Only In America!!!

http://cosmos.bcst.yahoo.com/up/player/popup/?rn=3906861&cl=11444512&ch=4226713&src=news What is he going to do with it IF she doesn't pay and gives it back instead??????? I guess he could always just put it in a jar and place it on his mantle as a conversation piece!!

 

thats pretty bad. i highly doubt that will stand up in trial as it was a donation and i dont think the wife is legally required to pay him back for it...

 

as long as there is a scumbag lawyer who thinks he (she, don't want to offend) can make a few bucks, it will make it to court

 

At $1.5 Mil, I would consider selling one! :-D

That is really just stupid. I think the judge should backhand that arsehat 3 times in the face, and fine him for all the related trial expenses. :tas

Reminds me of an Eagles song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L3ORwO5xDUE

 

Not exactly what I was thinking at first. Lorena Bobbett came to mind with Stubbys remark about putting it in a jar.

 

Nah, she threw it out the window, didn't she? LOL

 

He has most likely shortened his lifespan,given up his most precious thing and she stabs him in the back "pun intended" by disallowing him to see his kids.

If they try and take her kidney by force she can always get one of these:-D

Personally I can relate to the poor guy. Get your heart ripped out, at least get compensated some way, kidney is close enough

Damn Red death you really could use a spell checker or take a little more time I could barely read that.

 

ya for some reason i lost my ability to spell when i started middle school at 6th grade befor that i constantly had 100's on my spelling test.

o well thats why i use big vocab it makes up a lil diff. rofl!

 

I'm not so sure it is his kidney anymore, as virtually every cell in the human body gets replaced every seven years or so. Even though the replicant kidney will likely have his DNA, this is just a copy of the original, as the kidney that he donated got systematically deleted from her body.

 

I have always thought that if you gave something to someone, it was considered as a gift. Nobody held a gun on him during the operation, did they?

 

lol naw he just an "indian giver" (to quote the crap the teach use in school)

 

Didn't look like no Indian I've ever seen.

 

lol its a term my school used to discribe gift take backers

 

I do know what it means. I have heard it once or twice in my 58 years. Just playing around with words.

 

How shallow is that for a teacher! Makes me wonder if they have ever met a person of Indian origin, be that Native American or Far Eastern. I have lived as a minority amongst them, and they are overly generous to a fault - even to caucasian Westerners who oftentimes are nothing but overly critical of them and their lifestyle.

 

yes well look at the society we live in then they wonder why there are things like racism and crimes!!!!!!!!

 

@Prometheos

Now that is humor at it's finest, nice to see a pro at work LOL

 

It wasn't his any longer after he GAVE it to her.

 

Sorry for the late reply on this thread but my modem blew up,I just want to add this woman also had an affair 18 months after he'd given her the kidney and now she won't let him see his kids.

Damn this woman is cold,I'd want my kidney back:-D

 

It's VERY old, here's one explanation

very interesting but it realy doesnt suprise me early settlers were *beeps*:-D

 

I realize it is old. My point was, regardless of how old the "saying" is, a teacher in today's PC school-world should have known better than to use it.

 

lol ya they taught us back in like 98

 

I think it's gotten kinda ridiculous how everyone is offended by something now days. It changes so fast you loose track of what nationality wants to be called what this week. Skins are becoming thinner and thinner.

 

I'm so tired of hearing that "gotten ridiculous how everyone is offended" and "skins need to be thicker" argument over and over again. Funny how it repeatedly comes out until that person is themselves offended by something and then they complain to the highest mountain and feel justified in doing so. Interesting how that works.....

 

I think I just offended myself. Oops. :neener

 

wow, Something hit a nerve there?

 

Not really....hypocrisy is VERY old too...

 

I know exactly what you mean! But the problem is most people really aren't that easily offended--its just a few that make it seem that way. At my job I am one of the few white people there--Everyone I work with directly (co-workers) is Hispanic, and 75% of my clients are either Hispanic or Native American. I find that I , at times am tripping over myself worried that I have said something that might be offensive and most of my co-workers will laugh at me for trying so hard, because they are not as thin skinned as you might think. There are always a few in every crowd and those are always the ones who ruin it for everyone. But it is always helpful to keep it in mind that it is usually a minority. :celebrate

 

To begin with none of that was aimed at you, so I have no idea why your so offended or what your getting at with me.

 

Where did it say your name in my posts Darlene? None of it was aimed at you - I too simply responded to content you posted. It seems I'm the one who hit a nerve and you're the one who got offended

 

Im offended by your offense to yourself. Can i do that?

 

All my children have Native American heritage their grandmother (fathers side) was born on an Indian Reservation in Oklahoma.
The other side are Irish, so there could be some real good jokes come from that. Got to be able to laugh at yourself or life will eat ya.

 

Actually, I thought the term "Indian Giver" came from the Indian Traders (i.e. white guys who were supposedly trading with indigenous races), who were always making promises to the Indian nations, and then taking the 'offer' back, once they got the deal. Like giving the Black Hills in South Dakota to the Lakota, then finding gold there, and trespassing for gold, afterwards, even though the land wasn't theirs.

Maybe, I had the term, (which I don't particularly like), all back-to-front?? :confused

 

Hmm, looks like it's related to different cultural value systems, then. Like some cultures don't know what 'lend' means - they think you're either giving to them, or you aren't. Getting a bit off-topic here, sorry about that.

 

well we could tie it back by saying that the cheating lady obvious has a different value system than her husband and obviously doesn't have the same idea of sharing as her husband---how's that? :confused

 

That's more like personal values/ethics to me, but yeah, I get the drift. Which is which the original post was about, since the dude seems more interested in publicity/financial gain than a third-hand kidney.

 

I'm sure it's to bring a LOT of attention to her infidelity more then anything.

 

well that seems to be a good way--what better way to generate interest in some stranger's infidelity than to go to the media demanding her kidney! (a pound of flesh?)
