Dear Friends: A basement storage room in the Montgomery, Alabama sheriff's office has yielded remarkable photographic artifacts from the civil rights movement. And we've published all 100 of these historic images, mug shots taken of individuals arrested during the 1956 bus boycotts and the 1961 Freedom Rider protests. The photos, once thought lost to history, can now be found here: http://www.thesmokinggun.com/archive/1103052mmugs1.html While those civil rights pioneers were arrested struggling for noble causes, CEO Dennis Kozlowski and his Tyco International sidekick Mark Swartz are simply thieving scoundrels jailed for corporate plunder. And they look lousy in their prison-issue jumpsuits: http://www.thesmokinggun.com/archive/1101054tyco1.html Honest, this is not a joke: A California couple is seeking to trademark the phrase "Jesus Juice" so they can place it on bottles of merlot. They recently provided government officials with their wine's label, a blasphemous piece of business that is sure to offend both Michael Jackson and Christians everywhere. Who even knew that was possible? Take a look at it here: http://www.thesmokinggun.com Interested in winning a copy of new books on Donald Trump and Rudolph Giuliani?
