He felt it was the weatherman's fault since he hadn't said it was going to rain. This guy also talked about constantly emailing and calling the weatherman at his work, acting like they were buddies. This guy sounded like a total stalker. If I was that weatherman I would file a restraining order after that case.

    What is wrong with some people?!?!
    I watched those for a while when I lived with my grandma. She didnt have cable and Id get up early in the morning when nobody else was awake, turn the TV on for noise and revel in the crazy. Sometimes knowing that ppl like that are out there makes you feel better about yourself lol
    I saw one (People's Court i thiiink) where the guy had 21 kids with different women. He was suing one of the mothers because he didn't think he was the true father of her kid and he wanted the child support he'd paid to her back. Pretty sure the kid did turn out to be his and the point was moot but the hilarious part was that between all 21 of the kids he was paying child support for each mom got like 17 dollars a month per child haha

      Now imagine being raised that it was as real as Santy Claws. Hispanics be mean to their kids.

      On a happier note, as an adult we now know El Cucuy is just some jolly radio host!

        I lived in La Puente as a small child. Mexicans also be mean to other people's kids.

        El Cucuy & La Llorona are real-er than Sandy Claws. La Llorona lives here, too, in the Vegas washes. She was a Downwinder woman who took advantage of a flash flood to drown her atomic-radiated babies, or so I've heard.

              oh god. I forgot about la Llorona. That one is a real sad story.

              Our version is that she took her kids to drown in the river because of her cheating husband ala Madea.

                Who do you blame? The him, or the hers?

                Seems like there was some stupid decision making on some few people's parts...

                    LOL! I was told, just a couple hours ago, that it was Friday, today. I said, no it's not. Then looked at the calendar on the computer... er, yes it is. Oops. When did that happen??

                      I don't know what you people are talking about. It's been Saturday for 41 minutes now.
                      life itself was a lightsaber in his hands; even in the face of treachery and death and hopes gone cold, he burned like a candle in the darkness. Like a star shining in the black eternity of space.

                      "But those men who know anything at all about the Light also know that there is a fierceness to its power, like the bare sword of the law, or the white burning of the sun." Suddenly his voice sounded to Will very strong, and very Welsh. "At the very heart, that is. Other things, like humanity, and mercy, and charity, that most good men hold more precious than all else, they do not come first for the Light. Oh, sometimes they are there; often, indeed. But in the very long run the concern of you people is with the absolute good, ahead of all else..."

                        Say, can you tell me the winning numbers for the lottery, so I can go get a ticket before the day's out?

                          I literally have to look at my cell to see what the actual date is. I mean. It's 2014. Sometime in September. What more do I really need to know? I've been known to say Merry Christmas to customers in July simply because I knew they wouldn't hear it anyways.

                            It's 2.30 Sat arvo here... it's been tomorrow for hours and hours.

                            When we were first dating, Torey used to joke that he was dating a girl from the future.

                              I'm pretty sure there's a time cop around here to prevent that. It's very annoying.

                                Ya know, that little exchange there made me remember a theory I worked on when I was a kid and learned about the International Date Line. Hopping on a jet, near the north pole, and circling it, against the earth's rotation *should* send one back into yesterday, and after one more merry go round, the day before. You know, depending on how close to the pole one could fly and maintain that high speed, yet, slow right turn.
