Signs of the Apocalypse: Part III

As if we haven't already lost our minds, here is an article about a Washington D.C. judge suing his dry cleaner for $65 million dollars. You can read it here.

That is not a typo.

$65 MILLION DOLLARS!

Apparently, the dry cleaners misplaced his pants. They were found one week later and have been hanging in the dry cleaners' lawyer's office for over a year.

He is now suing the dry cleaner for his rental car to visit other dry cleaners as well as an odd interpretation of D.C. consumer protection law. The dry cleaners has offered more than enough money to settle the case and and the American Tort Association has offered to purchase any suit the judge desires.

Not good enough. $65 million.

Has this country gone absolutely bonkers?
