  1. Interestingly, her husband is an attorney, and apparently she had a book deal in place, until adverse publicity (forced a cancellation announcement.. Da!mn that leftist media! They just live to bring down cpitalim and free speech!
  2. This juror btw, had previously been called four times for jury duty . Is this usual? How old is she? I have been only called once and I have lived here 35 years. Maybe the jury pool is much smaller in florida.
  3. KENNETH TYNAN wrote this and I have just remembered his much better lines: She said, don't get me wrong, but after King Kong, you can keep your Quatorze Juiliiet! sorry Kt
  4. "There was a young man from Marseille Who encountered a lovely Feille Wreille. She said, "after King Kong, Frenchmen just seem so wrong, And a bas le quatorze juilliet!
  5. Yes, he was, I just read a bio of him. No wonder he kept refusing to meet Ayn Rand!
  6. Jeez Adam, are you related to Joffrey Lupul\/ And I thought I had a lot of cousins...
  7. Adam and PDS, the only Canadian group I ever forced you into was the Fraternal Order as you well know, and you were not exactly reluctant and in fact demonstrated pretty high levels of Free Will, not that you pay your dues on time but that is not my problem.

  8. I would have replied before but I Can't, the editor, or whatever, will not allow me to. First I should not have said average American mind, especially when I don't even believe there is one. I withdraw that and beg for a pass this one time. I should have said One American Juror, my comments come from her answers during jury selection and other interviews, I will now try for the third (3rd) time to post this but I fear it will again tell me my Post is Too Short. Can I blame this on the heat too?
  9. What is your basis for claiming that this is a peek into the "modern average American mind"?
  10. One, at least, of the Zimmerman jurors has offered a fascinating peek into the modern average American mind. She stated that she believes all media are biased and does not pay attention to them, nevertheless she believed that when Martin was first killed, there were riots (there weren't). In the age of Information Overload she shuns all sources of information and receives her impressions of the outside world, apparently, by osmosis.
  11. Playoffs not approaching fast enough. God I hate this time of year. Everytime I have to go out I come home with heat blisters. Feeling deprived since there is absolutely no hockey news, unless you count Restricted Free Agents Still in Contract Talks, which as news is on a par with Duchess of Cambridge still Pregnant. \Looking at Joffrey Lupul in ESPN magazine, but it is not cooling me down any. He has the most beautiful...eyes in hockey. It is too bad Ayn Rand never cared about athletics, I know she went for the lithe type but I bet Lupes could've changed her premises.

  12. Dear Contented in Columbus, I just received your kind gift of Complimentary Beneath the Blue Jacket merchandise - I am overwhelmed and blushing with thanks! My wife sends her warmest regards and is planning a trip to Ohio in the near future. As always, Madame, Yours to command, Emile

  15. Brant, you are right, I mix them too. My favourite mix is Canada Dry.
  16. Two matching metaphors are a logical fallacy, so you mix them. --Brant argumentum ad metaphoria (argumentum ad nonsensica)
  17. It's not like you to mix metaphors Brant!
  18. And you will only need to say "he was trying to kill me!" to be home free.
  19. For the same reason an individual should do what is in his own best interest.

  21. This was funny. When I was Googling for coverage on this story, up popped an ad: "Searching for Irvine Saudi Slave? Get the best prices for Irvine Saudi Slave. Click here."
  22. Ah, values and personal morals, tidily resolved by guns.
  23. No Brant, I have not turned the right to self-defence into the right to kill. Your laws and this verdict have shown them to be inseparable.
