great pic! WOW Dylan was born the day OJ was found innocent so I will never forget that day. I bet they keep them in the courthouse that late JUST SO they could say he was convicted exactly 13 yrs to the day! I have never been on a jury that deliberated past 4:30!

Shock jock Howard Stern and Beth Ostrosky married Friday night in New York City reports People.com. The ceremony, which was held at restaurant Le Cirque apparently left the guests with much to talk about, and what a guest list it was! The name-dropping guest list reportedly consisted of Joan Rivers, Barbara Walters, Billy Joel and wife Kate Lee, Jimmy Kimmel, Sarah Silverman, Robin Quivers, Kelly Ripa and husband Mark Consuelos, Chevy Chase, Robin Quivers, and Dominic Barbara. Some of the guest participated in the event as Consuelos, an ordained minister, reportedly officiated the ceremony, and Billy Joel gave a two-song performance. It is also reported that, surprisingly, the only thing raunchy about the occasion was a toast given by Chase. Barbara, a friend of Stern’s said, "Beth is the most beautiful bride I've ever seen.” She added "The vows were from each others' hearts. It was gentle and soft and beautiful. People were crying." Even Joan Rivers had nice things to say. “I danced with Howard,” she commented, “The wedding was fabulous, everyone had a great, great time.” The couple’s engagement was announced Valentine’s Day of last year on Stern’s radio show. He admitted to giving Ostrosky a 5.2 caret diamond ring and telling her "I love you. You're everything to me. I'm asking you to spend the rest of your life with me."

It's not uncommon for juries to call for dinner and continue deliberating late into the night. The Phil Spector trial comes to mind immediately, so I googled "jury deliberates late" and found all kinds of trials in which the juries did exactly as the OJ jury did. I'm sure they were more than ready to work to a conclusion and be done with this trial. They had to have been exhausted from it. I thank all juries for their service and I appreciate it when they do their duty in a timely and thoughful way, as this jury seems to have done. I think it was much better that they were able to come to a decision last night than to let it sit over the weekend and take it back up on Monday. The media hoopla can be done with, and they can have the weekend to resume their lives.

You're welcome, Bee. Boy, was I surprised when I was chosen for a federal jury re non-payment of withholding tax by a business.

Especially on a Friday night.. they can finish up and still have a weekend before going back to their normal work on Monday (assuming they work a M-F schedule. That's interesting, Pamy. My dad died the day of the low speed chase and then I did watch the whole trial and then took off on a two month road trip. I had gone to a conference up north, visited my brother and his wife, then spent a night in Placerville at friends and we knew the verdicts were being read that morning. My friend didn't want to watch but all of her employees (she owned a nursery/garden center) said if they couldn't see the verdict at work, they were staying home, so I watched the verdict with them on a little black and white tv and then took off on my trip. So I remember the day Dylan was born, too.. and a happier way to remember it.

Tyler Perry unveiled a new multimillion-dollar TV and film studio Saturday on 30 acres in southwest Atlanta. His renewed commitment to the city came after he once flirted with departing. Perry said he had considered leaving Atlanta for good after neighbors complained about noise and traffic at his old studio in a neighborhood close to downtown. "Even though it was a studio there for 15 years, there was a lot of resistance in everything I was doing," Perry said in a telephone interview with The Associated Press earlier in the week. "I was thinking about leaving at one point, but this is home for me." His new Tyler Perry Studios contains more than 200,000 square feet of studio and office space in an area that once housed Delta Air Lines' finance, reservation and computer center. It was vacant when Perry found it. The guest list included Will Smith and his wife, Jada Pinkett Smith, Oprah Winfrey, Forest Whitaker, Hank Aaron and Whitney Houston. R&B singer Mary J. Blige was to perform. Perry, 39, said the studio features five sound stages that will be named after Quincy Jones, Sidney Poitier, Ruby Dee and Cicely Tyson — with one still unnamed. He will shoot his TBS sitcoms "House of Payne" and "Meet the Browns" along with other film projects at the studio. Perry said he knew the new location would be an improvement. His old building was on property zoned commercial, but the street next to it is residential. "I knew spiritually I was in the wrong place," said Perry, whose projects include "Tyler Perry's the Family That Preys." "You can never be upset with the people who forced you into your dream or up higher," he said. "They forced me out into a higher situation. It's worked out much better for me." Perry drew criticism from the Writers Guild of America, West, after Perry fired four writers from "House of Payne" earlier in the week. A guild spokeswoman said in an e-mail Saturday that the four, along with supporters, planned to picket Sunday morning at Perry's Atlanta home.

I'm never sure if I should post Idol things here or in the Idols threads. This is a picture of Lakisha Jones and her new husband Larry Davis. They were married on Sunday. I wanted to post it here so more people would see it. What a good-looking couple! In other Idol news, Paris Bennett had her baby girl yesterday, details in the AI5 thread.

Both Holly AND Kendra have left him. Holly is dating Criss Angel, and Kendra, I forget who she's dating now. Word is on the gossip sites that Hef is close to filing for bankruptcy and so those ladies are just showing how loyal of girlfriends they were.
