Amazing, a story on somebody in the general public with a track citation and the mark actually happened!

The morale of the story? No matter what shenanigans you pull, DON'T mess with the IRS! From Al Capone to BALCO.

My favorite image of the day was Jeff Skilling of Enron getting hauled in with handcuffs. Lets hope they nail Kenneth Lay next.

Curbing George Steinbrenner would be a nice idea too. Local curmudgeon on-line columnist started his latest column this way

<<Now it's personal. The "A-Wad" trade has pushed me ever closer to the unthinkable edge of giving up on baseball.

"SportsCenter" has now been taken away from everyone on the West Coast and everyone who doesn't care about the Skankees and the Dead Sox. Yes, we can wait for "Baseball Tonight" to get to the A's and Giants, but it will be well past bedtime.

Every pitch, every breath, every chat board posting, every conceivably questionable move by both managers will be breathlessly relayed to us by the East Coast-centric dweebs in charge of nightly sports highlights.

Did you see the nonsense over the weekend: Greatest Trade Ever! Greatest Team Ever Assembled! Somehow, ESPN managed to outdo and overrun its ludicrous coverage of LeBron James....>>

If you want to read the rest of the rant:

My father must have written that. I listened to virtually the same rant from him last night.

You should listen to your father, he is a wise man.
