Our TV stations in the US are occupied with the Kacee Anthony murder trial and I think it is sick that people want to know all the details. I think it is also sick that spectators are trying to kill each other to get a seat in the court.

DW thinks she should be acquitted because they, the jury, have be certain without a doubt that she did murder her little girl.

Would you like to participate in a poll?

Did she do it? yes or no..


Me = No

You can do a proper poll on here, you go down to the bottom of the page when you start your new thread........

Me - Don't know, have not heard of this case.

See that's the thing about working, I would be sick about being absent after just getting the job. This is maybe an American thing.

Once when I came back from a trip for the company and I was very sick and I called in to tell the boss I was sick and his response was 'I'll see you tomorrow then' Compassion all the way!

I agree you need to get yourself better which is the most important thing.

Cheers

NOT AN AMERICAN THING AT ALL!!!

I am just too ill to go to work, and the HR lady has told me to take the week off, she was there when this stupid thing happened and knows the score........as was the head honcho European manager.......

I have been in hospital for 2 days, had numerous tests including a lumbar puncture (spinal tap) not nice at all, still very stiff and sore and still got headaches and high blood pressure, believe me I don't feel good about taking time off, but my health is more important than any job.........when I went to Belgium I was fit and healthy but after doing that stupid team building exercise my blood pressure went through the roof and here I am, not so healthy after all..............:sneaky:

This in the Telegraph....she threw things at the police, escaped from handcuffs and then spat at the police.
The defense said she was such a nice girl and this was out of character.
No jail but 6 months probation.:confused::confused:
Where I live she would do time in jail.

Contrast this with a group who broke into a home and I think the home owners stabbed the hooded burglar and he died later in hospital. Who knows he, the burglar, may have been a nice guy. I think they arrested the three home occupants. There is more to this story I think.

Finally look at these photos of Cardiff and especially the last five pictures showing the young people drunk on the streets. I've heard about that happening.

Beedubya.......sorry about the blood pressure a nasty thing glad you are taking it easy. Hope you feel better soon.:)

Re: OVER 50's & 60's Chit-Chat & Daily Catch-Up Thread
 

Yes Cheers the 2nd story, three or four burglars broke into a mans house, the homeowner stabbed one of them to death and the police arrested him for murder :eek: this was just a few days after cameron just said that from now on the occupents of there home will no longer be arrested or pursued by the police when they are forced to take aggressive action to protect there home from burglary. or themselves from harm.
