    GUILTY AL - Attorney, 36, abducted, raped, Birmingham, 31 May 2006

    I have always told my kids this, along with fighting and making lots of noise. When I was younger and worked at a bank that is exactly what we were instructed in a seminar, and I'll never forget the lady saying that we would rather be shot, than taken into a car anyway, because at least then...

    FL FL - Daniel DiPiero, 21, missing from cruise ship, 15 May 2006

    I don't care how many procedures they go through, or how many false alarms could come of it, there is no excuse for that amount of time to pass before the coast guard is alerted. That gives me absolutely no faith in the cruise lines in and of itself. This is really heartbreaking. Just last week...

    Tom Cruise Bill - ALL THINGS TOM CRUISE (RELATED)

    Seems that we can add hypocrite to the list of wee man's attributes. Spewing about the "respect" he has for mothers while treating KATE'S mother like a pariah. Blahblahblah On the other hand, he is a LOON, but what is KATE'S excuse? I've felt nothing other than sadness to think of the...

    GUILTY CT - Andrew Kissel, 46, stabbed to death, Greenwich, 3 April 2006

    This case first really interested me when I learned of how the brother died also. Too weird. I really don't know how they've come up with a suicide for hire theory at all when the man was stabbed 5 times in the back though. Much easier ways to accomplish that.

    Elvis' Graceland To Be Designated Historic Landmark !

    cool....Elvis fans on board! I've loved him my whole life, even though he died when I was 9. He and Tom are my life long obsessions. I have a very small tattoo of TCBw/lightning bolt behind my right shoulder. Didn't get it til last year, and I'm pretty sure I won't regret it. :) As much as I'm...

    CA CA - Rose Cole, 16, Oakland, 1972 - #1

    Member Lance Kenton, son of band leader Stan Kenton, and another member named Joe Musico hid a 4.5-foot rattlesnake, whose warning rattles had been cut off, in Morantz’s mailbox. On the homepage of that website, I noticed in the "names you might recognize" a Lance was listed. My curiosity is...

    All Those D's

    I'm Jennifer and my brother is Jason. My much younger sister got to break the cycle when my parents couldn't think of another J name they really loved. I was 9, and when asked for input I picked Leia which they named her. I was REALLY into Star Wars. ha Funny thing is I named my son Joshua, and...

    AK - Lauri Waterman, 48, slain, Craig, PWI, 14 Nov 2004

    Not only ol Doc, but anyone who ever may get in the way of anything she wants. This girl spooks the heck out of me. I can't believe she's walking free.

    My new Heroes - PATRIOT GUARD RIDERS

    This is the first I've heard of this Phelps freak, and I must say I feel so angry right now. I can't imagine being one of the mourners at a funeral he showed up at. I'm afraid I'd be the one to go to jail. This hatemonger should maybe read the new testament with his eyes actually open next time...

    University of MN scientists reverse diabetes in monkeys

    My son has to write a few paragraphs about any newspaper article related to science each week for his science class, and he just finished writing about this one ten minutes ago. I'm sure that's not really interesting to anyone but me. :) This does sound really promising..crossing fingers!

    Britney Spears Caught Driving With Child in Lap - MERGED

    I never thought I'd be posting about this girl, but UGH, what a moron. What is the greatest danger to her baby, a few photographs or possibility of fatal car crash while unrestrained in any way??? I think at that moment it was more about her ego than her baby. She didn't want the papparazzi to...

    Mississippi's Invisible Coast

    2sisters, I'm so glad you posted this. I will write to my Alabama reps. I noticed from the beginning how unbalanced the reporting was. I barely heard mention of the damage in Mobile, and it is truly a SHAME how little coverage the Mississippi coast has received. My parents lived in New Orleans...

    GUILTY VA - Morgan Young, 21, shot to death, Chesapeake, 2 Jan 2006

    This is so sad. My best friend was Mormon, but has left the religion. The rest of her family has not however, and two of her brothers also served as missionaries. I have wondered how safe it is over the years when I see them here and there on their bikes. Just young boys trying to do what was...
