Good Evening Everyone! Nice to see so many old friends. Still raining, had a good deluge earlier. But I got some mowing in.
This afternoon I took some boxes of books to a summer day camp I know [migrant, farmworker, parents not speaking english as a first language] And the kids got to pick out three books each. [used books though some looked 'like new']. They had a good time and now have something to take home.
The trouble with the grade/test scores, is that in Florida, in the past they didn’t ’follow’ the grades. i.e. A teacher was expected to do as well as everyone else as the ’starting place’ [previous years FCAT] of the students wasn’t ’followed’. As I understand it speaking to teachers now, that has been changed. Though I have no idea how any teacher can manage with a class of kids say with past records of two years behind to one year ahead…
I will now try the SHUSH feature. again
continued...
I have no intention of starting a discussion about Casey Anthony’s guilt levels, etc. Not a worthy area of contemplation considering Caylee’s death.
Rather, there was an article in the paper about Casey’s financial ’future gains’ and how she could make money.
Don’t believe there was anything in the article about pending lawsuits — I know the woman she accussed of having/taking/kidnapping Caylee has a lawsuit going.
And the state wants to make her pay at least part of the costs of the police investigation, etc.
So. Using the SHUSH feature to answer these considerations.
How much of a negative impact would a television news station receive for ’paying’ her for an interview?
How much negative impact would a publishing house recieve for ’paying’ her to tell her story?
How much would they have to pay a ghost writer to talk to her and write the book?
Would the ghost writer insist that his/her name never be revealed? Or would they want it on the cover of the book?
How many lawsuits would other people begin after the book is published?
How much might a publisher be liable for a known, convicted [misdemenor] liar be for not double checking what they published? {I am thinking mostly in remembering that MILLION PIECES fiasco and them having to buy back books].
How much money might the publisher ’lose’ in advances? Or not lose?
How many copies will be printed?
How many sold?
Would you pick up one at a library sale?
Are we talking best seller list?
How much would Casey Anthony’s signature in one of ’her’ books be worth?
How soon after her ’book’ is published will she write another ’really true this time’ book?
How soon will she appear in playboy or some other magazine as a centerfold?
And, as I have read and heard discussed, how soon will she appear in an X rated movie?
As you see, most of the above is BOOK RELATED. She is going to be freed in a week, plenty of time for her to have advanced payments lined up to provide for her upkeep. Don’t see her getting a job at Universal.
End of attempt. Probably answers should be SHUSH too.
