Fired Judge Blames Elf for Court Mishaps
Posted Sep 17, 2007, 01:50 pm CDT
By Debra Cassens Weiss

The Philippines Supreme Court has asked a fired judge who claims he is assisted by three elves to stop making threats of “ungodly reprisal.”

The court kicked Florentino Floro Jr. off the bench largely because of his belief in the supernatural, the Wall Street Journal reports (sub. req.). A medical clinic determined that the judge was suffering from psychosis.

Since then Floro has battled to get his job back, appearing on TV and winning converts who seek his healing powers. At the same time, a series of unfortunate incidents have befallen the supreme court justices or their families, including serious illnesses and car accidents.

Floro says the person to blame for the mishaps is one of the elves, "Luis," a "king of kings" who is an avenger. He told the newspaper that the elves help him predict the future, but he has never consulted them when issuing judicial decisions.

The Supreme Court has not reversed any of Floro’s decisions since firing him.

His defense:
"Oh, yeah?? Prove there are no elves!"

But the question is will that one last 395 pages?

I'm going to consult my elves and I'll get right back to you...

But will you get any value from your consultant elves, or will you just be flushing their consulting fees down the toilet?

Guess who designed the very first gererator prototype?

Yup, elves.
