Apt commentary here.

UPDATE:  A law student from a top law school (not Texas) writes:  "The ‘masturbating judge’ story you link to has, for a while, provided a new way of ranking nuttiness among judges.  When I’ve spoken with some colleagues about judges they’ve worked for they can now say things like, ‘well, he was pretty crazy.  I mean, not penis-pump crazy, but pretty crazy anyway.’  Penis-pump crazy now sets a new standard for nuttiness for judges.  It will be interesting to see how many can live up to it."
