No, Dave’s right. The girl was obviously $#1thammered.

My guess is they took a BAC as well as the rape kit, and he’s not walking into court with that.

In Georgia, this should have been before a Grand Jury, but I think he doesn’t want to try the case because while he thinks something untoward happened, this is a both parties are at fault issue.

He’s probably right. This is probably a ‘your mouth says No,No, but your eyes say Yes Yes’ issue.

The issue I have is for joe sixpack, this is not how these types of items are generally adjudicated.

It’s complaint, warrant, bail, Grand Jury.
(See...Duke, Lacrosse...)

But what I mean is that for 99% of the male population, the accusation in and of itself, leads to more than DOI investigation.(actually less).

Ben got a pass because he had legal muscle.If he was Ben from Burger King, he wouldn’t have been asked to talk about it.

They’d have showed up at his door, cuffed him, fingerprinted him etc...and a GJ would have decided if he needed to be tried.

no, i see your point that regular joes won’t fare as well. but, i do think rich/famous attract nuisance suits hoping for a $$$ pay-off rather than having it actually go to trial.

Cabrito is only served in the spring most places, because that is when most goat kids are born. Also, if the goats are are multi-purpose-dairy goats for organic goats’ milk and cheese, fancy goats to keep the grass short and be living lawn ornaments, or wool producing goats, like the Angoras some of my family raises, the only kids that are going to be sacrificed for food are the culls-the prime kids, like lambs are worth more on the hoof than on the grill.

i felt very out of place w/o a tat... ; )

Here's Where it All Began... The Dinosaur Bar-B-Q was started in 1983 by three bikers, bound together by the love of good food, a 55 gallon drum cut in half, and a serious case of wanderlust. For five years the road was our home, slinging Bar-B-Q at motorcycle shows, fairs, and festivals up and down the east coast. It is from our travels that our Bar-B-Q evolved. By 1988, burnt out from the road, our gypsy journey settled into downtown Syracuse and opened up as a take out BBQ joint. In 1990, feeling the need to couple some booze with our Bar-B-Q, we doubled our space and added a full bar and waitress service. Blues always served as our musical backdrop so the next step became live music. Starting with our first act, Dr. Blue, we went from one night of live music to two, then three.... as they say, the rest is history. Over the last decade, our Bar-B-Q has been nationally acclaimed, as well as our blues club, as one of the best in the country. We're really proud of that. We also manufacture and distribute five of our own specialty sauces throughout the U.S., England, and Australia.

Delicious indeed-they are not sick animals like many think-any farm animal cull, no matter what it happens to be is just an animal that has been deemed less than optimum for producing wool, milk, babies-or for not having the best exotic features of the fancy goats and sheep that make them such expensive live lawn decorations. Boer goats are one of the few goat species here bred mostly for their meat, and a surprising amount of it is sold outside of the US.

When I was a child, the young turkeys were culled once a year and we ate turkey until we never wanted to see it again-to this day, I dislike the thought of enchiladas made with poultry...

Pork makes far tastier BBQ, in my opinion-more of a variety of cuts of meat, sauces to be used, etc. Next to ribs, plain old carnitas de puerco-loin strips with Jack Daniels grilling sauce with some spicy mustard added are my favorite-quick and inexpensive too.

I actually thought of getting myself a tat right after hubby died-I really don’t know why I wanted to, but I’m pretty sure I’d have regretted it, then been stuck with the thing like some of my friends have.

LOL......not bodice rippers at all. just books for females...usually multi-generational women, set is small southern towns. perfect for a women’s book club. not sure if you are all female or not. men would not like these books. she has some folk lore or mystery woven into the stories. any one of her books would work for a woman’s book club, and I bet at least one of you reads all her books. interesting story lines that are developed and give good starting points for discussions. I think you would like it. just a pleasant interlude.

i love the swan thieves, but i have to limit my fiction because it’s like candy, i want to just eat it non-stop, and then i don’t go to bed and don’t get enough sleep etc. That’s why vacas are good, bc i can “gorge” on books.

That’s the inherent beauty of a book club. It forces you to read things you would never pick up on your own and learn from other’s perspectives. I enjoy my club, because I’m not the oldest or the youngest and we have all kinds of women in it. It started with friends from church but we’ve picked up other members from outside the church by word of mouth. I think you might be pleasantly surprised. I know I was.
