*sigh* We got any drinks in here? I sorely need one...

aaaaand CM will serve his sentence in county jail (in PC, mind you) rather than state prison. talking heads also guesstimating how much/little time he will serve since the sheriff has more input than the judge in determining the appropriate time served. surely it will be similar to LiLo's situation: 90 days = 5 hours

You had me excited! Wasn't following the thread closely and thought Cheney Mason was heading to the slammer!

ooops sorry RR0004, did not see that you had already posted about the spanish course.. i have been late on news here recently..

No worries...but who the heck is paying for this? Has Casey paid any of the fees assessed her by the Court? How about probation costs? That box been checked "paid"?

Wonder whose plane they'll use to fly him off the island tonight (hmm?). I had heard that he'd have to wait for a flight tomorrow morning.

I'm sure JB is taking all the credit for his release. why does it seem that murderers are getting off scott free left and right now a days? once Gary is back in the states the Aruban Government will never get him back. My Sympathy for Robyns family. How sad :banghead:

OMG! :floorlaugh::floorlaugh::floorlaugh: I know that's Tweedledee and Tweedledum, but now I'm having visions of them both singing, "We represent the Lollypop Guild! The Lollypop Guild! The Lollypop Guild! We represent the Lollypop GUILD! And we welcome you to munchkinland!" :floorlaugh::floorlaugh::floorlaugh:

I wonder if she got a Pell Grant. My daughter gets them, they pay for her schooling and give her money to live on too.

Wouldn't you need a high school diploma to get a Pell Grant?

 

[Well Done 99]

Same with mine and God help me if I tell her I am having trouble sleeping. She will go through the litany of no computers/TV/angry birds an hour before bed and how much exercise am I getting, what is in my current dinner diet, blah blah blah and i come out empty handed...:crazy:

Always surprises me they're unwilling to throw their drugs around, considering most of them get kickbacks from the pharmaceutical companies.
For heavens sake lg .. just tell her how much time we spend on WS. She'll recognize your need for a calming agent immediately :floorlaugh:

:floorlaugh::floorlaugh: Can't!! Can't admit that to anyone!! It's a secret - supposed to be working - having a life!! Out there!!:floorlaugh:

It's just that I like it better in here with my friends...

 

[Pattymarie]

I got to thinking...how WOULD KC be accepted in Mexico? I don't remember if anyone here on WS is from Mexico. Would she get a pass just because of JB? Did we have anyone here from the Hispanic community posting? How was the news of her trial reported there? How does this community feel about what was done to ZFG?

From what I recall when Baez was trying to use the Hispanic card and have the trial in Miami, our members of Hispanic descent were absolutely furious - saying no way Jose - Hispanic people are even more "family conscious and protective" than Americans or Canadians and yes, I believe that.

We have many Asian families here in Canada whose whole life revolves around family members more than anyone else. One goes out for dinner the whole family goes - everyone comes home for holidays without exception. Birthdays - again the same thing.

So people in Mexico would probably have the same feelings about OCA - so what if she was acquitted - we know the truth. And any Spanish friends I've had are much less "okay" about women who sleep around so publicly.

So do you think any communities in Mexico would accept OCA into their midst? I would love to hear from someone that lives in Mexico regarding this. (Especially, since she is trying to learn the language...where did she get this idea and why?)

 

[sumbunny]

This is pure speculation and rumour so take it with a grain of salt. But "apparently" OCA has a new rich boyfriend, that has a very secluded and safe house in mexico, in which she will live.

Casey Anthony Moving To Mexico?
Anthony Could Be Moving South Of The Border With New Man
Published On: Oct 03 2011 04:06:08 PM EDT Updated On: Sep 08 2011 10:34:05 AM EDT

Her new boyfriend is allegedly a wealthy ranch owner from California and Mexico. The National Enquirer says the beach house where Anthony plans to live is on the Sea of Cortez.

The secluded property is only accessible by plane and will allegedly allow Anthony to escape from the media and people who believe she killed her daughter

I suppose she needs spanish to order her margarita's and chat up the pool boys ~snorts~

Funny how most of the stories that are put out there for consumption always have KC being cared for by someone wealthy or they have her running for her life. Seems a bit dramatic doesn't it? "KC is lounging at a $50 million estate owned by one of her attorneys." "KC is moving in with a wealthy businessman in Mexico." "Kc is running as bullets whiz past her head." Seriously! I think it is all bunk just to keep her name in the news. Heaven forbid everyone should stop talking about her before she can sign a deal! JMO

ahem

There's a word for that. Prettified words . Even in Spanish, there's a word for that.

Truly, it's 2011, must we, must we "aspire" to this nonsense? This extends to so many other gossip "items." Golly, how are we being spun!

What gets me - this is the best the spin machine can do? Wow. They must have little to work with.

But, we all knew that

I would almost bet you that somewhere there is a "handler" who is trying to land her a spot on one of the reality shows. You know, one of those shows where a bunch of young people move into a house together and try to outlast the other for some ridiculous payout? Or maybe Dancing With The Stars. I can see KC twirling around the floor, twizzler hanging from her mouth, practicing her Tango. If it was the Biggest Loser, I could definately see her winning that show, except not for weight loss. I can honestly say that I think both KC and those around her think she is going to be a celebrity after some time has passed. I don't understand why they don't get that she is viewed as a murderer who got lucky and got away with it. I'm just waiting for her inevitable relapse into her criminal nature. She will offend again, and next time, I don't think she will be so lucky. JMO

Boy...you're lucky...we weren't eligible
Wouldn't you first have to get a GED...then take SATs or something to be eligible? I work 2 jobs and can't get them...would be might pi$$ed if Casey could.
But congrats to you and so happy that your daughter did!!
