Perfect is difficult, but biology makes it the default number, obv.

Not if we're discussing parenting as something different from being the biological mother and father, which I assume we are since we were talking about gay couples being parents.

Here you go. A little down the page it also had an old image of her crying with a subtitle "Amanda Knox weeps in court earlier today. She will now return to prison to continue her 26-year sentence for the murder"

Delightful insight about how the media prep stories with zero facts.

Not wanting to lower the tone, but totally would.

Even more so if she had actually done it.

Bizarre. She doesn't look like a dog's arse but neither is she a particular looker. In an average lineup of tasteful women there'd be nothing to make her stand out.

Actually no :D

But aye, the point I wasn't making well is that this is what happens - average bint is suddenly 'Foxy Knoxy' due to media attention rather than objective hotness.

I hope she goes back to the States and is relatively quiet out of respect for the victim. But I suspect Foxy Knoxy THE BOOK is inevitable.

When writing it, which of the five different versions of what happened that night that she gave to the police will she plump for, I wonder? Or will she play up to her image and write some kind of OJ Style "how I would have done it", but with added sex game filth?

Or will she reoffend? Which is, in my - completely unqualified but nevertheless considered and astute opinion - almost inevitable. It's in the eyes.

If you consider the technicality that she's been in prison for 4 years for something she didn't do, and will be both infamous and villified for the rest of her life, she absolutely must make a fuckton of money as both recompense and as a necessity to protect her from the loons that will plague her for the next 10-20 years.

Run-on sentence ftw.

Ah - now now - being acquitted on appeal is not proof that you didn't do it, merely demonstration that the prosecution couldn't prove their case. She could well be guilty as fuck and this is just down to the incompetent Italian rozzers.

Personally, of course, I have no idea if she did it or not but given the prosecution case seemed to be largely based on the fact that she likes sex they certainly didn't prove their case to a particularly high standard, even notwithstanding the fucked up forensics.

Thanks for the birthday wishes (and happy birthday to Grim...)

Its on the main page (assuming you put your real date of birth on the signup page) - however as previously mentioned there is no where near as much traffic at the weekends so its more likely your day will be missed

Happy birthday for yesterday - Happy Grim... day for today - and Happy Birthday for anyone else who's been missed :-)

BACK AND TO THE LEFT!

Science bods should find this cool. Or should I say... HOT!?

Comet hits the sun (possibly) causing massive CME (coronal mass ejection, aka solar flare.)

Image



The gif is a bit more defined and slowed down. The video shows it in various styles, plus a super-zoomed in one which appears to show the comet zipping through the sun too. Anyway, lot of nutritious sun-goo shot off our way, due to hit any day now, so those super-far up North might get some awesome auroras. In the absence of human-eating walking plants I say, enjoy! Also small chance of it frying some satelites and power grids, the usual.

That pic was taken when she was arriving in court, as any one of the millions who saw that bit of footage on the news will know, so even if she had been sent back to prison the article would have failed on a technicality.

Quite a few of my female friends have expressed shock at the overturning of the verdict. From this, I can only surmise one of two possibilities:

1) They have absolute faith in the Italian Justice system
2) They don't like the idea of a hot bird set free upon the streets again

This means the real killer is still out there!

Or, alternatively, the Italian police have released 2 murderers into the world.

Either way, we're up on killers. Yay Justice!

Nothing I've heard gives me any faith in the Italian justice system.
But on a more general level, meh. I haveno idea whether they're guilt or not. Only what the newspapers think will sell.

It is a weird freaking case. I have no idea whether she was guilty, involved, innocent or just a mad fantasist who liked lying a lot.

Either way, very odd case.

Oh, and totally would. Danger shag to the max!

Ooooh, someone is being arrested right outside my office window. It's thrilling stuff. I'm hoping I'm at the centre of the final bringing to justice of a criminal mastermind, but it's probably more likely to result in a caution for shoplifting from Superdrug or something.
