Somehow I doubt this was anticipated for court...

Modern life just gets weirder every day:

CHICAGO Feb 24, 2005 — A man who says his former lover deceived him by getting pregnant using semen obtained through oral sex can sue for emotional distress but not theft, an appeals court has ruled....The Illinois Appeals Court said Wednesday that Phillips can press a claim for emotional distress after learning Irons had used his sperm to have a baby, but agreed that however the baby was conceived, Irons didn't steal the sperm.

"She asserts that when plaintiff 'delivered' his sperm, it was a gift," the decision said. "There was no agreement that the original deposit would be returned upon request."

Lemme get this straight: if you have oral sex w/ a woman, and she "saves" the...result...and uses it to get pregnant, it's legally treated as if you simply got her pregnant yourself...

In what way does this even make sense, at all?

Way I'd see it, you going the oral route instead of regular intercourse is obviously a message saying "I do NOT want you having my children". If she's gross enough to pull this kind of garbage that's on her.

Cellphone Viruses

This just in: your cellphone can now catch the Clap...

Santa Monica has become the U.S. port of entry for the first virus capable of spreading over mobile phone networks, according to security experts. The so-called Cabir virus, developed in a test-tube type setting months ago, infected a pair of wireless phones on display at a Santa Monica retail shop, it was announced over the weekend by F-Secure, a virus protection company.

Now the virus may be on the loose in Santa Monica, since anyone with a phone that uses "Bluetooth" frequency and a Symbian operating platform, may have been infected while passing within 100 yards of the display. Sprint, Motorola and Nokia are among the companies that manufacture cell phones using those technologies....This is the first reported case in the United States of the Cabir virus, which can drain batteries, delete files and dial expensive numbers, according to news reports.


BTW: I don't have a cellphone, at all. Why? Because I can barely even stand it when people call me at home, allowing them to reach me anywhere else would be masochistic. Just how damn important are you that you need people to reach you in the f%#*ing grocery store?
