Title: Turn to CNN
Post by: Rayquarian on December 16, 2007, 03:04:17 PM
They're going to talk about video games this hour.  100i dollars I bet that the video game segment is stupid.

Most of the stuff you see on tv about video games and ratings are still stuff like public service announcements.  Nothing surprising, really.

I'm sure that this is a repeat that I've seen 10 times already.  CNN had something last year about video games.

Yes, he's from Florida. And he's very likley to be disbarred soon. Threatening judges, perjury, harassment, and contacting another party directly aren't good things to have on your resume.

Plus sending porn to judges won't help your rep.

Ah, I forgot about that one. And saying that all judges are in the pocket of Take-Two, and trying to call Jeb Bush and George W. Bush to testify.
