandwich that almost any vegetarian can get behind.

This American Life

The show airs on Saturday's at noon here in DC and this week they re-ran the episode from the week before. I contacted the station and they forwarded the email to the shows producer. They guy actually responded to me directly to apologize and explain what happened. What a great thing to do! Check out the show and the web site.
