They're not anything like you, are they? I'm only interested in girls whose topics of conversation range beyond a disdain for animated anthropoid felines wearing light red jumpsuits.

Totally mainstream or intellilectual. ...and very strange in teir own unique ways.
In truth, I've only been to three or four shows or conventions (mainly to hang with my dellow modelers)and I've noticed some real hotties attending the shows here in town....always with their geeky boyfriends though.
I really can't imagine dating someone that could debate Romulan warp drive prior to TOS or how exactly Kahn got the entire Reliant crew off their own ship....and I don't know if I'd want to really.
Opposites attract after all.

Girls don't find M'Ress hot?
-------------------- Yes, you're despicable, and... and picable... and... and you're definitely, definitely despicable. How a person can get so despicable in one lifetime is beyond me. It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.

I believe I said back when I first heard about this that the prosecutors almost always assume the worst case scenario and try to nail the defendant with everything remotely possible. That way they can bargain down later and still call it a victory.
Business negotiations in the criminal justice system. How wonderful.

They can't prove that.
No, it's because the first charge was solicitation of a child for sexual purposes via the internet...which in MD falls under the child pornography/obscene matter rules.

There was aphone in debate about whether geeks were hot or not on some day time TV show this week. (Yes, I know, but by exams are over and I have a week to slob around. Sadly that means I am occasionally forced to watch daytime TV).
And talking of the Criminal Justice system, we no longer have a Lord Chancellor. Exiting, eh?

I know you're hurting right now, just from what you posted... I can't try to argue with what you feel about her. And it seems like the prosecutor is a real jerk. Although in his job, he may have just been trying to rattle you, try to get you to wither and break, or even maybe testing you somehow. (I don't know how much contact, if any, you'd had with him before.)
Think of it as a game of chicken. And it sounds like you won.
That's EXACTLY what he was trying to do! And when Shik didn't break, he got a plea offer...
From the sound of things, this whole situation was a SEVERELY fragged up mess from the beginning. This girl's parents have issues of their own, from what I've heard.
Still, I think we ALL have learned a lesson from this: DON'T break the rules, because it CAN come back to haunt you.

It wasn't a game of chicken and Shik didn't win, the prosecution did. They slap on every possible count so that they have the highest probability of getting something to stick. They never intend to get them all, if they did it would just be an added bonus.
