Process & Jury

Thursday, Oct. 23, 2008 - 12:30 a.m.

The counterfeit iPod has been received at the mailing address provided by PayPal.

I'm now waiting for my refund. I have proof of return delivery to the seller in the ten-day window that is required by PayPal, and I acquired a letter from an expert saying that the iPod I was sold was counterfeit.

Not sure how long the process will take from here, but I've done everything I can possibly do from this end, except file for mail fraud against the seller, and I'm probably going to do that in addition to the above, because even if I get my money back, they're still guilty of that.

Woe be unto the eBay seller who even THINK they're getting the best of me. Heh.

I am revisiting the seller's last name, and wondering if it's of Nigerian origin. Hmmm.

Okay, in the Nuttier Than Mouse Droppings In The Planters Factory department, we have Philip J. Berg, who has filed suit against Obama asking for proof that he was not born in Kenya. Because the Obama administration wisely chooses NOT to placate barmy citizens like this, the guy is now saying that because no answer was filed, the accusation in the lawsuit therefore must be true.

This reminds me of that big sparkling dingbat up in the Pacific Northwest who filed suit to prove he'd discovered Jim Morrison of the Doors living incognito on a horse ranch. Because the Morrison family didn't bother to answer the suit, the dingbat therefore says he's telling the truth.

Jiminy crickets.

In other news. the Britney Spears car accident while driving without a California license case has ended in a mistrial, which means at least some of the twelve people selected for this trial had no earthly idea how to cross-reference the date Miz Spears acquired her California license with the date she had her accident.

I am presuming that some of these people served on the same trial that acquited OJ, but I am probably wrong.

That's enough. Have a Thursday.
