Happy Birthday Kathryn!
Today is Kay's birthday!
I spoke to her just now and she is headed to Salem to visit with Steph, Crystal and, hopefully, Judi. What a fabulous way to turn 66! She feels very loved she said.
I am at work. I will be working this weekend - John is going to trial on a police misconduct case and I am doing his jury instructions. It is a very interesting case - the plaintiff is a bad, bad, guy and he was doing bad, bad, things at his arrest. But, one officer, in an attempt to subdue and arrest him, put his foot on the guy's head (or stomped on it, depending on who you believe). They guy suffered minimal injuries from that (if any), and is now sitting in prison where he will be for a long long time. Nevertheless, he would like to get a nest egg for when he gets out, I guess.
What fun! I love America (no sarcasm in that statement). Where else are civil rights so important that we allow a bad guy to have his day in court under these circumstances? It speaks very well for us, I think. It will be VERY interesting to see what a jury will do with this. We offered $$, but the plaintiff wouldn't take it. Heck, he has nothing to lose, so he may as well roll the dice.
I'll let you know what happens!
Love,
Dee
