Living in Ontario in the early-mid nineties, it was impossible not to know way too much of the details. Starting from the fear of the Scarborough Rapist (S-boro is a suburb of Toronto), and the gradually unfolding horror as they figured out what happened. I get a sick feeling just hearing their names.
Oh, Pacey! You blind idiot. Can't you see she doesn't love you?

So what is your favorite breakfast?
I'd like to know why I keep having spooky, menacing dreams that end with a thunderclap that wakes me up. I like thunder. It doesn't really scare me. And there is no thunder happening at 6:15 am here.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Cindy, brenda gave the digest version of what's at my link.
Calli, health-ma to your mother. Also, on the fingernails part, is a manicure an option? I was an incurable nailbiter until I started getting manicured. Plus, it can be relaxing in its own right.

Trust my rage
I just found out that I passed the ethics exam (needed to get my bar license)! Almost everyone passes, but it still makes me feel good to know that I have one less thing to worry about.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
My favorite breakfast is a pumpernickle bagel with vegetable cream cheese and a decaf hazlenut coffee with milk.

I can't even.
I know disturbingly too much about Bernardo/Homolka as we prosecuted that case here. Essentially, the manslaughter deal with her was made before the hidden videotapes were produced by the defence, in order to seal the case against the most wanted man in the country. The defence lawyer responsible for that was later disbarred. 12 years is a top-end manslaughter sentence, and now she has served her time.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
Calli, I hope they can figure out quickly what's going on with your mom. I'm crossing my fingers that it's nothing serious.
eta: and congrats to Stephanie!

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Yay noniasteph! Not that any of us doubted your ethics.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Is there sex-offender registry in Toronto/Canada? Cause I can't think of a better candidate.
As for student loan interest, I gather the question has gone by, but it's a deduction you can do on the 1040 and 1040A forms (but not the 1040EZ), with no "schedule ABCXYZ" extra forms.
Who, me? Do my brother's taxes and puzzle out whether he owes capital gains? How did you guess?

Ann, that's a ferret.
Congrats, Stephanie!
If you're willing to disclose, which state's bar are you going for?
