I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I took an advil and I ate and my head still hurts and then it really hurts if I get up and move around. I am taking a hot shower and going back to bed.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

At some point in the fight, Martin hit Zimmerman's head against the sidewalk.

FWIW, I don't believe this. We only have GZ's word this occurred and TM had no DNA on his hands from GZ. I think most of GZ's wounds were self-inflicted.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

As i understand it TM also had no wounds or damage to his hands at all which, while not impossible, calls a whole lot of GZ's story into question.

What does "armed with the sidewalk" even mean? I mean, really?

What it means is that the defense attorney was setting it up for an appeal on the grounds of lousy counsel.

I agree. The wounds were very superficial, and Zimmerman wasn't treated for a concussion, as far as I know.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Popped in the nose and hit his head on the water meter is a lot more consistent with the physical evidence than "head bashed 25-30 times against the sidewalk"

You know, physical evidence.

Yes, they argued that he "weaponized the sidewalk".

They do realize that's not like "weaponized uranium", right?? Just because something has become part of a phrase doesn't mean you can substitute words into it willy-nilly!!

Me too. My fingers, lower back, shoulders, and knees have been trying to kill me for a few weeks now.

What is WITH this fucking weekend? If any of you are regulars at Balloon Juice, I expect you saw the news about General Stuck (commenter) and Tunch (supermassive cat/mascot/physical embodiment of the place) dying.

Oh, and TWO of our cars got clipped this weekend. While parked.

Also, my arms feel like they have rug burn from all the raspberry scratches. (I'd have finished pulling the unproductive canes, only someone CLIPPED MY NEW CAR, and I had to go in and rage blackout in private. Last straw and all.)
