Sue Happy

No, not Sue like a ladies name. But sue, like lawsuit. Let's face it, we live in a sue happy world: people suing Starbucks because their coffee spilled on them and it was hot. Seriously!! It's coffee, not a milkshake. I know, I know people have suffered severe burns because of hot coffee being spilled on them. I'm not negating that fact. You know when you see those little signs at restaurants that say, "Coffee is served hot" that someone has sued over that. So, in this sue happy land we live in, here's a new one for you. Congressman Dennis Kucinich, from Ohio, is suing the congressional cafeteria people because in 2008 he bit into a sandwich wrap that had pitted olives in it. ONLY, not all the olives were pitted. One little guy was still sneaking around in there. When he bit into said olive, it caused some dental injuries. Here's the link to the story on Huffington Post: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/01/26/dennis-kucinich-suing-cafeteria-olive_n_814337.html
