Went out as you arrived, with no coherent arguments... JUST FEELINGS. Well done.

I'll let ya know if I ever see him on a golf course here in Florida. Apparently, that is where Nicole's killer might be!

I watch the series Criminal Minds, you have to watch something with your wife, and it is amazing how much of the dialogue seems to come right from Douglas' books.

Sad news. After her child died, she must have had a very sad, stress-filled life. That loss and the turmoil of the following years, the suspicion, must have shaved years off her life. RIP, Patsy. The Lord alone knows what was in your heart.

No flaming from me. I'm not very good at it, anyway.

As far as the stun gun, it wasn't ever proved that the R's owned one. An instruction video for a taser was found, but no weapon itself. I'm just not convinced that's what the marks are or that one was used on her.

If an exhumation proved it, I'd have to look at everything all over again in that light, because it would be a whole new crime scenario to prove who would've used it.

None of the three living people in the house that night had the opportunity to dispose of one, unless we consider both parents as the perps. I am on the fence about that, as I believe one was hiding parts of the crime from the other one.

At any rate, I don't consider the stun gun as evidence. Same for the scream. The lady who heard it recanted on the timing and whether she heard it at all, in her twilight sleep of being awakened by her husband. It would help if it were true, but I keep it aside from what I look at as evidence.

As for OJ, Sydney might get the best of him yet, in some form or other, lol!

Acting, dancing, music etc. are very specific talents that can be developed through hard work, practice etc. etc. And even if the kid never gets beyond hideously bad, they may still garner an appreciation for the craft.

Also, these skills are not generally competitive beyond the audition for a seat or part.

Beauty contests are these competitive ventures in which the determining factors are so varied (and in some cases beyond the kid's control) that I can only imagine the games it plays with their heads.

I'll admit that I may be wrong, but I know the fashion industry and have had no little experience with models -- and let me tell you, they are not generally a well-adjusted bunch.

The child was left in the house which makes little or no sense at all if it was an intruder.

It certainly makes no sense for a kidnapper.

One of my relatives involved his kid in pageants at a young age. The child was a three year old boy and was cute, personable, and won a number of titles. The parents hoped it would lead to modeling offers, but that never took off. They ended up spending way too much outlay in going to all these pageants, air fare to places like Vegas, spending money for ads in the pageant's promotional booklet touting their child, money for outfits, etc.

Pageants don't train girls to be models...they train them to be poised and lovely women. If you don't think it takes hard work, dedication and talent to be in these things...you are wrong.

They went to a party at someone else's house - it wasn't in their own house.

They thought they were going to get modeling offers? Holy crap! Did the show organizers promise them anything like that?

If that's all they want out of it and don't take it too seriously, then what the hell, right?

It was brought to our attention during the publicity of this case. I had never heard of these pageants before and yes they became quite naturally a subject of discussion then, and many people formed opinions about them.

To dress little girls that way so prematurely is a shocking oddity and it was impossible to avoid conversation on the topic then and now. It received much attention on television and even on talk radio, if you recall.

LOL, agreed. Really, really weird.

Kidnapping was not the motive in this case, sexual homicide was. Kidnapping was a ruse. Remember?

Getting to be more than I can handle R.G.
