Steal Ben Stein's Money!
2000-01-13 15:53:49
Jeeze, a lot of people these days are real selfish with their money. But not Ben Stein. Almost everyday he goes on TV and gives everyday people just like you and me a chance to take home some of his money. That's why it makes me so mad when some people aren't willing to play by the rules. They could have gone on Comedy Central and gotten a chance to get Ben Steins money fair and square. But noooooo, they had hold him up in his garage with a hand gun!
They took all his money and his watch and his briefcase. Ummm, people, the name of the game is not "Win Ben Stein's Personal Possessions!" I bet they really sucked at playing Trivial Pursuit as children. You know, I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if Ben Stein didn't want to give people an opportunity to win his money any more. I mean you give and give and give and people just want to take and take and take.
Too bad he won't be able to bring charges against the guys who did it. There's no way he could prove that he didn't want to give them that money-- not after everyone in the world watched him give it away on national television over and over again. Not to mention they fact that they didn't actually hurt him. Sure they accosted him in his own garage and waved a gun in his face, but he could have resisted if he wanted to.
And what did he expect? Walking around with $1,000 and his paycheck in his wallet! I just hope he's learned his lesson the little whore....

Poor Metallica. All they want is to continue to put out the same weak "Heavy Metal" they've been churning out since the "And Justice For All" days? and make gooey wads of cash in the process. The problem is, people aren't buying their bound for the heavy metal scrap heap, over-produced, uninspired, tired crap. And let's face it, their various commercial endorsements won't pay for the lifestyle they've become comfortably accustomed to. Resorting to lawsuits makes perfect sense, when you need spending money. But just one lawsuit isn't going to pay their bills. So, to aid Metallica, I've composed an open letter to the boys in the band, with suggestions as to whom else they might sic their lapdog lawyers on... (More...)
Robert Helms makes a living volunteering for medical experiments. Though Helms — and almost all guinea pigs — get paid for their participation in medical trials, they are still "volunteers" according to a byzantine legal code. They are compensated for their time, not paid to ingest medicine. He and "guinea pigs" like him have learned the intimate art of taking catheters in their veins, tubes in their intestines, EKG electrodes on their nipples. (More...)
