GOD SUING `LOS ANGELES TIMES' FOR $10 MILLION

LOS ANGELES (Wireless Flash) -- A Los Angeles man who claims he's God is suing the "Los Angeles Times" over an article that allegedly slandered his good name. The 60-year-old man -- who legally changed his name to "God" in 1981 -- says he plans on filing a $10-million defamation of character lawsuit over an article in which he was described as wearing a "bad toupee." The story also describes God's skin as having the texture of "marzipan" and mentions God's chain-smoking habit. God says he's most upset with the photographs in the article which he complains are "unflattering" and hide the fact that he's "really a photogenic, handsome guy." But God may have a devil of time trying to collect on his $10 million lawsuit. The author of the "Times" article, R. Daniel Foster, says he isn't worried about being sued, and says if the California God truly is God, he wouldn't need to stoop to a lawsuit.
