Anna Nicole Smith
Is at the Supreme Court today. Any bets on which way it's gonna go? I'm torn: of course she's a gold digger, but the billionaire's son (the one who claims the entire estate goes to him and is not to be shared even with his own siblings) strikes me as a dirty, greedy, miserable bastard, too, so I kind of want her to get a bunch of the money and let him watch her spend it on T.V. It's too bad the court doesn't have the option of doing what a parent might: "That's it! Neither of you is getting it and it's all going to charity!" Suddenly, they might find a way to work it out.

I don't know why the supreme court is being bothered. I have to say I'm totally ignorant on the topic because I don't care. Maybe I'll think about it when I get rich or I marry some rich old man, but until then, I have my own problems.
Haha. I can just imagine the Judge telling the son to go to his room :)
Peachy: I believe the matter at hand is whether the Federal court was correct in reversing the State court's decision. It's not about the facts of Smith's case in particular. I also think the party bothering the court is the billionaire's son, because the state court told Smith to go pound sand, and the Federal court said "not so fast." So the son wasn't happy with having to share the money and decided to take it further. Ultimately, the question is whether Federal courts can have the final say on a probate matter -- which could certainly affect a lot of people. The Bush administration has actually sided with Smith on this issue and filed a "friend of the court" brief on her behalf. It'll be interesting to see what happens.
Ian: That guy strikes me as someone who needs to be reeled in somewhat.
Oh wow. I guess this is important. It's so funny that it's all because of her case.
I think she should get it. If only because she made him happy for that last little bit of his life. She probably did more for him in that short bit than those bitchy children of his ever did.
If you can't just go and leave all your money at the last minute to a big boobed stripper instead of your skanky greedy family, then it ain't America.
