    Which juror number does Mr. Nakai play in this production of "Twelve Angry Men"? The original black and white version directed by the great Sidney Lumet and with Henry Fonda as Juror #8, is such a powerful film. BTW, you never see the defendant as all of the action takes…

    Once again, President Obama has demonstrated to the world what a truly classy gentleman his mother and grandmother raised him to be. Both, I'm sure, are very proud of him. Mr. Obama is showing deep respect, which is not to be confused with showing deference, by bowing to the emperor…

    This is such a tragic story. I pray that the Yokota family finds the peace they have so desperately been seeking these past 32 years. Go to this Japanese government's Public Realtions Office link to view an excellent animation video telling Megumi's sad story. Scroll down to the bottom right…

    My money is on Nick Watney, local favorite from Dixon, California. He's definitely a rising star on the PGA tour plus an extremely nice young man. Go Nick!

    Re: the alternative spelling of basterds in the new Tarantino movie: According to Wikipedia, "To date, there has been little explanation of the title spelling (the correct spelling would be "Inglorious Bastards"). When asked, Tarantino would not explain the u in Inglourious and said, "But the 'Basterds'? That's just the…

    @DickMorris: Remember the second greatest commandment? To love your neighbor as you love yourself. How truly sad to be so very closed minded. If you don't mind, I'll be praying for you. May Christ be with you always.

    @goddifist: Exactly what is "so wrong" with being a transexual beauty pagent winner?
