It seems that other countries have judges wackier than ours....
MANILA (Reuters) - A Philippine judge who claimed he could see into the future and admitted consulting imaginary mystic dwarfs has asked for his job back after being fired by the country's Supreme Court.
"They should not have dismissed me for what I believed," Florentino Floro, a trial judge in the capital's Malabon northern suburb, told reporters after filing his appeal.
Floro was sacked last month and fined 40,000 pesos ($780) after a three-year investigation found he was incompetent, had shown bias in a case he was trying and had criticized court procedure, a ruling showed.
He told investigators that three mystic dwarfs -- Armand, Luis and Angel -- helped him carry out healing sessions during breaks in his chambers.
C'mon - Angel ran a law firm for a year - his advice has gotta be worth
something....

I guess Lestat wasn't available then?

Baggy I guess I can understand...not really understand...but deal, but trousers strapped around the knees? Boggling.
Timelies,
So Alias and Lost were both
deathalicious
last night. I wonder if JJ needed to get some aggression out after working with Tom Cruise.
ION, I think I'm come done with something. My throat is sore in that right before a nasty cold way. Which means, since I'm going to a Con tomorrow, I'm apparently going to be a generator of Con Plague instead of a recipient this year. Joy.
Oh yeah, Lost. All I have to say is....
HOLY CRAP!

Actually, I was
waiting for Hurley to come walking in behind Libby and either get shot and killed himself, or enter into mortal combat with Michael.

That's funnier because I'm rereading Sock right now. Although -- does the judge himself actually admit that his little friends are imaginary? Probably not. That's too bad, because it'd be pretty cool if he did.

It isn't quite as scary when you read that the top spot was still only 11% though.

I don't know. Let me tell you something, when it's dark and I'm all alone and I'm scared or freaked out or whatever, I always think, 'What would Buffy do?'.
Of course then I remember I'm not endowed with preternatural strength and freak out again, but that's neither here nor there.
Sean -- so was I!
Top Chef: Wow,
the promos were really no indication at all! I was fully expecting Harold to be in big trouble and for the main ingredients to be disgusting. I also thought meanly of how much Stephen would have enjoyed the ingredients but also that he wouldn't have been able to do them justice. I was very pleased that Harold did so well and also that Dave pulled off his dish as well. I was very disappointed that Lee Anne didn't make it to the final -- is she Top Chef's Austin Scarlett? Now, Harold MUST WIN.
