Re this freakshow that recently happened near where I live because of that weird disappeared kid case:
A family of protesters made its way to the home of the grandparents of Caylee Anthony Monday morning.
Ericka Courtney, her husband and their three children showed up at the Anthonys’ home with signs to protest what they called a lack of support for the missing 3-year-old.
Courtney and her family even started banging on the front door, demanding to speak with George or Cindy Anthony.
Orange County Sheriff’s deputies eventually arrived and cited Courtney for trespassing.
“Why I’m here today is to say what happened to Caylee is wrong, and there should be more people standing in support to figure out where the child is,” a tearful Courtney told News 13. “Don’t support this family; don’t support George and Cindy. Support Caylee, and find out where she is.”
Courtney told News 13 the case of Caylee Anthony hit home with her family, because she lost a daughter years ago.
I have one question: what. Fucking. Business. Is it of these people? I don’t care that you lost your daughter recently, lady. That’s what therapy is for. Harassing the families of missing kids (regardless of whether or not one of them did away with the child) won’t bring your daughter back, and your actions on live tv in front of God and everybody only cements Florida’s status as a nuthouse full of low-class trash.
Update: just to clarify, I saw this on a news segment on tv this morning, and it really irritated me. The woman was carrying on as if she was on Oprah. Did she even know the missing kid? I think not. I think this is a case of some people have to be the bride at every wedding and the corpse at every funeral, and be in everyone else’s business.

They are card carrying members of what Florence King calls the, “care and compassion set.”

I almost forgot. The new design is beautiful.

Thanks — I didn’t make it up myself, just downloaded it from a WordPress themes site, but I did tweak it a little. (Mostly I got rid of an ugly diagonal stripe background, changed the fonts a little — if your system doesn’t have Century Gothic then you won’t notice, but another sans serif should kick in.)
It was time for a change. I can feel autumn in the air, even down here in Central Florida. Autumn always makes me want to go dark.

Hee hee, Florence King references always are a plus with me.
