No joke: Mother-in-law sues http://blogs.jta.org/ENTRY_PERMALINK_HERE/no-joke-mother-in-law-sues/ The Associated Press reports on a comic who is being sued by her Jewish mother-in-law for making her the punchline of too many jokes en-us aeden@jta.org Copyright 2009 2009-08-26T;19:14:00-05:00 Comment by John Q. Public kerry.berger@gmail.com Seems like another abuse of the judicial system filing a trivial lawsuit like this.  Don’t these people have anything better to do than clogging up the courts with BS like this rather than communicating directly with their daughter-in-law???  This is stupid to the max, and I agree with Mussa that it is not genuinely news worthy to report the trivial pursuits of entertainers.

I’ll sit here alone, in the dark, wearing the same cloth coat I’ve had for 30 years so you could become a comedian. Dad says you should call him, too, if you can find time from your busy schedule. That is, if he’s still alive then. Mom So don’t call me to share your problems with your mother in law.
