Yeah, It's Another Scandal!

For those who haven't been following it, there's a real humdinger of a scandal brewing in LA involving Anthony Pellicano, Private Dick to the stars. Pellicano is in a wee little trouble with the Feds for wiretapping as well as various other shady activities that are considered illegal by the government unless done by the government, all in the name of his high-powered clients. How much fun is this case? The whole thing started because of shenanigans in a case involving Steven Seagal and the mafia. Other clients he's rumored to have had include everyone from Tom Cruise to Sylvester Stallone to Michael Jackson to O.J. Simpson to Hillary Clinton. And it just got director John McTiernan charged for lying to the Feds.

So what does this have to do with the price of the Tea at Coffee Tea & Spice on Haight? Turns out one of his clients was rumored to be one Barry Lamar Bonds.

There's no official word that Bonds hired the guy and if he did, what exactly Bonds hired the guy for or whether while working for Barry he did anything illegal. We also have no idea if Barry has anything to be embarrassed about here, although, what else could come out that would be more embarrassing? The dude's mistress just squealed in a book about backne and Barry's steroid induced sexual dysfunctions. We just like the fact that this could possibly make Barry the Kevin Bacon of all of our ongoing scandals. We wonder if news will soon come out that Barry leaked Valerie Plame's name, paid gossip columnists to write good things about him (and if true, we take MasterCard and Visa), or traded signed baseball's for Indian gaming votes.

We can only dream.
