sterling wolfname

Your Daily Loser
Sterling Wolfname, on the lam for a fatal beating, drew attention from a street cop who had heard about the fugitive. Hold it right there, fella, are you Sterling Wolfname? (Never heard of him.) Then how come you've got "Wolfname" tattooed on the side of your head? (D'Oh!)

You have to admit, though; if you hade a cool name like Sterling Wolfname, you'd want to advertise it. Like that guy in the army I learned of whose name is Staff Sergeant Max Fightmaster. Some names deserve advertising.

CanUKgirl, I was a little worried that these fine, upstanding individuals would not know what a Kangaroo Court is, so here's the definition. I've made it as detailed as possible to avoid any confusion.

The colloquial phrase "kangaroo court" is used to describe judicial proceedings that, the speaker feels, deny due process rights in the name of expediency. Such rights include the right to summon witnesses, the right of cross-examination, the right not to incriminate oneself, the right not to be tried on secret evidence, the right to control one's own defense, the right to exclude evidence that is improperly obtained, irrelevant or inherently inadmissible, e.g., hearsay, the right to exclude judges or jurors on the grounds of partiality or conflict of interest, and the right of appeal. The outcome of a trial by "kangaroo court" is essentially determined in advance, usually for the purpose of providing a conviction, either by going through the motions of manipulated procedure or by allowing no defense at all.

There, now we can rest easy. 😉

I was being 100% sarcastic patty. I thought the reference to fine, upstanding individuals gave it away, but I was too subtle. :lol:
