It's just inconceivable to me that anyone, much less her mother, could harm such an adorable, sweet little girl as
Caylee. And in reading the 'net news, it appears millions of other people agree with those of us on here who have condemned not only her mother but the jurors who acquited her.
Something I don't understand though is a story I read that claimed the grandparents have received death threats. Hell, they're the ones who got the initial investigation started.

Here's hoping that she gets her comeuppance sooner than later.
Preferably much, much sooner.
What's REALLY going to upset me is if the news stories that she'll make big bucks telling her story comes true.
Caylee was the most adorable-looking little princess I ever saw and it just makes me sick to my stomach to think her killer will go free. -
That man deserves the death penalty.
So does Casey Anthony, I think. In fact, I think any animal that hurts a small innocent child deserves capital punishment. -
Give this guy the bin Laden treatment. Holy hell, what is this world coming to.
Sure not the world we grew up in, is it? Dammit... -
Wish I was sitting on this jury. The witch would be in deep kimchee.

Thanks, guys, for answering my question. I was just curious if you folks have the same problems understanding English spoken by Americans as I sometimes have understanding the language as spoken by some British actors. I really have problems with some London dialects.

A probably-stupid question recently arose in my feeble little mind that I'm sure my cousins in the UK can answer. Is any of the dialogue in American-made films shown in the UK ever dubbed so our English, Scot and Irish cousins can more easily understand it? I know that certain American dialects are pretty hard to understand, even for some Americans.
As a native-born Southerner, I don't have problems understanding other Southerners (except for some folks from Louisiana) but I sometimes have problems understanding certain dialects from the Northeast. And I often have a really hard time understanding some Britishers in films, even though English is (more or less) my native language.
Personally, I think Americans from the upper Midwest and the West itself speak the most easily-understood English in the U.S. -
Interesting article. But there's no mention of the genocide practiced by Stalin in the 1930s, when literally millions of Russians were slaughtered by the ruling communist regime.
Also, I personally regard Putin as more or less a throwback to some of the Soviet Union's more dictatorial leaders. -
He sure as hell ain't one of the top Marine NCOs I remember. 30 years ago, there would have been a mass exodus from the Corps before they would have accepted this.

I read that Jack Nicklaus gave the kid some tips before the Open began. They must have been good ones.

You go, girls.

No surprise here.
Though both of 'em have ostensibly introduced a bit of economic free enterprise during the past few years, they're both still communist nations at heart. -

It would have been one thing to have dominated Europe, quite another to come across the Atlantic, unless they had come up with the bomb before us.

According to what I've read, they were working on the big one. That would probably have been disastrous for Great Britain. -
Think I'll pass!

Today is the 67th anniversary of D-Day, when the forces of good invaded Europe to oust the forces of evil.

Hi Jim. Glad to hear you're enjoying Connelly. Another author I might recommend is Nelson DeMille, admittedly an author I've just encountered and just now am reading the first book of his I am currently reading. But his story has grabbed my interest so far. BTW - I notice Lee Child's bio says he is a Brit transplanted to N.Y.C..
Jay,
Have you by any chance read any of Jonathan Kellerman's mysteries? His main characters are a psychologist named Alex Delaware and his homicide detective friend Milo Sturgis. Stugis is gay (Delaware is not) but has one of the best clearance records in the LAPD, which means his supervisors cut him a lot of slack with his sexual preferences. Delaware is a consultant to the LAPD and he and Sturgis collaborate on most homicide cases. Good reading which I'm sure you would enjoy if you like mysteries.

I really like this particular picture too. All it needed to make it complete was Prince Bill's Grandma standing behind all the young'uns.

Thanks, Mike.
I always get a kick out of British royal family ceremonies and occasions. Everything is so colorful and grand. Looks like something out of a fairy tale. -

Thanks for the info, May. You're obviously very familiar with the peerage. Or was this info posted somewhere online?
They're all cute kids.
