Former Confederate general, Sears sued for 2.7 million dollars over makeshift masturbatorium

What the hell was Robert E. Lee thinking?

After Lee surrendered to Henrico Police, investigators discovered the Sears manager had created a makeshift masturbatorium from a service platform just above the ladies’ dressing rooms.

It appeared to investigators that the prefab peeping hutch had been in use for quite some time, the victim’s lawsuit alleges, and that Lee admitted to watching the girl and her mother trying on bathing suits.

“During the search of the room, police officials recovered sexually explicit magazines and seminal fluids,” the suit says.

While I think the damages the plaintiffs are seeking are somewhat excessive, Robert E. Lee shouldn’t be allowed to work at a clothing store ever again.

Nine Inch Nails releases new single online for free download, new album on the way?

http://discipline.nin.com
The ID3 “comment” tag says “Go to www.nin.com May 5″. If I had to guess, there’ll likely be a new album avaliable for download at that time.

The embedded artwork can be viewed here

My initial impression is positive, definitely worth the 8.4 MB download.

Microsoft’s failed MSN Music download store is shutting down its DRM servers August 31, effectively stealing purchased music from its customers.

Down with DRM, long live amazon.com and other DRM-free music retailers.
