LOL-Vixmom. I don't think Yogi would permit anyone to board him.

We thought that was great too. Her expressions were wonderful & she did give him every opportunity to realize his mistake. Was this also realistic?

Oh, one thing that isn't right is that they have omitted "So help me God" from the oath. Now it's just "Do you swear or affirm that the testimony you are about to give is the the truth the whole truth and nothing but the truth?"

Do you still put one hand on a Bible?

Danise, the bed would probably have been too narrow anyway.

To be quite honest, I wasn't really sure about it. A twin when I'm used to a double. Not to mention that Bear has slept with me since the first night I got him. He wouldn't understand why he couldn't sleep with me anymore. He's old and I would never want to hurt him.

He's having enough trouble with missing Mom. He's my shadow from the moment I step in the door. He's laying beside me as I type this.

Nursie, you're the apple of many eyes.

Just for you, I won't even start on my repertoire of JAP jokes.

Much appreciated.

Yes and no, most cops would just have looked at the prosecutor and answered the question, she was much more dramatic. But if you file a motion to keep out evidence and you ask questions that "open the door" then the evidence can come in.

Nope. Just raise your right hand. The only Bibles I've seen in the courtroom are my client's or a spectators

Danise · « **Reply #338 on:** September 04, 2007, 07:27:44 PM »

Well it's almost 10:30 (can you believe it?) but I guess I do have to go to bed.

Good night to all!

This actually makes figuring out how to ask questions an art. You want to dance around issues sometimes without explicitly asking a question that can only elicit the answer of what you didn't want in evidence. You also have to be careful to advise your witnesses what they can and can't say, if they spill the beans or if it's evidence you want in that is excluded and you ask the question that elicits the answer...it's usually a mistrial.

Not sure, but I think so. I've been in courtrooms since 1986 and have never heard the old oath or seen a bible sworn upon

Jane · « **Reply #345 on:** September 04, 2007, 07:33:16 PM »

I was at a mattress store. My back/body desperately needs a new mattress. I think I have found the one I want. It is one of those high pillow top mattresses & Sherlock shouldn’t be jumping on and off such a high bed. For now, I’ll keep looking.

The drive home took me right past Baskin Robbins & I have over-indulged with their new heath bar something. It is toffee ice cream with heath bar & caramel.

Jane · « **Reply #346 on:** September 04, 2007, 07:36:03 PM »

I had to swear an oath in court. I was so nervous I would burst out laughing I can't swear to the fact their was a bible or the oath was to God. I thought it was.

Jane · « **Reply #347 on:** September 04, 2007, 07:36:44 PM »

I must wash the dishes or Sherlock's bowl won't be clean for his breakfast.

Hmm looks like they still do say "so help me God" in some places, but I know I haven't seen a Bible in a court room

No comment on my almost laughing attack. Have you ever seen that happen?

Cillaliz · « **Reply #350 on:** September 04, 2007, 07:45:18 PM »

Lots of people laugh when they are nervous.

I did a google and it looks like there are a lot of places using "So help me God" that's interesting

Cillaliz · « **Reply #351 on:** September 04, 2007, 07:45:59 PM »

If I had started laughing I would have lost control.

If that DRJOSE shows up around here, tell him to turn around and go out the way he came in....just like Helen Lawson.

DR td - I keep forgetting to tell you how much I like your new avvy.

They posted an updated press release on All That Chat for us, mentioning Rob and Amy. As you may remember, last time they posted our press release (a second time, just as they did for Such Good Friends, which was right below us), a freak named "westcoastdrama" came on and posted a nasty and negative and completely unnecessary post. Now, we've never seen this guy post in ANY other topic on that board. So, when this release appeared earlier this evening, I posted a humorous post after it, saying I hoped that westcoastdrama wouldn't be too miffed, and then linking to the Playbill article.

True to form, the freak posted something really nasty again - again, I believe I know who it is and when I get back to the West Coast there will be some REAL drama if I'm correct. He acts as though these releases are coming from ME personally - I do think people see through what he's doing, but he's obviously trying to create negative buzz about us, and why? To what end? Is this peckerwood such a loser that that's the only way he can get his kicks? Because only a complete failure would do something like this.

I think I will watch FLYING DOWN TO RIO in about an hour or so.

I watched THE SNIPER earlier today....and it is very strange to see Mr Arthur Franz, the hero of INVADERS FROM MARS playing such a crazy mean bad person.....and very well too.

As MR BK wrote when we discussed this film earlier this summer, there are a couple of jump out of your seat moments.....
