Apparently, there really IS justice in this world
And it starts on my birthday, no less. In Yahoo Headlines today: Paris Hilton going to jail for 45 days"Hilton... must go to jail on June 5 and she will not be allowed any work release, furloughs, use of an alternative jail or any electronic monitoring in lieu of jail, Superior Court Judge Michael T. Sauer ruled after a hearing." YES! (Snoopy dance inserted here)
"As a city prosecutor said during closing arguments that Hilton deserved jail time, Hilton's mother, Kathy, laughed. When the judge ruled, Kathy Hilton then blurted out: "May I have your autograph?" Way to go, Mom. Whether that was meant to be sarcastic or not.
"Paris Hilton was among a series of witnesses who took the stand during the hearing. She maintained she was unaware her license was suspended and thought she was allowed to drive for work purposes." Work purposes? Since when is club hopping, shopping, and attending fashion shows considered to be work, you twit?
"She said that when an officer who stopped her in January made her sign a document stating her license was suspended, she thought he was mistaken and did not actually look at the document...A copy of the document Hilton signed on Jan. 15 was found in the car's glove compartment, court papers say." That'll teach her to sign something while she's drunk.
45 days. What will she do without makeup and Versace?
When my hubby takes me out for the requisite birthday dinner on that day, I'll be sure to raise my glass of red sangria and toast the Justice Gods.
45 days. All is right in the universe.
