It’s like remaking The Sound of Music or the Wizard of Oz.
Right? That’s the whole appeal of Rocky Horror. It’s not just playing at being a bit crusty and seedy, it’s actually a bit crusty and seedy. You would have to go back to the 70’s to try and achieve that level of libertine porno-chic. It’s the dirt and the cellulite around the edges of the sequins and the lipgloss that…
I just realized that I’m too old to understand these references! Ahh!
The fact that they continue to insist that he is guilty while never addressing the corruption involved (which is really what this case is about), only proves that they have something to hide.
I had the same thought. But, I don’t know that we can ever expect the family of a victim of such a horrific crime to be impartial. The grieving process is what it is. That’s the heart of the issue, really. We know that is how human nature works. Thus, we are supposed to have the legal process that we have. It’s the…
This is a topic that we discuss quite frequently in my household. We lived in Europe (various countries) for a number of years before moving back to the US. Class is much more apparent in the US. In my city, I feel the class disparity every day as I step over some poor homeless schizophrenic person sleeping on the…
Did you know that if you buy a Fitbit you will definitely start exercising? It’s true! All you have to do is buy stuff and instantly you will shed all that apathy, get up off the couch, and start moving. Humans have been doing it wrong for all these Millenia. The best part is that when you don’t want it anymore, you…

...in this room the musty air is punctuated by the jingle-jangle of oversized costume jewelry and the low “ssssszzzzz” of a pink Fantasia meeting its inevitable end in the Crystal vase that was a gift from the Health Minister of Djibouti.
I agree. Also, we should have laws in place that prevent media from publishing or broadcasting any information about minor victims, apart from what is in the official public record, without written consent from the minor victim and the minor victim’s parents. In this day and age, putting a kid’s name and image out…
And for those of us who prefer leather....
I think I see what you are trying to get at. It is not technically correct to assume an accused person is factually innocent with 100% certainty if your assumption is based on the fact that there is not enough evidence to prove that the accused person is guilty under the law. Of course, what you can prove may not have…
Whether they did or didn’t do it isn’t really the point here, despite the fact that the petition is worded as such.
I hope I didn’t convey any vitriol. :)
I wasn’t firmly convinced that this guy was innocent, but it was pretty clear that he was convicted through faulty police work and/or corruption. I mean, he was suing and probably ruining the careers of the people who were investigating him and presiding over his legal process. There’s not much room for interpretation…
What burns me up is how we create drug monopolies & artificial scarcity through insane drug patent laws (which is totally not a “free market” idea, btw) but shun “socialized” medicine or government mandated healthcare pricing regulations. Seriously...every...time...I...think of this...I....just...can’t. It’s so…
You can spin a witty zing with the best of em’ & you’re classy as all heck to boot.
Or the real housewives of silicon valley! Maladjusted nerds with capitalist tendencies and the manic pixie dream girls who love their app money.
Trump will not win, that much is clear. What he can do, and what he’s done so far, is distract voters from the real issues.
