  1. Seems to be solid evidence from Marin's clothing that at the time of the shooting he was on top of Zimmerman. There are conflicting eyewitness accounts. Some say they saw Zimmerman on top, so maybe they wrestled around a bit. I can't answer your specific questions. I kind of hope Hixter can.
  2. Then you're a pretty shitty neighborhood watch volunteer.
  3. Whoa! Glad to hear about this salute, but not sure I'd wanna hear Dylan sing it.
  4. They will not be able to prove race was a motive. Parents filing a wrongful death suit is the only chance of the courts holding Zimmerman accountable..
  5. I can't tell you much about Binaural and Riot Act. I think I heard Binaural once and Riot Act never. I've always been on ho-hum on PJ in general. All I can say about Backspacer is that it's rock and roll.
  6. And the last album was the 1st one since Vitalogy that I liked.
  7. Nearly 3 weeks with no activity in the baseball thread. Wow. Glad Lincecum got a no-no yesterday. I like him. Also, I was just so pissed at the Twins for their recent play, then they turn around and win 2 of 3 in the Bronx. Sure, the Yankees are old and injured, but they seem to always have the Twins' number. Hope at the all star break??
  8. See, that's just it, even the jury may think he's guilty. The don't find people innocent. All we know for sure is that they felt the evidence left a reasonable doubt of his guilt.
  9. 1) He got out of the car to identify which street he was on. This was in his neighborhood. If you believe this, then I can't imagine you really have an open mind to both points of view. He knew he went against the advice of authorities and probably thought up this lie to justify his being out of his car. 2) Martin was going for his gun. This one may actually be true, but I don't think so. I think the only way he knew the gun was there is if Zimmerman told him in an effort to get the upper hand in the fight they were having There are probably more, I watched most of the closing argumen
  10. I saw much if not all of that. Doesn't change my mind. The prosecutors made -- in IMO -- a very solid case that Zimmerman told many, many lies in his description of events. Even assuming Martin started the fight, the dude was following him and he was creeped out. Disregarding police advice is not a crime. Disregarding police advice that sets of a chain of events that leads to the death of an unarmed person does. I wholly agree with this sentiment.
  11. Total respect for jury. It's just hard to imagine justice was achieved when Mr. Zimmerman went against police advice to instigate a confrontation that, probably due to Mr. Martin's actions as well as Zimmerman's, led to the death of a 17 year old and he walks away guilty of nothing. I guess I hope the Martins sue for wrongful death and it settles out of court to avoid another TV trial.
  12. RT has not yet met Dylan on this tour. http://www.suntimes.com/entertainment/21250249-421/richard-thompson-on-the-road-with-bob-dylan.html
  13. With Low and RT. RT's voice is perfect for that tune, and the setting. WOW! Hope it turns up soon. https://twitter.com/Wilco/status/354779040604897280

  15. It all seems to have gone downhill around 2008, right around the time I started checking in quite a bit. I will take the blame on this one. Sorry guys.
  16. I'm not sure I get how it's disrespectful or an excessively entitled to request a song you want to hear whether that's what the audience in general wants to hear or not. There is bound to be a sense of entitlement, because the rules of the game entitle you. One of the highlights of my Wilco fandom was finding their cover of Color Me Impressed. I wouldn't request that at an LRS (not that I'd have the spare $$ required to get into one) because I don't think it would translate well to a solo acoustic show. My point is that 1) Yes, there is entitlement involved in these things, but that's part
  17. Wow, only 5 songs for RT. I sure hope he's pulling in some new fans with this!
  18. Let's hope much of the Arab world takes notice as to the man on the street reaction to the leadership of the Muslim Brotherhood. Let's hope this doesn't turn really ugly. I was just a kid, but I still remember, with absolute horror, the assassination of Sadat.
