And just fair warning.. af_vet_1981 is just as bad a cinFLA, in a different way. lol I decided yesterday to put them both on mental ignore in all threads pertaining this the case because they have debating skills whatsoever and just like to harrass people.

Leaving aside my own dismal failures for a moment or several thousand, I would like to blame Presidents Franklin Delano Joe Stalin Roosevelt, James Earl Killer Wabbit Carter, and William Jefferson BJ Clinton and his co-president for their failures, than which it is difficult to imagine anything dismaller. Except those failures of Prime Ministers Pierre Bisexual London School of Economics Commie Trudeau and Jean F***ing Bastard Worthless Sack Of S**t Chretien. Thank you.

Please send me a freepmail if you can't figure out what the asterisks stand for, Miss Whyisa. I probably won't answer, but it'll be that much less time you spend up to something likely to bring civilization to a crashing halt.

How're you doin', Miss C?

yes i did immediately detect that those 2 were the worst. i am engaging them now, and will continue to harp on the namecalling. that is my point. i am not saying the man is innocent. i have no idea if he did it. but i know as much as they do, and there sure is reasonable doubt.

"well your anniversary is tomorrow isn't it? ; ) "

It's today! :-p We got married July 24, 1997. And the hubby isn't allowed to get me anything because he won't let me get him anything so if he gets me something I'll feel like crap for getting him nothing. lol The trip this weekend is the gift. I have asked for months though for one of theo Gameboy AP advance's (i think that's what they are called) and some super mario games but he wanted to do the trip instead. He's taking Friday, Monday, and Tuesday off work though so we can have a long weekend.

you can't be serious about the LA spin machine? that is right out of the CinFLA and Af_Vet81 posts. all i am saying is that there is every bit as much chance that the girlie got more than she bargained for in having sex with kobe, in one way or another, and that he did NOT necessarily rape her.

Do I think that the media in LA has a vested interest in making Kobe's accuser look bad? Yes, definitely. He lied to the world when he said everything was just fine until the DNA evidence and hospital exam info came out. Then he hauled the wife and lawyers out for the teary press conference about his 'adultery'. It's just so... clintonian.

And vice versa. I'll leave it to the judge and jury. The media has already passed judgement.

Just fine thank you. Been too hot up here lately, the apartment's always a steam bath, but I guess I shouldn't complain because you guys are REALLY getting nailed, I understand.
