      You ought to have posted that as AC, because the RIAA will be suing you next for calling them pointless and annoying. ;)

    If employees of the RIAA step outside and it's raining, they immediately think of suing God.

    Umm..., I am not sure how it works at your doctors office, but a circumcision should not involve your ass at all. I would seek a 2nd opinion

    Something tells me that he isn't going to comment here, as, I'm sure, all such comments would be admissable. It's fine to talk about other people's cases, but prudent to be quiet about your own.

    Yes, no way I would say publicly that the motion is frivolous, meritless, and an abuse of the judicial system.
