hmmm... interesting, however, if a person really DOES have multiple personalities, and they are all distinct, they SHOULD be treated as seperate people, because they realy are, they just happen to share the same body.

Waitaminute, when they say it will come out of larry's inurance... does that mean that each personality has its own policy, and therefore thieir own ID?

Ya know, sometimes you gotta wonder how reliable Yahoo's incoming news is.

This just looks like straight up bullshit.

Well... it *was* in the "entertainment and gossip" section.

Gee... I wish I had an alternate personality that I could blame for all my bad behavior.

Its a syndrome developed in one of the following cases...

A. A person does not want to face up to their responsibilities, so they create an alter ego and blame it on them.
B. A person has an inconceivably complex mind that
can easily divide its point of view.
C.A person divides his or her tendencies into set patterns and refuses to operate any of these patterns simultaneously

To the people who suffer from this, the alter ego is as real as themselves. I know this first hand. I tend to divide myself into seperate personalities when the need arises. Usually when im depressed.

Some people are exceptional liars in this. I strongly disrespect these people, they make the ones who really have the problem look bad. However, for those willing to carry on a lie for so long, it usually sinks in.

Plus, all he's done is filed the lawsuit. It hasn't gone through a court yet.

This isn't the first time this has happened. A man in jail apparently sued himself for close to $250,000 for violating his civil rights by going out, getting drunk, and landing himself in jail. Since he was currently in prison, he requested the state pay if he won.

The judge called it, "inventive, but ludicrous."

if it was real news it would've been in the "oddly enough" section of the Yahoo! News, not entertainment/gossip.

LOL, that'd be so awesome. I'd love to be on the jury.
