The Peterson Case Has Served It's Purpose, So Now
it's over. I don't believe in the death penalty. I have very mixed feelings about this case though.

1. No, MSNBC just said they would be discussing his

chances for an appeal. He's the gift that keeps on giving.

6. Lets see. . . .
They will dredge up Michael Jackson, Tony Blake (the Baretta guy), and they still have years of appeals by Scott Peterson.

Don't forget O.J. He hasn't done anything recently and Mike Tyson.

8. They're scouring the news services even as we speak
The "news" media just can't wait to sniff out the next murder case involving reasonably attractive upper-middle-class white people, preferably under 40 and living in a major metropolitan suburb.

And when they dig up that golden bone, look for months and months of airtime gnawing.

5. Honestly... I think they must wish he'd kill a fellow inmate on death row.

Uh, oh... I guess I should not give any the idea....Milking and milking and milking a story for all it is worth.....Surely, annual stories for Babawa Waawa.... But then again, Michael Jackson is in the bullpen, warming up! Then there is always that Gary Condit retrospective....
