I sat down once with the application for Match.com and started to laugh. I couldn't even get past the first page. And that's a very good site!
I had hoped for, at the most, some confinement, community service, ... And instead I have five months of incarceration, and five months of house arrest that's monitored. ... But it could have been worse. ... Five months versus 10 months or 16 months ... That's a good thing.
