The 10th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals has upheld the dismissal of a defamation suit filed by an association of schools for troubled youths against a United Press International reporter. The 10th Circuit on Tuesday agreed with a trial judge that the federal court in Utah has no authority over the case because Thomas Houlahan, who researched a story in 2003 about schools operated by the St. George-based World Wide Association of Specialty Programs and Schools, lives in Washington, D.C. In its suit, WWASP had alleged that Houlahan falsely told parents that school officials abused their children.

You still expect us to believe these are random?

They really are. Slanted, though, in that I choose which ones go into the database to begin with. Hit http://fornits.com/quotes.php?help to see what's in there.
