(AP) - A seven-year-old boy was at the center of a Bossier Parish courtroom drama yesterday when he challenged a court ruling over who should have custody of him. The boy had a history of being beaten by his parents and the judge initially awarded custody to his aunt, in keeping with child custody law and regulations requiring that family unity be maintained to the degree possible.

The boy surprised the court when he proclaimed that his aunt beat him more than his parents and he adamantly refused to live with her. When the Judge then suggested that he live with his grandparents, the boy cried out that they also beat him.

After considering the remainder of the immediate family and learning that domestic violence was apparently a way of life among them, the judge took the unprecedented step of allowing the boy to propose who should have custody of him. After two recesses to check legal references and confer with child welfare officials, the judge granted temporary custody to the New Orleans Saints, whom the boy firmly believes are not capable of beating anyone.

Damn 08 where did you come up with that, I'm still laughing. It took me 15 minutes just just to write this.

RE: Breaking News
 

Ha ha! Nice one.

That's so wrong... yet probably true.

Borrowed it , as I always say .....

It was a great localized joke from an original old joke ......

Kind of like the old .

Will the parent who left her 11 children at the Superdome yesterday , please come and pick them up. The are beating the Saints 24 - 0 .

That's the second time I've seen that joke today. The first time I saw it was on another message board and custody of the children was given to the Eagles. It shouldn't be too hard to figure out which message board I was lurking on.

Another oldie but goodie....

It was late in the second quarter and the Saints had possession of the ball around mid-field.
Someone in the stands blew a whistle and the Falcons thought it was the whistle for the end of the half, so they ran off the field. Four plays later the Saints kicked a field goal. :D

Boudreaux dies and goes to hell. The devils says welcome Boudreaux, since it's your first day, we'll keep the temperature at only 500 degrees.

The devil returns to find Boudreaux relaxing, having a crawfish boil. The devil says hey man, it's 500 degrees down here, what are you doing relaxing? Boudreaux says hey man, this ain't nothing, it's hotter than this in Louisiana in July.

The devil cranks the thermostat up to 1000 degrees, and checks on Boudreaux the next day. The devil finds Boudreaux relaxing, eating some boudin. They devil says hey man, it's 1000 degrees down here, what are you doing relaxing? Boudreaux says hey man, this ain't nothing, it's hotter than this in Louisiana and August.

The devil cranks the thermostat down to -10,000 degrees, and checks on Boudreaux the next day. The devil finds Boudreaux dancing and rejoicing, hysterically chanting "dem Saints won da Superbowl, da Saints won da Superbowl!!!".
