Illegal Murder

Grrrrrr.

Mood destroyer 101

Now that I have a new shiny Sony Bravia Cuisinart flat panel HD telebision, MoSup and I have gone back using NetFlix, and watching movies for the pure visual  delight of it all, if nothing else ... and we don't even have a HD player yet (bought one yesterday from WOOT).  This weekend we watched WAITRESS, which I thought I'd discovered, but it turns out everyone we know has seen it.  Yes, it qualifies as a chick flick, but one with gonads.  I truly loved it, so did MoSup.  But that's not what I wanted to tell you, which you prolly already know.  At the end of the film was a "Dedicated to Adrienne Shelly" caption.  Adrienne Shelly wrote the script, directed the movie, and acted the role of one of the waitresses.  I of course Googled her to find this - ADRIENNE SHELLY'S KILLER PLEADS GUILTY.  After the movie was finished, but before it was released, Adrienne was strangled to death by an illegal immigrant when she caught him burgling her.  This was in Manhattan.  Here's what knocked me out. “ In his courtroom confession, Diego Pillco, an illegal immigrant from Ecuador, recounted how he choked the wife and mother with a sheet, strung her body up from a shower rod and fled -- hoping to make the murder look like a suicide. Pillco, 20, will get 25 years in prison -- almost certainly followed by deportation -- as a result of today's Manhattan Supreme Court guilty plea to first degree manslaughter. ” The country is ready for a Schlong Regency, click-click.
