SONIA SOTOMAYOR SWORN IN AS NEW JUSTICE

Justice Sonia Sotomayor took the judicial oath on Saturday, becoming the first Hispanic and third woman to serve on the Supreme Court in United States history. At just past 11 a.m., Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. administered a pair of oaths to her in two private ceremonies at the Supreme Court building, completing her ascent to a life-tenured position as the nation’s 111th justice, and the first to be nominated by a Democratic president since 1994.

ESCANDALO! COPS TASER PREGNANT MEXICAN WOMAN & GRANDFATHER

Now we all know that latino baptism parties can get a little loud, but thats no reason to start tasering the shit out of people!!

Cops in Prince William County, Virginia broke up a backyard baptism party that got loud and boozy.  The popo was responding to a noise complaint and are claiming that the owner of the house, a 55 year old grandfather, refused to identify himself and resisted arrest when they asked him to turn down the music.  The pregnant mother of the baptized boys then attempted to help the grandfather who was on the ground and her ass got some too!  However, according to the family the popo didn't even give the grandpappy  a chance to show his I.D. when they were already tasering him.  Both victims are facing criminal charges but the family is fighting back by claiming discrimination and use of excessive force.  Click here to check out the story on Fox News:

RICKY MARTIN LAUNCHES "POST CARDS FROM THE STARS"


Nothing says "I love you boo" like a video message e-card from Ricky Martin!

This wonderful masterpiece of an idea has been in Beta since October but will officially launch in 2010.  "Post Cards from The Stars" is a website where you pay $3.99 for a personalized video greeting starring Ricky Martin himself or other mystery stars not listed on the site (I'm reallyyy hoping that Charo or Don Francisco are included on the list!!).  

We're wondering if there are any "restrictions" on what the message can say...?  For $3.99 that bitch best get ready to deliver some nasty explicit shit!  After all, we're paying for the service and demand our money's worth!  I'm thinking a sexually explicit video message from a gay lover to another involving leather.  I'm sure Ricky Martin won't have any issues delivering those type of messages.   Click below to watch the video.


WTF: CRISTIANO RONALDO'S LEGS ARE WORTH WHAT?


When we read that the Real Madrid football team has purchased an insurance policy for Cristiano Ronaldo's legs we thought it would be fun to guess for how much.  Say $1MM just for fun?  Ok, perhaps $10MM?  Needless to say we were wayyyyyy off.  

Ronaldo's legs have been insured for $100MM EUROS (Thats $142MM dollars)!  God damn!  We can't even afford to make our monthly insurance payment for COBRA which is already subsided by the guvment!  In a effort to lift our spirits, here's a really hot pic of those legs.
