Didn't mean to imply I was jealous of rich folks. In fact, I'm in a position where many are jealous of me. However, I do believe in fair play and there should not be special rules for those who are rich.

For example, if I am ever caught in a DUI, I would expect to be treated just like any other schmuck caught in such a situation. I would expect to spend the night in jail, show up in court the next morning with bad hair and a hangover, and pay the piper accordingly. It makes me angry to see a certain class of people who find themselves in these situations (i.e. celebrities, politicians) treated more favorably.

Okay, I am hereby doubling your sentence because of the BAD HAIR.

There is no excuse for that.

No kidding. Had she enrolled in the alcohol classes and gone to them, like she was supposed to, AND not violated her probation by driving SEVERAL TIMES even getting a SPEEDING TICKET, she wouldn't be sitting in jail right now. It's the probation violation that has her butt in jail. The willfil disregard for the judicial system and the laws, not to mention wrecklessly endangering others, by driving at might without headlights. She'll probably be out in 23 days if she behaves herself this time. But she deserves to be, tight where she is. Behind bars.
