LOL! I had a nice Thanksgiving, but, this year was the most memorable one. Last week my daughter and I were watching a documentary on television about turkeys. It was showing the turkeys in their habit. How they live, how they protect their babies et al. It was an interesting documentary.
So, fast forward to Thanksgiving day. There I was preparing the turkey, doing all the things you normally would do to a turkey. So, quite a few hours later the turkey was done. I took it out of the oven set it on the dinner table and felt sick to my stomach! After watching that documentary about my soon to be Thanksgiving dinner, I suddenly had an attack of conscious about eating this 22 pound turkey on my table!
There it was 22 pounds of cooked turkey carcass on my beautifully decorated table. Friends and family were gathered around the dinner table salivating over the turkey, while I was feeling very ill just by the mere sight of it on my dinner table. I finally told everyone that I could not eat my own turkey that I had prepared.
There is something very wrong about seeing my food alive before I eat it and then seeing it's carcass on dinner table!...lol So, I did not eat turkey on Thanksgiving. Although, I did eat some other deliciously prepared foods Even with my sudden attack of conscious about not eating turkey I had a great Thanksgiving.

Yes, I remember the group and No, they were not in competition with Wild Orchid. It's like comparing apples to oranges really. She Moves, well, really didn't move anywhere and although Wild Orchid wasn't winning awards and collecting platinum records, Wild Orchid by far were more well known than She Moves at that time.

Hey Nicki! I've been away on holiday for a week so today's little verdict for the penalty phase came as a surprise to me. I thought for sure he would get LWOP, but, I guess either way, he'll be in prison forever. It's now time for him to pay for his crimes, so, he will do that on death row.

Yes, life without parole would be a better punishment. I think he needs to rot everyday in prison thinking about the reasons why he is there. True, that there wasn't dynamite physical evidence, but there was circumstantial evidence. Which makes up about 90% of all criminal cases. Direct evidence means there were witnesses to a crime. Process of elimination leads you to believe that he was the only person who could have done it. Whether you believe she was killed on the night of the 23rd or on the morning of the 24th, he was the last person to see her alive on both days.
To believe Peterson's shyster of a lawyer, Mark Geragos, there were a person or persons who kidnapped an 8 month pregnant Laci Peterson while supposedly walking her dog on the morning of December 24th, 2002 wearing no coat in 40 degree weather, killed her, weighted her body down in the SF Bay and framed her husband for the murder.
When people frame other people, they usually know each other. To believe the defense theory, you have to believe that there's some guy out there kidnapping pregnant women, murdering them, and then framing their husbands for the murder. The reward for Laci was $500,000. You mean to tell me that some other guy framed Scott, only to not collect the reward money? So, there's some guy kicking back in his Lazyboy drinking a beer, thinking, yeah, I got that Peterson guy, he's going to death row while I live it up in my trailer without half a million dollars! Yeah, right! A likely story!
I am elated that the jury didn't believe the defense's wild theories. This case came down to pure common sense. The case didn't have a bloody murder scene, no eye witnesses, but it did have the defendant's own words that convicted him. I get really excited knowing that he's about to become somebody's bitch in prison!

I'm not sure if you all have been following the murder trial of Scott Peterson, but today was the day justice was handed out. Today, after a grueling 5 month trial Scott Peterson has been found GUILTY of the murders of Laci Denise Rocha Peterson and Conner Peterson. May God be with her family right now, for justice has been served and two murders have now been avenged.

I would hope that everyone here knows that voting is very important. It is my hope that all of you will exercise your right to vote on November 2nd. Although, it is one thing to vote and another to know why you are voting. Vote because you know the issues, not because P. Diddy told you to, vote because you know what each candidate stands for, not because MTV told you to. Vote because you want change and you know why you want change, not because the Dixie Chicks and The Black Eyed Peas told you to. Vote because you have a mind of your own. Don't vote for either candidate because some celebrity told you to. My only advice to all of you is to seriously educate yourselves on the issues first before casting your votes. The more you know about the issues, the candidates, their positions, and their policies the better you will feel about casting your votes.
