Hey, all Wire fans! I just found out that my as of today-ex next-door-neighbor worked for the Wire S4. Not onscreen, he just was one of the tutors for the child actors, hung out with the whole crew. How wild is that? Ok, this is Smalltimore, so not that wild, but still pretty funny.

He won't have a long life in jail. Not long enough.

Looks like the not guilty ones were the ones related to what Mike McQueary saw -- they didn't have enough evidence for those. That explains why the jury asked for a refresher on what hearsay means this afternoon.

Thrive to spite them

I was pretty sure they were going to find him guilty. His defense wasn't that strong. I didn't follow the trial that closely but his lawyer didn't seem all that great.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

1--I'm a little surprised a men's small is so big on me, and I swear I even took my measurements, but hey! Boyfriend jacket, except cooler. BATMAN IS MY BOYFRIEND. Thank you very much...
2--your ex-neighbour tutored DRUG DEALERS????
3--I need to see which three he got clear of

But, also, seriously, they're writing Gina Torres' role way bigger this season of Suits, and it's amAYzing. She gets to be uber brilliant and uber bitchy and uber in control, and it couldn't be less Zoe except still damn cool. Well, basically everyone is bitchy and really good at their job, but she's running the company.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Excellent jacket, ita !!

Sandusky is going to jail. For a while I feared he wouldn't.

When I read that his adopted son was coming forward to testify about being molested, I knew he was toast.
