That's not how logic works.

We don't even need to rule it out, though, if, as some have suggested, no surgical knowledge was even needed for the way the organs were removed. *If* (apologies, I've forgotten much of my Ripper lore) the cuts indicated someone who had no knowledge of anatomy, that might actually rule out a whole class of…

No, the point is that if they had any decent evidence whatsoever back then, they wouldn't have hesitated to pin the murders on him. You're looking at this backwards.

I don't dare defy an industry that gave the world Xanax.

Do dental dams come in flavors?

Can your next piece be a review of your favorite flavored condoms? INQUIRING MINDS WANT TO KNOW!

PSA: never use feminine products with any kind of perfume; it's bad for your ladyparts!

LOL who actually thought this was real?

The thing is, since fountain soda often tastes 'weird' in one way or another, the taste of anything you get from one so runs the gamut that people can just chalk it up to a bad machine. It happened to me and I paid the price.

Okay, 2 things: 1) if done properly, yes, this works. It was done *to* me at a chain restaurant and I couldn't tell the difference until I noticed the second glass was slightly darker than the first. 2) I CANNOT HAVE CAFFEINE. It gives me heart palpitations. On the way home from the restaurant I felt like I was dying.…

Wonder if this guy knows what cock cages are!

I don't think Toby Ziegler would approve of the phrase "obvious given".

Probably had a similar mustache!

I love how quickly they go back and forth between genius and complete and utter stupidity!

Yup, the letters - genuine or not - were a major part of why this case garnered so much attention.

I always liked the Dr. Tumblety theory. If I had to pick a suspect, it would be him.

Yeah, the mutilation in such circumstances was pretty much unheard of at the time.

I don't think that's true. All the modern researchers have long since established that, whatever the image painted of him by the media both at the time and since, Jack the Ripper was not an upper-class gentleman in a carriage wearing a long coat and a top hat. Every 'expert' I've ever heard has agreed that such a man…

I mean, okay, I don't think he did it, but the two issues here are a) whether Aaron Kosminski is the 'Kosminski' mentioned in investigators' notes - something that has to be called into question because Aaron Kosminski was alive long after all of this happened, and why would it have been noted that the police's…

I thought he was only under surveillance after the fact?
