A Philippines judge who said he consulted imaginary mystic dwarves has failed to convince the Supreme Court to allow him to keep his job.
Florentino Floro was appealing against a three-year inquiry which led to his removal due to incompetence and bias.
He told investigators three mystic dwarves - Armand, Luis and Angel - had helped him to carry out healing sessions during breaks in his chambers.
The court said psychic phenomena had no place in the judiciary.
The judge said he had made a covenant with his dwarf friends that he could write while in a trance and that he had been seen by several people in two places at the same time.
Judge Floro reportedly changed from blue court robes to black each Friday "to recharge his psychic powers".
In a letter to the court he said: "From obscurity, my name and the three mystic dwarves became immortal."
However, the Supreme Court said dalliance with dwarves would gradually erode the public's acceptance of the judiciary as the guardian of the law, if not make it an object of ridicule...

the gift is excellent old sport. I have since managed to pass unnoticed through several school yards and girl guide meetings. Thanks for thinking about me in my time of need. Not all of us 'liberators' have the cash of Pete Townsend and hence can't just walk away from our beastly actions as he did. The disguise is greatly appreciated.
Keep up the good fight. The gay made himself acceptable if not applauded in society. Now it's surely the time for the beast to take the same stance. If homosexuality is not a perversion then surely neither is child liberation!?!
the track "I wish I was blind" is like the soundtrack to my post booze funk. Usually it kicks in around 8pm. I'm watching tv and the fear starts to climb all over me. It's slow burning, just like the track. But it's there, oh it's there. All the track is missing is a constant thumping which is all I can hear coming from my chest as the bastard booze washes right over.
If you'll inspect more closely, you'll see that we'll be ringing in the Mass of Our Lord in 2010. I hope you'll be making that date, good King Whensheeshlw.
