Chief Justice

While John Roberts is being "raked over the coals" to find out where he stands on various issues, he has appeared to most of us as a bright and friendly sort of person. There is another side to John that most of us don't know about.
The Austin American Statesman has done some research into the background of John Roberts and discovered that he's quite the "party animal" also.

Here are just a few of his accomplishments that the Senate Judiciary Committee isn't concerned about.
(1) The character "Bluto" (played by John Belushi) in the movie "Animal House" was based on Robert's behavior in law school.
(2) Roberts has won the showmanship award three years in a row at the Goat Cookoff in Brady.
(3) He sometimes wears "Bugs Bunny" underwear under his robes.
(4) He worked as a Chippendale's dancer while in law school.
(5) Every year he enters the "Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest" at Coney Island (under a ficticious name) and has
come in second several times.
(6) He tried out for "American Idol" singing "Jive Talkin'".
(7) He is a founder of the "Mork & Mindy" fan club.
(8) He worked as a rodeo clown named Johnny Bob.
(9) Roberts can tie a cherry stem into a knot with his tongue.
(10) He has a tattoo of reds lips on his butt.
(11) He has been thrown out of several bars for cheating at pool.

...and there are more. This sounds like "my kinda judge". Finally, no more "stuffed shirt" type as the Chief Justice. It's going to be very interesting to see his rulings in the future. For one, I really think that John Roberts will do a great job for the court and this country. Ta Da...
