Anna Nicole Smith Case Goes to Supreme Court

annanicolemithtrial.jpg
The Supreme Court of the United States has agreed to hear Anna Nicole Smith's probate case. The case of Vickie Lynn Marshall (aka, Anna Nicole Smith) vs. E. Pierce Marshall centers on whether a federal bankruptcy court can rule on wills and estates.

Anna Nicole Smith's laywer claims she will personally be at the Supreme Court during the hearing. Let the media circus begin!

Why would the Supreme Court agree to hear Anna Nicole Smith's case? Two reasons: The Rule of Four and TrimSpa.

It takes four justices to agree to hear a case. Remember, there are seven men on the Supreme Court--four of which are presumed to be straight (Stephens and Breyer are iffy). Plus you have Ginsburg--you know what I'm talking about. And you're going to tell me Thomas wasn't leading the charge? He's a swinger baby!

Another victory for corporate America. I mean do you think the old Anna Nicole Smith would have had a snowball's chance in hell of getting her case heard had the TrimSpa corporation not done their magic? Let's not forget the silicon-industrial complex here.

LA Times:

In 1993, Smith was Playboy's Playmate of the Year, and shortly afterward, the 26-year-old married Texas oil tycoon J. Howard Marshall. He was 89, and a fan of her strip act.

He died a year later, and Smith has fought with Marshall's son, Pierce, over an estate valued at more than $1.6 billion.

A Texas probate judge ruled that Marshall's son was his sole heir and entitled to his fortune. However, a federal bankruptcy judge in California later ruled that Marshall's son had schemed to move assets from his father's estate. Smith was awarded $88 million in damages.

Although the U.S. 9th Circuit Court of Appeals concluded that the probate ruling should stand, the Supreme Court agreed to hear the dispute to decide when, if ever, bankruptcy judges can rule on probate matters.

Is it any coincidence that the Supreme Court grants Anna Nicole Smith certiorari only after she loses all that weight? I think not!

Presenting the certiorari worthy versus uncertiorari worthy Anna Nicole Smith. more...

Hurricane Rita hits: Adult Entertainers, Single Mothers Disproportionally Affected

Things were just about getting back to normal in New Orleans. The lushes were out in force, transvestyte hookers were trickling back into the city, and a strip club had reopened to service the needs of armies of insurance adjusters and lonely FEMA workers. There were even rumors of a new Girls Gone Wild: Hurricane Victims edition about to begin production work. Alas, it will all have to wait. Damn you Rita! Damn you to hell!!!

If you want to see the picture accompanying this story, better check out Riehl World View--and yes, that picture actually was part of a news story. Because journalists are after the important scoops. Notice that both the Reuters story and the pic that Dan Riehl have is of the same stripper. Why do I have the feeling that one Reuters reporter is a very satisfied customer? Reuters :

In a sign that things may be returning to normal in New Orleans, strip shows are back in the city's famous French Quarter.

Erotic dancers and strippers are entertaining crowds of police, firefighters and military personnel instead of the usual audiences of drunken conventioneers and tourists in Bourbon Street's Deja Vu club, which reopened this week.

It's the first strip joint to resume business, three weeks after Hurricane Katrina struck in the worst natural disaster ever to hit the United States.

"It's nice to get back to work, and all these men need some entertainment," Dawn Beasley, 27, a dancer at the club, said on Tuesday night. "They haven't seen anybody but their buddies for two weeks."

The crowd hooted and hollered as women peeled off their tops and gyrated, as customers tucked tips into their G-strings.

But don't you worry. FEMA cards are accepted for lap dances. Via QandO this Times Online story entitled Vote Republican for Free Lap Dances. I knew there was a reason I voted for that guy!:
Interviewed by a reporter for the local TV station, Abby over at Baby Dolls said she had seen many clients using their debit cards. She had nothing but praise for this exercise in government largesse. “A lot of customers have been coming in from Louisiana and they’ve been real happy about the $1.75 beers and they’re really nice.” It was only fair, she added that they should get a little publicly funded help. “You lost your whole house, then, why not?” she said. “You might want some beer in a strip club. There are a lot of guys out there that like to do that.”
With the mandatory evacuation of Houston's adult entertainment establishment, what will thousands of single mothers do to feed their children? Just one more way in which in Bush's America, single mothers are once again affected more deeply by natural disasters. ;-)

57% of College Girls Want Sex with Angelina Jolie

A new survey by Playboy indicates that while only 54% of college coeds would cheat on their boyfriends with Brad Pitt, 57% would hook up with Angelina Jolie. Who can blame them?

Flash News:

HereÂ’s some kinky news for Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie: A lot of female college students want to sleep with them. Both of them.

According to Playboy magazine, 54 percent of college gals would cheat on their boyfriend with Pitt and 57 percent want to get jiggy with Jolie.

In other Angelina Jolie related polls (hey, pollsters have to do something in off-election years too!), 27 percent of 18-59 year old women say that they would 'most like to resemble Anglina Jolie in the bedroom'.

In an unscientific poll conducted by The Jawa Report, 100% of husbands say they wish their wives would resemble Angelina Jolie in the bedroom, too. The margin of error in our poll is plus or minus zero percent. more...

Brothels in Rhode Island?

It seems that a loophole allows brothels to operate legally in Rhode Island. AP:

Sex is for sale in the state capital, and police here say there's little they can do about it. Although soliciting sexual favors on the street is illegal in Rhode Island, authorities say a loophole in state law allows prostitution behind closed doors — including in storefronts that advertise as massage parlors and spas just blocks from City Hall. "We don't have a law criminalizing prostitution indoors," said Providence Police Lt. Thomas Verdi, who leads the department's anti-prostitution efforts.
You'll have to excuse the light blogging for the rest of the day. I'm heading up to Providence on some, er, urgent business....

Hat tip to James Joyner.

Company Releases X-Ray Glasses

x_ray_glasses.jpg

X-Ray glasses are finally here. It's like a lifelong dream come true. Via Ghost of the Flea we learn that Advanced Intelligence has released a new CCD camera capable of seeing through clothes. And even though they mention that the camera can see through clothes in the very first sentence on their web page, the page later adds that you shouldn't use the camera to view anything 'indecent' like, er, looking through 'tight clothes, swimsuites, or sun dresses'.

The. Thought. Never. Croseed. My. Mind.

Now excuse me while I slip on these glasses.... more...
