This Will Only Encourage People Like the Wet Willy Whacker and the Kancho Kommando

WTF?

Ed Darrell at the inimitable Millard Fillmore's Bathtub warns us of a horrific legal development: the Wedgie Killer had his conviction overturned!

The Utah Supreme Court today threw out the manslaughter conviction of Erik Kurtis Low, who killed a Park City man after the victim gave him a “wedgie.”

As Heinlein says, an armed society is a polite society.

In completely unrelated news, I realized a couple of months ago late in my son's t-ball season that one of his coaches was the guy who used to bully me in 3rd and 4th grade, in part by tweaking my then proportionally freakish ears. I wasn't armed back then. I am now. But really, living well is the best revenge.

    "Living well is the best revenge"?

    Wonderful expression. I just don't know how true it is, you don't see it turning up in a lot of opera plots. "Ludwig, maddened by the poisoning of his entire family, wreaked vengeance on Gunther in the third act by living well."
