One of the co-founders of the well known 'crips' gang is on death row, and has been sentenced to die in December. Stanley "Tookie" Williams was convicted of from what I am reading a total of at least 4 murders back in the late 70's and early 80's. It's amazing this man is still alive.
A well known actor by the name of Mike Ferrell (I personally have no idea who he is), said the proceedings failed to consider "his value, his change, his transformation." So my comment on this one is, because he has become a better person in prison, he should be let off on 4 counts of murder? YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME.

It's June 1st. The weather is awesome. And I am starting to embark on the last leg of my Stonybrook Survey project. I should be able to get through this area of it, in a few days.
I've also just purchased my flight for Tahoe over the 4th of July weekend. It would have cost me a few hundred less, if I were to do it a month ago. It happens.
I go get back to work now. Damien's birthday is on Friday, I think we'll be doing something on Saturday night for him.
Amusing Blonde Joke
Homer, a handsome guy, walked into a sports bar around 9:58 PM.
He sat down next to this blonde at the bar and stared up at the TV.
The 10:00 news was on. The news crew was covering a story of a man on a ledge of a large building preparing to jump.
The blonde looked at Homer and said, "Do you think he'll jump?" Homer says,"You know, I bet he'll jump." The blonde replied, "Well, I bet he won't."
Homer placed $20 on the bar and said, "You're on!" Just as the blonde placed her money on the bar, the guy did a swan dive off of the building, falling to his death.
The blonde was very upset and handed her $20 to Homer,
saying, "Fair's fair. Here's your money."
Homer replied, "I can't take your money, I saw this earlier on the 5 o'clock news and knew he would jump." The blonde replies, "I did too; but I didn't think he'd do it again."
Homer took the money.......
