    Calif. Dad Sold 14-year-old Into Marriage....

    This guy had it all wrong. Just make the deal ALL BEER

    A California man has been arrested for arranging for his 14-year-old daughter to marry a neighbor in exchange for $16,000, 100 cases of beer and several cases of meat, police said.
    Authorities in Greenfield, a farming community on California's central coast, said they learned of the deal after Marcelino de Jesus Martinez, 36, asked them for help getting back his daughter after payment wasn't made

    Horrible story, but I'm guessing that guy isn't the sharpest knife in the drawer.

    Be polite. Be professional. But be prepared to kill everyone you meet.
