Roy Pearson's pant suits are much classier than Hillary's.

Pearson fights for the right to pants. For any other judge they might settle, but I hope that the city is going to take this one to the mat on principal, at least as far as getting it tossed during the motion for summary judgment.

Roy Pearson is God's gift to news editors. On a sadder note, he is also the poster child for improved access to mental health care. Snappy dresser, though.

This guy is obviously coming apart at the seams. But I gotta say, it's high entertainment, and it couldn't have come at a better time. The most exciting thing to happen here in weeks has been that the streetlights are too bright. So until the summer murder spree hits, I'm happy we have this lunchbox generating hilarity.

Only $1 million? That seems like such a small amount. I say he should sue for $75 million then bring it down to a lower number, just like he did for hte pants.

Yeah and not only that, they better not have cuffs! Mr. Pearson hasn't worn cuffs since the 70s, he testified, while trying to convince the court that the pants produced by the dry cleaners couldn't possibly be his.

Are those pants Hickey Freeman? Because that is Mr. Pearson's preferred brand.

I guess he values his pants 54x more than his old job.

I would say something about Mr. Pearson, but I'm afraid he might sue me for $1.2 billion euro.
