7. Here's the deal. And I know this because I watched Nancy Grace on
Larry King last night:

The boat belongs to Mark Geragos. It's located on some property that he owns near the courthouse. There was allegedly (again, according to Nancy Grace), a life size dummy representing pregnant Laci, some weights, a set of pliers, and other stuff placed inside the boat. Nancy speculates that Mark Geragos may have been conducting experiments to see what would cause the boat to tip over in water.

Anyway, this was all in plain sight. The items alleged to be inside the boat were removed, and it has now become a shrine of sorts.

Doesn't Nancy Grace just make you want to shoot out your TV screen? I loathe that woman, but she is like a car accident or something - I just can't NOT watch her. She's too outrageous, especially when her nostrils get all flared and stuff.

Too much.

12. The word has not been invented that can correctly describe my level
of hatred for that woman. But watch her I must!

24. Yes.
Back when I would occasionally flip to Faux to see what drivel they happened to be spouting (don't anymore), I would see her. GAAAAH! Might be more annoying than Nancy Grace...and that's saying something.

21. IT's funny how RW'ers think she is the sexiest woman alive
I have heard several gushing over her. I never saw it (and not just because she is on Fox News) but they LOVE her.

What adds to it is that don't get that they are just being lured to watch by using failed models to read the news....or Fox News that is.

27. I believe she was the one in the Esquire parody
There was a montage of shots of her leaning down, crossing her legs, pursing her lips, and other frames that could be construed as sexy or suggestive, with the caption Fox News: Not Really News, Not Quite Porn.

11. She HAS to have the goods on Larry or someone
It's not the overplayed southern accent it that she is just flat out horrible-I mean that from a broadcasting standpoint. She can barely put a whole sentence together and when she guest hosts for Larry it is like watching 5 people talk about 8 different subjects.

22. Hopefully she is just a flash in the pan.
"She's too outrageous, especially when her nostrils get all flared and stuff."

I noticed the nostril flaring act on court tv yesterday. She stared into the camera, flared them booger pipes, and tried her hardest to punk her viewers. She seemed so sincere and full of herself. As if she would kill for her point of view.

20. That seems to me to be a slightly tasteless idea for a shrine
Kind of morbid, isn't it? I mean, my grandmother died on a sofa, but I wouldn't want to create memorial based around a couch that looked like the one on which she met her doom.

23. What if it was just a sofa similar to the one she died on?
Not that actual one?

Yes this is weird on many levels.

26. Is there ever a tasteful shrine?
The "teddy bear-ification" of America continues.
