Will Casey Anthony Go Back to Jail Today?

Posted in News & PSA's at 7:02 am by Donna

I’m not a psychic or anything, but logic tells me that Casey had better kiss all of her beloved bedroom things and answer all of her text messages and update her Myspace and Facebook accounts because at this point, she has run the train of the spoiled little girl who got everything she ever wanted and still spit in her parents face, figuratively, off of the tracks and is heading toward a lifetime in womens prison!

There are so many things that this girl could have done but instead she decided to live her life like an MTV reality show, as many her age do (I have an 18 year old daughter), and now she will live the life of nothing.

According to CBS13 in Orlando Florida, Leonard Padilla says that after reading the 400 pages of documents released on Monday that he no longer believes that Casey is telling the truth and that the evidence will force his nephew, Tony Padilla to make the decision as to whether to revoke Casey’s bail or not, believing that they were “duped” or that they “overestimated” Casey Anthony.  He also states that Anthony has not made an effort to help the bounty hunters find her missing daughter.

It was obviously not the thing to do now, because she didn’t talk,” Padilla said. “She didn’t say a word to anybody.”

When asked where he thought Caylee was now, Padilla answered, “You know, the car was parked next to a dumpster. I would hate to think the worst. God, it’s terrible to think she’d be at the local garbage dump. It’s terrible to think that.”

Many are starting to speculate that Casey may have given Caylee something (like Benydryl) to get her to sleep so that she could party and that may have led to Caylee’s death.  There were some rumors that she put Caylee in the trunk while she went into a club and that there were signs in the trunk of “struggle to get out” but I have not yet found any sound documents to confirm that.  I’m sure it will be on the news since the DNC Convention is almost over…

Also from the Orlando Sentinel:

“Officials have offered Anthony a partial immunity deal if she admits 3-year-old Caylee Marie died as a result of an accident. If she takes the deal, any information Anthony provides to law-enforcement could not be used against her in prosecution.

Danielle Tavernier, spokeswoman for the Orange-Osceola State Attorney’s Office, said they are not disclosing any details of their prosecution, but that Anthony had been “invited to our office to shed light on the disappearance of the victim in this case.”

Florida Sherrif’s investigators and FBI teams met with Casey and her mother, Cindy yesterday [Wednesday] afternoon at her attorney’s office, after the DNA evidence was released. Casey was only there for about 10 minutes and said nothing when she departed. Cindy Anthony left later in the afternoon, followed by the investigators. An investigator went to the Anthony’s home but only stayed for a few minutes.

“Neither Casey nor Cindy Anthony commented to reporters when they left the law office.  Jose Baez, Casey’s attorney, made a brief statement and answered a few questions outside the Anthony home, but would not say what the detectives said at his office or whom they spoke with.”

So, who is Casey’s attorney, Jose Baez, anyway?

From the Orlando Sentinel: (emphasis mine)

This sudden celebrity is a dramatic change for the boy who dropped out of Homestead High in the ninth grade, joined the U.S. Navy and attended Florida State University with plans of becoming a cop. He decided to be a lawyer his last year in Tallahassee.
Baez, who speaks Spanish and Portuguese, graduated from St. Thomas University in Miami in 1997, cut his legal teeth at the Miami-Dade Public Defender’s Office and opened his law firm in Kissimmee three years ago. He has another lawyer who works with him, along with an investigator and a paralegal.

If this was you or your daughter, wouldn’t you want a team of attorney’s or at least one who’s been in the field for longer than this?

All’s Quiet on the Caylee Anthony Search?? Nah!!

Posted in News & PSA's at 1:58 pm by Donna

You would think that this week, with the Democratic National Convention going on in Denver, that all is quiet on the Caylee Anthony story. 
Nope!
Casey Anthony may be thanking her lucky stars that most news coverage (cable news, at least) is concentrating on the political brew-ha-ha but no fear! 
Donna’s here!!

This story sends chills down the spines of every parent of every teenage daughter whose actions even slightly resemble those of Casey Anthony’s, or at least it should!

Okay, last week on Thursday the 21st, Casey (the “mother”) was released from jail on bond, provided by Leonard Padilla, a California bounty hunter.  Because Padilla is not from Florida, all Floridian bail bonds-men and women put the heat on officials to make sure every ’t’ was crossed and every ‘i’ was dotted.  That’s a good thing!  The more people watching this case, the more chance we have of getting to the bottom of it, right?

On Monday, August 25th, hundreds of documents were released pertaining to the case including:

Cindy Anthony calls her daughter a sociopath and a “mooch” but also says that her daughter (a proven liar) has been opening up to her and her father since being home from jail. 
ooo warm and fuzzy!

Kiomarie Torres Cruz, a friend of Casey’s told investigators she wanted to give Caylee up for adoption when she found out she was pregnant, but Cindy would not let her.  <Adoption is a wonderful thing but shows where her head was at.  Did that feeling ever go away?>

Amy Huizenga, another friend of Casey’s, testified that Casey repeatedly brought Caylee to adult parties!  Oddly enough, Amy Huizenga is dating one of Casey’s ex-boyfriends, Ricardo Morales.  Amy was also the person who told Cindy Anthony where she could find Casey on the evening of the 15th.  Amy claims that the Casey picked her up at the airport in Amy’s car.  Amy had loaned Casey the car for the week while she was gone.  She claims Casey stole some checks and approximately $700.

Anthony Lazzaro, Casey’s present-day boyfriend, says that he met Casey in May and has been dating her since June.  He claims that the last time he saw Caylee was on June 2nd at the pool at his complex.  He also stated that he has never heard of or met the alleged babysitter.  <Wow!!  A single mom’s boyfriend NOT knowing who the babysitter is?  Get the heck out of here!!>

Casey insists she last saw Caylee on June 9 when she handed her over to a nanny that no one can find and most likely, does not exist.  The arrest report says basically that that Caylee was last seen at 2863 S. Conway Road around Apt. #210 on June 9, 2008 between 9 am and 1 pm.  Casey reported that on her way to work at Universal Studios, she dropped Caylee off with her babysitter, Zenaida Gonzalez, who she has used for the past year and a half and yet no one, no friends, family or girlfriends or boyfriends have ever heard of this woman!

The arrest report pretty much states that several attempts and methods to get Casey to identify the woman who came forward, Zenaida Gonzalez were fruitless.  The woman could slap her in the face and Casey would still not recognize her!  <and I wish she would…slap her, that is>

Casey stated in her official police statement that she didn’t report it because “she’d seen movies and reports of missing people getting hurt if the police got involved.“  <is she going for insanity?>

Casey reported in her written statement that she was on her way to work at Universal Studios but investigators found that she had been fired back in April!!  She even tried to pull off a “field-trip” with the investigators, but finally confessed to lieing to the officials since she was leading them to “her office” which doesn’t exist!  I cannot believe she took it that far!!  That’s a lot of nerve!!  <What else does she have the nerve to do?  That’s scary!!>

Also, according to the arrest report, the reporting officer wrote, “In the course of this investigation, I received calls from several persons who know the defendant.  All claim she is a habitual liar and she has been known to steal from friends in the past.

<WOW!!!  I would strongly dislike being this girl’s attorney!!>

AT NO TIME during any of the police interviews did Casey “show any obvious emotion as to the loss of her child.  She remained stoic and monotone during a majority of our contacts“, documents state.

<Unbelievable……really!  It’s unbelievable!>

A friend of hers, Jesse Grund, testified that on July 18th he was asked to contact police in connection with Caylee’s disappearance, which he did and reported to them that he knew nothing. 
He then texted Casey and asked her “what was up?” and she answered back that Caylee has been missing for 32 days and that the nanny had her.  This triggered a memory that on June 27th, Casey texted him asking him to meet her at Fusions Nightclub to “cheer her up” so he called the police back!  <Thanks Dude!>
NOTE:  This would be 18 days (2 weeks) after Casey reportedly last saw Caylee!! 
In his testimony, he also mentions that Casey had a “falling out” with her family and needed to use his shower once because she had nowhere else to take one since Tony, her boyfriend, was out of town.
He also tells them that he noticed that Casey had deleted over 200 photos of Caylee and her from her Facebook and Myspace accounts suddenly going from 10 pages of photos down to only 4 pages.
And that on July 3rd, Casey texted Jesse telling him “If my mom or dad try to call you, don’t answer.  I will explain it later but for now just stay out of it.”  The next day, July 4th, Jesse called Casey to get an explanation to which she replied, “”It was a long story and I will probably call you when I get drunk to tell you.”

Wow!  Nice girl!  And that’s not all!

According to the Orlando Sentinel, <I’ll paraphrase, you’re getting tired…I can tell>

“An Orange County deputy has been sacked for lying about his relationship with Casey Anthony… 
Deputy Anthony Rusciano lost his job Friday after twice lying to investigators about the nature and length of his relationship with the missing child’s mother. 
…investigators received a tip that Rusciano knew Casey Anthony but upon being questioned Rusciano claimed he only met her in passing at a party. On Aug 18, when the sheriff’s office was conducting a “forensic analysis of the target’s computer” investigators learned that Rusciano had not told them the truth.
Angelo Nieves said specifics of what investigators learned from reading Anthony’s e-mail would not be released until it is disclosed in discovery if a case goes to trial.”

Meanwhile…Casey sits at home with her family in her cozy bedroom and her mother, Cindy Anthony says that Casey’s opening up, which is so heartwarming knowing that this girl has no concept of the truth, no morals, no remorse!  And the bounty hunter who is, I’m sure, hoping for a reality show says he knows who the kidnapper is and they are watching them closely!!

oooo  Maybe they should call Sylvia Browne!!  She likes watching and talking to people that aren’t there, too!!!   Sorry…

Do You Need Reading Glasses but Have No Vision Insurance?

Posted in News & PSA's at 12:35 pm by Donna

Yeah, I was there, too.  I knew that something had to be done when my arm was no longer long enough to hold things out so that my eyes could focus!  I also realized that my comprehension was slipping because, realistically, my brain was just trying to see the words in order to process them and I wasn’t allowing time for it to comprehend them, too!  Reading was no longer a pleasure.

So, one day, I was standing in a CVS waiting for a prescription to be filled and I was meandering near-by waiting for my name to be called when I saw this turnstile of reading glasses.  Being the curious one that I am, I read the instructions, stood 14 inches back from the eye chart, which is easy if they don’t have it marked on the floor because floor tiles are typically 12″, and I tried on the strength that the chart led me to and I could NOT believe the difference!!  Unbelievable!!

And just my luck, they were having a 50% off sale, which I’ve come to realize all of the pharmacies have sales on them pretty frequently.  I’ve seen them in Wal-Mart, grocery stores and even dollar stores and the styles are adorable!! 

Of course there are some people who need to see a doctor and have insurance but for those of us who don’t, this is pretty cool!  When I did have insurance, I found that many of the gimmicks to get you in for a free eye exam and sales on the frames were just that…gimmicks!  I have never walked out of an optometrist/glass shop without spending at least $300!  And I consider myself to be pretty frugal!!

This simple find has saved me a lot of money, not to mention my eyesight and equally important to me, it has brought back the joy of reading and doing jig-saw puzzles and painting!!  Awesome!!

Maybe you’re sitting out there squinting to read this or you have the text size set so large that the screen could be read across the room by a person with good vision!  Maybe you already knew this but maybe you didn’t.  If that’s the case, it’s pretty eye opening, isn’t it?  ha ha  Get it?  Eye opening? 

Alright then…I’m off to save the world!!Later!!!

Project Jason Introduces ID Kitty!

Posted in News & PSA's, Project Jason at 6:41 am by Donna

Project Jason, a non-profit organization created by Kelly Jolkowski and her family after their son Jason disappeared, creates and increases public awareness of missing people through a variety of outreach and educational activities. 
<Thank You!!>

To further their efforts, Project Jason unveiled ID Kitty in Omaha this weekend, (August 23) at the Omaha Royals game!  Hopefully, if you were at the game you got your free ID Kit(s) but if you missed it, you are not out of luck!  You can still get your free ID Kit at ID Kitty’s future appearances or through the Project Jason Website!!

I.D. Kitty will be appearing Sunday, September 21 at Project Jason’s “Miles for the Missing” fundraiser at Zorinski Lake Park, and Sunday, October 5 at the Family Safety Day, held in conjunction with the Omaha Chapter of the National Safety Council.

Since its inception in 2003, Project Jason has given out more than 13,500 I.D. Kits to assist families with safety preparation.

These free I.D. Kits are provided by Project Jason at public events, and as a free downloads in English and in Spanish from the organization website. The kit contains a list of the first steps to take in the event a loved one is missing, plus valuable information that law enforcement will need. The kit should be printed on heavier stock paper, kept in a safe place, and updated at least every 6-12 months.

The kit can be downloaded HERE.

When my daughter was young, I had her fingerprinted and ID’d every year through the daycare she attended.  Every year, she would give them a fuss and wound up red-faced, open-mouthed crying in the picture.  The daycare would ask me if I wanted them to retake the photo and I always told them that if she were lost, God forbid, that is exactly how she would look, right? 
Crying her little heart out…

A lot of people believe that it can’t happen to them.  They believe that this sort of thing only happens to other people that you hear about on the news.  It doesn’t.  It can happen to you just as easily as it has happened to the thousands of families who also once thought the same thing and are now living the incredible horror of having a missing child out there…somewhere.

We lost Christie at the Columbus Farmers Market for about 15 minutes once when she was 5!  I cried hysterically even 5 hours after we found her!!!  I cannot imagine what could have happened…but I do know how quick it happens.  John and I are very diligent parents and it still happened!!!!

The steps to prevent it are simple.  Of course, not every horror can be averted but every step helps.  And preparing for that impossible possibility can make the difference since time is of the essence when a child goes missing.  If you are prepared, you can help bring them home sooner and hopefully safe.

There are a lot of people like Kelly Jolkowski who selflessly give themselves to the cause and educate others in hopes of preventing them from having to live through what they are going through. 
It seems to me to be the least we can do to take steps to keep the number of missing loved ones down and utilize the services that are provided to us.


ID Kitty asks that you ID your family
And help keep them together!!

LeRoi Moore 1961-2008

Posted in Entertainment, News & PSA's at 7:07 am by Donna

LeRoi Moore (46) of the
Dave Matthews Band passed away on Tuesday, August 19th at the Hollywood Presbyterian Medical Center in LA, Ca.

He had just recently returned to his Los Angeles home to continue intensive therapy and rehabilitation from his ATV accident in June but complications set in on Sunday.
[See "Well Wishes to LeRoi Moore"]

 
According to People.com, the Band played on…
to a sold out crowd in LA which tells me that the boys were able to see LeRoi before he passed since they were in Los Angeles,
which makes me feel better.

We all had some bad news today,” Matthews told the sell-out crowd at the Staples Center in Los Angeles after the first song. “Our good friend LeRoi Moore passed on and gave his ghost up today and we will miss him forever.”

Fans shouted Moore’s name in tribute as the band resumed playing. Two songs later, Matthews once again made reference to Moore, saying: “It’s easier to leave than be left.”

LeRoi was the humble one of the group, wearing sunglasses on stage to battle his stage fright although in 2004 he was spotted without them for many shows.  But, the way he helped to bring the music alive was unmistakably perfect!  I adored his solo’s and the impact he made on the music!!  It won’t be the same without him.  That’s such an understatement!!!

From WeeklyDaveSpeak.com:

“LeRoi is the quiet member of the Dave Matthews Band. During band interviews he does not speak unless he is spoken to. When he does speak, he tends to be thoughtful and witty. When he is not with the band, he remains hidden somewhere in the heart of America waiting for the next gig. Interviews of LeRoi are nearly impossible to find. Even the details in his biography on DMB’s Official Website are sketchy at best.”

For the last 10+ years I have listened to the Dave Matthews Band exclusively! 
<seriousy…it drives people around me crazy!> 
I had the pleasure of seeing them at Hershey, PA and even though the vibration of the sound sent my heart into tachycardia, it was the best night of my life!  I’ve lost many people in my lifetime, being the last surviving member of the family I was born into, but I seem to mourn those who made me happy a little more than those who didn’t, family or not, duh, and the music of the Dave Matthews Band definitely makes me happy!!  LeRoi Moore left a huge footprint on this earth that will never be duplicated or surpassed!!  Thank God his live shows were recorded and I’ve got most of them!! 

My heart goes out to LeRoi’s family and friends, Dave, Stefan, Boyd and Carter.

Mail may be sent to LeRoi at the following address:  
Post Office Box 1467,
Charlottesville, VA  22902
or to fanmail@davematthewsband.com.

Last week Heaven got
Funnier with Bernie,
Cooler with Isaac,
and now Jazzier with LeRoi. 

 

 

 

Thank You, LeRoi!! 
CYa!

A statement from the DMB Crew On The Road is on the DMB Website.  It reads, in part…

“As we sat this afternoon contemplating the loss of our brother, we wondered how we could possibly do a show today. Dave put it into perspective stating, “There’s no place I’d rather be than here with you guys right now.”
“It’s safe to say we all were in love with him. It’s always easier to leave, than to be left.” -DM”

A Watering Tip for Venus Flytrap Keepers

Posted in Domestic at 1:18 pm by Donna

As you may know if you’re a regular reader of my inner thoughts, <nosey…..
I’m just kidding!>
 I started a Venus Flytrap garden a month ago and believe it or not, they’re still alive!!!


A lot of people get tripped up on the water issue with these little buggers <ha ha buggers> getting sick of that yet? because they prefer rain water but you have to make sure that whatever you’re collecting the water in is pure and on and on.

Well, you’re supposed to keep the temperature of the plants around 80-85 like they’d be in the South Carolina swamps, right?  I keep a small thermometer in the tank about an inch below the moss so that I can tell how close to put the light over it and I realized that when I watered it, the temperature was dropping and my plants didn’t look too good! <bummer>

It dawned on me that the water was cooler than the tank so I started heating it up by placing a small amount in a clean
very clean Dixie cup and placing that into a larger cup that has very warm water in it.  I let it sit for a few minutes and then water the Flytraps with the warmed up rain water and they’re not getting shocked!!

Pretty cool, huh?

News Lite…Less Filling

Posted in Entertainment at 12:11 pm by Donna

MAN!!  The news is crazy these days!  Russia is going NUTZ and I heard this morning that they’re ready to declare nuclear war on Poland after conquering Georgia! <and ya gotta love the look on people’s faces as they find out it’s a country, too!>
John Edwards cheated on his wife and had a love-child with is videographer! <Imagine that!  Didn’t see that coming!>
I just cannot get past the whole infidelity thing and thankfully neither can my husband but we’re perfectly matched and we’re not in the public eye!!  JEEZ!! What a bunch of whores!  There are circumstances where I can understand forgiveness but very, very few circumstances!

And then we have the election process in the news which is threatening to be more than exciting than even I can imagine, what with the Democratic party stumbling over themselves and all!
It’s all kind of crazy and with 80-something days to go until the election, I’m almost afraid to look!

So, with all of this insanity, I figured I’d blog about a few random light-hearted news type of things off the top of my head…so, here we go!

First and foremost…
Robert Lancaster of StopSylviaBrowne is improving every day THANK GOODNESS but it will be a slow process, but he’s doing alright! He and his wife Susan and everyone involved are in my thoughts and prayers all day long, every day!

The JREF Forum has a consolidated thread of just Susan’s updates but the original thread is still growing!  He’s got A LOT of friends!!!  I really hope that people will send their cards and let them know just how many he really does have and how much they mean to us all!!

<am I the only one who finds it strange that the GoSylviaBrowne discussion forum has been down since Robert’s been ill?> oooo

Ellen Degeneres (50) and Portia De Rossi (35) will marry on Saturday, August 16th!! CONGRATULATIONS!!!
Ellen is one of my favorite people!  I’m not very familiar with Portia <not an Ally McBeal fan> but she’s gorgeous, isn’t she?!  I wish them the best!  The more happy people, the better!  I don’t care what a person’s sexual preference is as long as they’re good people and they don’t have their sights on me as I am very much taken!

The Donald, as in Trump, has shown his humane side (or has he?) and is a shining example for the other rich folk out there.  Donald offered to buy Ed McMahon’s house and lease it back to him in order to spare the former Johnny Carson sidekick from homelessness.  Now if only Ed could get a grip on his wife’s spending!  Come on, Ed!  The sex can’t be that good!!  Let Ed be an example to all of these stars and starlets who are famous yet have no talent.
This is your future! Get a real job!!
And although The Donald looks like the hero, reports say that the house sold at half price and that this sort of dealing is considered vulture-like but there’s good and bad to everything, huh?

Jackson Browne is in the news. 
According to the Associated Press

LOS ANGELES – Jackson Browne doesn’t want John McCain running on anything fueled by his lyrics.
The singer-songwriter sued McCain and the Ohio and national Republican committees in U.S. District Court in Los Angeles on Thursday, accusing them of using his song “Running on Empty” without his permission.
The lawsuit claims the song’s use was an infringement of his copyright and will lead people to conclude he endorses McCain. The suit says Browne is a lifelong liberal who is as well-known for his music as for being “an advocate for social and environmental justice.”

Really! I loved the guy back in the 70’s but after Daryl Hannah broke up with him and I floated into the 80’s…I had no idea!! I quit listening to his CD’s because they bumbed me out!!  You’d think Jackson would be glad somebody’s keeping his name alive!  Sorry buddy!

And last but not least, Jennifer Anniston is back on the market!!  She’s one of John’s {my hubby} fav’s!  Apparently, she and John Mayer broke up although I didn’t think it was a long-term thing anyway.

Well, my bubble is empty so that’s all folks for now Peace

Sudden Change Under Eye Serum

Posted in Random Thoughts at 7:03 am by Donna

So, I’ve been dealing with small bags and light dark circles under my eyes since my heart attack.  Apparently my heart cannot oxygenate the blood like it normally would if all of it were working…go figure.  It never really bothered me until the last year or so when some guy who worked at the grocery store that I frequented kept telling me how tired I looked!! 
[See “You Look Tired” is NOT a Conversation Starter!]

This weekend I found “Sudden Change 3 Minute Under Eye Firming Serum” at the Columbus Farmers Market at a Make-up Surplus store.  A .23 fl oz bottle costs $12 but I found it for I think $2, it might have been $3.  I don’t know…I’m still trying to get over how they fit all of those words on a bottle that is so small!!! 

I decided to buy it since I’ve been curious about it for a long time.  I quit spending that kind of money on things that make claims that they can do miracles but rarely do those miracles happen!  I’ve got a linen closet full of ‘em!

So, I got home and tried it.  If I had read the information about the product, it would have been more successful from the beginning but because the store is all of the stuff that comes off of the Wal-Mart, CVS type store shelves that get packed up when new stuff arrives, it didn’t have it’s original packaging. 

Apparently, you’re not supposed to move your face for 3 minutes or until it is dry but I didn’t know that so it made more wrinkles but it did shrink the swelling!!  Now I know that you can mix it with your foundation and it will look smoother, I love it!  I’ve had a swollen pocket under my right eye for a long time now and it’s gone!! Even the next day! The product information does say not to use moisturizer before or after use but there is no way that I’m not using moisturizer so we’re going to have to compromise!!

So, my final analysis is a good one.  I think that if you play around with it and see what works best for you and as long as you don’t expect an absolute miracle, I think that you’ll be pleasantly surprised with this product.  I can also understand a .23 fl. oz. bottle going for $12 because you only use 2-3 drops per eye once or twice a day.  But, being the frugal beagle that I am, I will always suggest shopping around.

All in all, I give Sudden Change 3 Minute Under Eye Firming Serum a .  Read more about it by clicking on the link…

UPDATE:  8/13/08
This is great for those really bad days when the bags are more like luggage but after using this stuff for a few days, I don’t think that I would use it everyday.  It is meant to shrink as it dries and then when you smile it makes a lot of wrinkles.  I smile way too much for this stuff as an every day cosmetic.
