Cold Hearted CNN Snake

May 10, 2010 Alejandro Calderon General

What a prick! Jeffrey Toobin, the fugly CNN reporter, asked his girlfriend to have an abortion when she told him she was pregnant. Casey Greenfield, a gorgeous attorney who could find a much better guy, (any guy would be better than Toobin) sued the pompous prick for child support a few months ago.

According to the Daily News, when Casey refused to have an abortion the cold hearted bastard told her that, “she was going to regret it, that she shouldn’t expect any help from him.” What is with successful men? Do they sell their souls to be successful? Or does one have to be a callous prick to get anywhere in the world today?

The man also seems to think he’s above obeying court orders. After a Manhattan Family judge ordered Toobin to pay child support, he refused to pay the full amount. Greenfield’s lawyer had to threaten to garnish his wages.

Hey Toobin, I don’t know you, but on behalf of women everywhere who have dated a cold hearted snake: go fuck yourself.

No LSAT Required At This TTTT

April 9, 2010 Alejandro Calderon General

It’s as though the ABA sits up at night and ponders how to make law degrees worthless. Their latest grand idea? To do allow a few law schools to accept a limited number of students without LSAT scores. Why not just hand out degrees at Walmart along with an application to work there?

In an effort to admit more minorities, the University of St. Thomas School of Law will begin to accept some students without LSATs. They claim that several other schools are considering doing the same. The program will only look at college grades and college entrance exams.

Come on, ABA, don’t stop with the LSAT. Why bother to even look at GPA? Why not make the only requirement for entrance to law school that you can qualify for a loan that will compound in interest and penalty charges and destroy your life?

Facebook Family Feud

April 8, 2010 Alejandro Calderon General

I don’t think he’ll be buying a mother’s day gift this year. Lane New,16, filed a harassment complaint against his mother for reading and posting on his Facebook account. The teenager claims his mother’s actions damaged his reputation. The mother didn’t deny it, saying only, “If I’m found guilty on this it is going to be open season on parents.”

The snoopy mother said that when her son didn’t log off his Facebook account she went ahead and changed his password so he couldn’t use it and posted items on the account. Lane has asked that the mother have no contact with him. He lives with his grandparents.

Mommy Dearest is going with the I’m not a crook defense: “He left it logged in on my computer; It’s not like I stole his laptop.” She just hacked and snooped, she didn’t steal. So if a safe is left open, it’s alright to take stuff out?

Michigan College Offers A Money Back Guarantee!

April 8, 2010 Alejandro Calderon General

Confession: I have been so depressed this week that it has been difficult for me to even get out of bed and write. My first smile of the week just came when I saw this article. A Michigan community college is offering a refund on tuition if the graduates aren’t employed within one year. YES!!

True, it’s a community college and it’s only for training courses that cost around $2400, but it’s a start. The program is expected to be highly competitive, and employers who heard about the program have already started calling.

Although there are some who still believe all that is needed is information from the schools. The article quotes Russ Whitehurst from the Brookings Institution who says that: I would rather see community colleges and technical institutions providing more information about program-completion rates among students and their employment outcomes. This kind of transparency would allow prospective applicants to make more informed decisions instead of gambling their futures away.

How To Deal With Evil Debt Collectors

April 7, 2010 Alejandro Calderon General

I know that there is a lot of pain out there (because you write and tell me) and many of you are having a difficult time dealing with debt collectors, not to mention Aunt Sallie and Uncle Access. I’ve linked an article below that is full of helpful tips for dealing with all kinds of debt collectors and how you can fight back.

This video was actually shot in a debt collection agency and shows how a debt collector’s evil mind operates. They hunt their prey with gusto and are proud of it! Don’t watch on a full stomach.
