Along side my morning coffee, I'm staring at a huge cup of frustration & disappointment. If you care to try some, it is one part gall and one part bitters, laced with absinthe or absence I can't quite make out the old label. Anyway, mine over floweth. I've been having it since Kyron Horman's disappearance & subsequent nothing, then Antolin Garcia Torres's refusals to plead for fourteen months, & finally the Season of the Big Stymie by Nor Me and Will Not. I think if I can get to the bottom of it--three or four strong gulps--I may feel better as it represents an admission and an acknowledgment that justice on hold is justice refused and that I don't tolerate it well. It's just good to acknowledge that instead of wondering why the complexion's gone grey and the hair is standing on end. The cure is not within my powers, so I will simply drink to it.

Despair not dear Tuba, a delay may only be pause for breath.
 
hey everyone!!!!

first off, Congrats Tulessa!!! What a blessing for those children and for you:) I am very happy for you, after being in a social worker in that system for several years I know how difficult the journey you were on custody wise can be.

secondly, I just wanted to post my current thoughts regarding this case. First I just want to say that if anyone deserves the death penalty, it's Jodi Arias. But the fact of the matter is, even if she is convicted, the appeals will be endless and with some errors in the trial (which I will get into at a later date), I truly believe any DP conviction would be commuted to a LWOP sentence. Today is one of the first days I have even thought of Jodi, but I have thought of Travis and the legacy he has left many times in the past week. The worst thing for Jodi is to be forgotten and LWOP would do that. I just honestly think the state should ask JSS to sentence her. I believe JSS will give her LWOP and that will be that. I know the family wants to continue on with retrying the penalty phase so I will respect their decision and stand by their wishes. This is all JMO and it has taken me awhile to come to this opinion as I was so pro death penalty for her (i still am I just think it's never gonna happen even if a new jury were to sentence her to death)
 
Along with big hogs, rats are eaten in some countries, and they can get quite large.

I hate them! Too many bad apartments. Not worried about them eating my face off though, I don't slober milk. Just worry about the diseases and the mess.

Bitter coffee, it already has some sugar. She is in jail and cannot leave, sentencing or not, convicted it stands. The sentence will come. Unless it already did and I missed it.

Spin my right round song, love it! But once confused it with Ratt's Round and Round, and the guy talking to me on the phone about it was trying to tell me something, but I missed the point and blew it. I did have a crush on him for a year or 2, but by that time it didn't matter. He had started dating "dancers". Not ever touching that stuff. Nuff said.
 
As much as I would like JA to be put to death, I know that a death sentence would take decades to carry out and in the meantime, she would have a right to file appeals and all sorts of other costly measures in her desperate bid to gain attention and torment TA's family.
So I would be fine with LWOP. I believe that she will NOT get any money for appeals and such if she gets LWOP. It will all be on her to finance it, not the taxpayers. So she would be limited to how many crazy desperate things she could try to do.
I am sure by now that the reality of her situation is sinking in. She has 23 hours alone in a cell, with no one to talk to. That has to driver her nuts because she has such a severe case of verbal diarrhea. Her name has mostly faded from the headlines and her case is mostly done with. Her time in the limelight is over. Even here in this forum, we have turned to talk of a million things other than her. I bet she is acting out in prison as the bleakness of her future sets in.

There's been a Boeing 777 airplane crash in SF coming from Korea. Two have died. Watch Fox, CNN, etc. to follow.

it's really miraculous there weren't more fatalities.

Sad for the few that didn't or may not make it home as planned.

The photos of people walking away, carrying their bags cracked me up! I know, I'm weird.

BBM: :floorlaugh: :floorlaugh: :floorlaugh: :floorlaugh: Hilarious! Seriously Tuba, I feel the same frustration you do. How long will the legal system allow them to drag this out? It's already gone past the point of ridiculous.

Nor Me and Will Not :giggle:. Thanks for that. :seeya:
 
Sometimes, things, like memories should be just that, memories.
 
I just like coming here and posting as it makes me feel like a part of something special. I posted in another trial thread and was ripped to shreds. My brain deficits from hypoxia sometimes make my posts a little hard to understand. I don't care if you disagree with me or agree with me. My particular post was an observation and boy did I get schooled. I just feel safer in here. Thanks for being supportive and caring y'all. You are the best!!
