Please keep giving us these ancillary observations about attire, attendees, etc. It makes the picture that more vivid.

I mean, who slips in an aside about the defendant's wife's kidney donor like that? Our Tony, that's who. Nuggets of pure gold.

Before LA Times left your mouth I said it out loud. They probably just wish this one would go away. Well, Danny probably does too if we are being honest. Glad to see Judge Olmedo keeping things on track.

Thanks for todays report Tony.

What was Masterson’s demeanor. Smug, nonchalant, fearful, anxious? I imagine the CC presidents office is all over this.

That he said "Good morning everyone!" to the prospective jurors kinda sounds like he's playing up as celebrity nice guy - i.e. smug, in charge, confident. And under his blue jacket and grey slacks, he's probably staining his Depends.

The LAT is a terrible newspaper. I am an historian and I focus on Los Angeles. Its total lack of interest in local and very important issues tells us everyday that it thinks it is too good for the city. Fun fact: the paper made a name for itself at the turn of the last century by focusing on local news when other papers focused on the global. It shies away from hard hitting coverage that offends PROPERTY holders. It is a key rag in trashing public housing in a city with a perennial housing crisis.

Do you foresee his family sitting behind him in support at some point? Is Waddam (sp? Oops, spelling not SP!) In Scientology?
