Jury's been deliberating about 8 hours now in the local police stop murder trial (two blocks from my work.) We've done ok with this kind of thing in recent years - since the huge 2001 riots - but I wish this wasn't happening this week, of all weeks.
And I just read that some schools in the West End and Clifton are letting students out early today in anticipation of the verdict, while 2 schools on the West side (???) are considering releasing students early. They're all Catholic schools, which is odd. I'm wondering if the CPS superintendent is freaking out a little.

Okay, the Enquirer said this about CPS: "Cincinnati Public Schools said in an statement Thursday that district officials are in 'constant communication' with the Hamilton County Emergency Management Agency (EMA), the Homeland Security Agency and Cincinnati police concerning the 'progress, timing and any issues that may arise as a result of the verdict.' "
I get the feeling everyone is expecting an acquittal.
Tom, have you tried the "beeb" Chrome extension that lets you run iPlayer?
Do you not like the guy from Psych? Because he's really funny in this.
Oh no, I like him fine, but the other guy is better-looking?
JESSE! This episode has Hugh Bonneville! Obviously you must watch it.
My prom date! OK, I will check it out some day. I'm currently feeling a little oppressed by the dozens of episodes of Buffy piling up on my DVR. I watched two last night, and man, Kendra's accent is even more comical than I remembered.
I'm going to the movies tomorrow, I'm seeing Arrival with amyth!!!
Jelly!

Marple, Poirot et al were all on ITV, though.
AND it's at our new Alamo Drafthouse, so I can watch and drink beer!
There was an earlier, 1980s Marple on the BBC.
Lovely, just got the price estimate for my carpal tunnel. $900+ dollars. As always, I'm hugely grateful we can afford it, and so angry thinking about the state of insurance in this fucking country.
Gud, I must be wording my question wrong because that list does not answer it. I'll give it some more thought later.
Have they updated the Beeb extension? Because the last iPlayer update made it stop working a few months ago, at least for me.
Ow. Got drunk with friends last night, which felt amazing at the time but now my stomach is staging a revolution and I don't like it one bit.
