I'm travelling and not able to post it, but the viral Zoom video of the criminal defendant appearing on a driving on suspended license charge who calls in while parking his car is amazing. I don't do trial work and have to deal with "on the spot" issues like this, but man, do I feel for the public defender there. Talk about your client not giving you anything to work with!

I saw it yesterday and it's amazing. The realization that he fucked up was great. The judge just looming at him while he was like, hold on I just gotta park real quick was amazing. Last edited by Atocep : 05-30-2024 at 01:06 PM. |

I'm not sure what thread exactly to put this in, I'll just stick it here for the people who might see it on crossover.
During the sorting through of my wife's extensive collection of purses, Will found her missing wedding ring today. I had, you may recall, basically written it off as lost for good. "Put in a safe place" ... that neither of us knew the location of. Not sure that's actualy what you'd call stuck in a frequently used but fairly random pocketbook, but whatever ... there it was. (Best we could figure, probably stuck in that bag when she was helping him move out & leave Oxford, MS for the final time) I literally just stared I think, almost unable to believe what I was seeing when he handed it to me. But as random things go, it was a pretty damned good one to say the least.

I just got chills.
I 100% believe that she sent that to Will to let you know she is with you still and watching over you. Last edited by Lathum : 05-30-2024 at 01:15 PM. |

I was (which is extremely rare) on the front porch outside just before we dove into that task ... and saw a cardinal fly by. I figured she was at least in the neighborhood.

Neat story.
Re: cardinal. Wife always thinks one of her grandmas is visiting her whenever she sees a solo butterfly around her flowers/vegetables. |

I never was much for the whole "cardinals as spirits" lore (see link for explanation if you're unfamiliar) but my wife was generally a proponent of it. In my own peculiar logic, it kind of makes sense that if it really is a thing then she'd be apt to make such an appearance since she subscribed to the notion. Makes about as much sense as that ring turning up today in a place that really was never considered as a major candidate for it.

My almost 5 year old daughter has recently gotten into Imagine Dragons some how, big time. As a result, she’s, also, started to watch their music videos on YouTube. I’m familiar with their music and think it’s fine, there is worse music a 4 year old could be into and I’m just not a music snob, my musical tastes are pretty basic and I am fine with that.
I haven’t watched music videos since the 90’s when they were on MTV. The video for “Radioactive” is very weird. Lou Diamond Philips is running some sort of underground stuffed animal fighting ring out in a barn somewhere. He has a mean giant stuffie that beats up all of the other stuffed animals and then he has a trap door in the floor where he sends the defeated puppets to the basement to be prisoners along with Imagine Dragons. Then Alexandra Daddario shows up in a mysterious robe carrying a pink teddy bear in a cage to fight Lou Diamond Phillips’ giant stuffed animal. The pink teddy bear has laser powers that it uses to beat the giant stuffed animal and laser away Lou Diamond Phillips’ goons and henchmen. Then Lou Diamond Phillips falls into the fighting pit and the pink teddy bear pulls the handle and Lou Diamond Phillips falls into the basement dungeon. Alexandra Daddario frees Imagine Dragons from the dungeon and Lou Diamond Phillips is left that to, apparently, meet his end at the hands of all the stuffed animals he’d been imprisoning there. The end.

I think Imagine Dragons appealing to a 5 y/o girl is pretty much spot on for them.
She'll likely outgrow it Them? Probably not much hope for improvement at this point. (Yes, they're kind of poster children for what I rail about never warranting the word "rock" being associated with)

This really isn't a weird story so I didn't think it belonged there, but I'm posting it here with a not-so-random thought:
