Sue Your Pants Off

There's a story in today's NYTimes about a judge in DC who is suing his dry cleaners for $67.3 million dollars after they lost a pair of his pants that he gave them, to make the waist bigger. Apparently, he claims that based on their signs saying "same day service" and "satisfation guaranteed," he's entitled to $18,000 per day for each day he's been withheld use of the pants. At trial, he cried as he described when the owners of the laundromat, Asian immigrants who work 70 hours per week, tried to pass off cheaper pants as the missing pair.

Is this country great, or what?
