Herald editor camped out at the Entwistle trial complains because when deliberations were over for the day, he had to drive home during the hailstorm:
Try sitting in a cramped court all day then driving away into traffic and some summer fury. This assignment ain't no picnic. ...
Poor Thing!
I'd bet he hasn't had such a rough day since The Great Hangnail Debacle of '06!
I love the way he couches it in terms of "the poor jurors", when you know he speaks for himself. Not that it wouldn't suck to be a juror.
wah wah wah...try being
wah wah wah...
try being mrs. entwhistle, you whiney moron.
seriously. check your head, bub.
and this isn't directed at swirly. i hit the wrong reply location, so it is threading instead of making an individual comment.
Woburn isn't the end of the world
I suggest that the reporter take a leisurely walk by Horn Pond and calm down before blogging.
I have reread the posting a couple of times
And I was wondering if he wasn't playing the violin for the jurors ... if he was, thinking of them and their situation then it is a different kind of post. but i really can't tell.
it is kind of poorly written.
that's the angle he's trying for at least
But unfortunately the attempt to spin sympathy for the jurors is lost in the "Wah, reporting on a murder case is haaaaard."
Guess he'd have rather stayed back at the office yesterday, Photoshopping cowboy hats on the heads of Menino and John Kerry for today's front page.
I would have suggested
Burlington's Millpond Reservoir. It's much closer to the Courthouse and much quieter as it's surrounded by about 300 acres of conservation land.
Not much fun
I'm sure it's not much fun there in nickel-sized hail either.
