He'll never get selected for her trial. I hope it's something really boring.

If he gets selected there's another HUNG JURY in store! :banghead:

 

[Tulessa]

He's 6'3" and I'm 5 feet even. He takes his size after my dad's family. Mom's dad was 5 feet. Cherokee's are so short.

I have yet to share any music yet I have so enjoyed the music that has been shared.

I grew up near a place called Tanglewood, the summer home of the Boston symphony. Back in the day, the 70's mostly Tanglewood also held popular concerts, like The Who, Santana, Jethro Tull, Chicago, etc. Those were stopped quite a few years ago now although we still have James Taylor who lives nearby and always plays there every summer (his current wife worked for the Boston symphony).

So, this is my "local" music, so to speak...

No summer is complete without Sweet Baby James . Listen for the crowd shouting for "Stockbridge"-this was the one from 2010 with Carole King and Yo Yo Ma-have heard it every year since I was 10 I think

When I was a teen two of my faves to hear were James Taylor and Carly Simon. He also performed with Joni Mitchell and Carole King a lot back then at Tanglewood and the Music Inn in the Berkshires. A bunch of us would go on Tuesday nights (cause the weekends were for the symphony). It was close to home and safe-we'd sit on the beautiful lawn overlooking the Stockbridge Bowl and listen to great music.

This was one of my fave songs when James & Carly were together

I also like classical music and my same friends would often get together and go to the Sunday afternoon concerts. I mean, we weren't going to go to the symphony on a weekend night! And now we've been bringing our boys to those concerts.

This was an amazing performance of Elijah performed in German from memory

But my kids are never going to go to concerts like this that I attended when I wasn't even a teenager cause I had a super cool older cousin with a convertible!

I loved, loved, loved seeing James at Tanglewood. He performed last night in Boston at a concert to support the victims of the bombings. I hope they haven't aired it yet on tv. He spoke about the lyrics of SBJ just today on HLN.
PS- I saw my very first JT concert with Carole King in 1971 at MSG. I was a mere child.

It would be nice if he is picked and it is a long trial and they are sequestered. That way he will totally miss JA's trial and cannot Tweet. jmo

Oh, I too am vertically challenged. :floorlaugh: I am same height as you, 5 foot.

I only read very briefly about it back when the Arias case first started. But what I read seemed to indicate there was no real evidence against her and she had no reason to have her son killed and it just didn't seem as likely than the alternative, that bad guys were involved and it had nothing to do with the Mom.

I want to read some more though before I cement my mind as my mind cement seems to harden quickly these days...

I got a lot of good info from the actual decision

And the state's appeal of that decision was denied.

i think she was wrongly convicted. While I cannot be completely sure of imnocence, conviction based on the testimony of a cop with that kind of known history, and no other evidence, was just wrong. I think it is incredibly spiteful of the state to have her still sitting in prison

No joke: I just got called for jury duty at Maricopa County Superior Court on July 18, the day Jodi Arias is supposed to go back to trial.

:facepalm:

That's too funny :floorlaugh:. They'll never pick him.
He'll just have a fit if he couldn't tweet or talk about the case. :floorlaugh:

Christmas in Sarajevo is the song that got me hooked also.
Here is there website. They have a DVD out. I have it and it is really good but it is nothing like there concerts.

Saw them a few years ago at UT Austin with my son. I had never heard of them. My son was a student there and told me about them and asked me to come on up. WOW!! What a trip! They were great. I think there are different musicians on tour playing under the Trans Siberian name. Don't know much about about that but it was a wonderful show.

Our son has always kept his hair short in a military style haircut but about a year ago he began to grow it long and at first I didn't like it as it was growing out but now.........WOW! He is gorgeous if I may say so myself. His hair is black, thick, silky, and very shiny. His wife loves it this way.

Everyone that knows him thinks he looks like a movie star.

He is 38 but looks maybe late 20s with a beautiful complexion and dark eyes.

He looks nothing like his mom though but that's ok. I always say I have to keep his birth certificate handy to prove he is mine.:floorlaugh: He looks like his dad.

IMO

Hi all!
I lurke lots, dont post too much .......yet.
hubby joining soon so that will help.
anyway, my grandson wears his hair long sometimes the shaves it off for football. He has a beautiful dark thick head of hair! Slightly wavy too.
then he shaves it off and it shows off his features better!
I cant decide what looks best
He doesnt care.....just get football going!
