Attorney sued after biting off part of man's nose

The AP

MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) -- A Memphis attorney bit off part of a man's nose during a fight in a restaurant bathroom. A lawsuit filed by Greg Herbers claims attorney Mark Lambert attacked him last June after Herbers asked two men in a bathroom stall to get out so that he could use it.

The suit states that Lambert was at a urinal and had been carrying on a conversation with the men in the stall. Herbers claims Lambert pushed and grabbed him and bit off and swallowed part of his nose.

Lambert told WMC-TV he did bite off part of Herbers' nose, but spit it out. He claims he acted in self defense after Herbers assaulted him.

The police report said Herbers entire left nostril was missing. Herbers claims he suffered permanent disfigurement and will need plastic surgery and possibly a prosthetic nose.

Herbers is asking for $5 million in damages.

Well, Mr. Herbers should consider himself lucky...he only lost (part of) a nose...AND...stands a good chance of getting a lucrative payday.

Consider a bigger joke...

The continuing saga of an incredibly shrinking school district at the tip of Southern Illinois...

A cruel joke where a whole herd (guess that should be flock...ain't that the proper term for large groups of birds/vultures?)...descend upon a malleable group of officials presiding over the carcass of a once great school district...and extract their pound of flesh.

And these willing "victims" don't have a "payday" looming...like Mr. Herbers.

NO!

In fact, these "victims" (co-conspirators) hold a meeting each month so that they can approve - without question - thousands and thousands and thousands of dollars for the vultures to feather their nests!

Hey, Ron...enough with the "intro"...get to the damn joke!

WOW, folks...chill out!

'Tis the holidays...'tis the time for yuletide cease fires and all.

Okay, okay, here goes...
