In July, Damon Goffe sued Oprah Winfrey in federal court, alleging that Winfrey had infringed his copyright in a series of poems. Goffe demanded 1.2 trillion dollars ($1,200,000,000,000) in damages for what were, presumably, the greatest poems in the universe, poems so good that Jesus had them printed on a T-shirt that he now wears around while telling everybody that Damon Goffe is his new best friend.

Who would take Goffe's case? What kind of a lawyer do you have to be to defend someone like that?

Thanks for the link, by the way, it is full of hilarity.

aka Faily McFail and his massive lawsuit of Failiness.

What would you even do with a trillion dollars? Start a Space Poetry Program?
