I'm currently Juror 16. Meep. 32-day trial!
Holy crap! That's a long trial.
This all reminds me that I'm convinced I worked with someone on the Clinton grand jury. At least, I worked with someone in the DC area who was on a grand jury at that time. I'm pretty sure I left the temp job while it was still happening.
Sounds like he's got as much history as Weinstein.
Yes. Nobody I know in the TV/film/theater world was surprised.
I forget if I've said it here, but an old coworker of mine was picked up by James Toback (young, tall, blonde, new to New York), so yeah, none of any of this is actually a secret.
I've moved up to Juror 12. And I think we are already on Day 4? They gave us the list of court dates the first but I am not sure I caught them all...
Jury selection : still not finished. I'm guessing wearing a costume to court tomorrow would be a bad idea.
I think I took the good Monday from everyone else. Sorry! But I had a really positive, really promising interview today for a job I could do really well, that's local and would significantly increase my pay, and I've been on cloud 9 cautiously optimistic all day.
That's great, Amy! Good luck!
Yay, Amy! Fingers crossed for you!
My Monday has been good, what with the indictments and schadenfreude.
Can't link because I'm at rehearsal, but WaPo has a "Trump watches TV and fumes" story.
Here's Dana's link: [link]
Amy, good luck!
I think I already knew a) Kevin Spacey was gay and b) about the incident with Anthony Rapp. I read Rapp's memoir so maybe it was in there. But I definitely had Kevin Spacey on my mental list of creeps.
Anthony Rapp has talked about it before, but this is the first time that Spacey's name was published. Rapp did an interview a few years ago (with GQ, maybe? Can't remember) where he told the same story, but the magazine published it without Spacey's name -- just "a well-known actor" or something like that. I kind of wonder what made Buzzfeed think that they were legally safe now, when other places wouldn't publish it.
