I was going to put together a West Memphis 3 linkroll this weekend, but I couldn't do a better job than cleolinda who put together a very comprehensive overview of the case here.  Also, if you've heard anything about the case, you've probably heard about the celebrity supporters like Johnny Depp and Eddie Vedder.  It wasn't until this weekend that we learned who paid for a huge amount of the private investigators, DNA testing, and other big-ticket fees related to the last ten years of concentrated effort to get these three men out of prison - Peter Jackson.  That's right.  When you went to see Return of the King for the third time, you were helping get these innocent men free.


To switch gears completely, an icon meme!



1. Reply to this post with "UNICORNS", and I will pick five of your icons.
2. Make a post (including the meme info) and talk about the icons I chose.
3. Other people can then comment to you and make their own posts.
4. This will create a never-ending cycle of icon glee.



naushika picked the following:



- It's Jayne from Firefly!  I love his "disguise."  Could he draw any more attention to himself? ♥

- The icon that lives in my heart November - March, aka college basketball season.

- HAHAHA I love this icon.  I saved it years ago from Fandom Wank, have no idea who made it.

- It's Tron!  I cropped a publicity still, nothing fancy.  I didn't even do the texture.  *pets BB BB*

- Lord, this set of icons.  I made them from the Babylon 5 S3 opening credits, which meant I had to clone stamp off everyone's names from their faces.  Luckily Mira's name was just on her hair, so that was easy.



ghanimasun chose:



- Picard!  This isn't a publicity still; he just looks that heroic.

- The Stupendous Yappi!  From one of the greatest episodes of TV ever, "Clyde Bruckman's Final Repose."  Scully's faaaace.

- Shoshanna!  Inglourious Basterds 4evr.

- John Sheridan!  Looking v. noble and handsome.  *pets BB BB*

- I forget his character's name!  From Garth Marenghi's Darkplace, with Richard Ayoade and Matt Berry.  If you like absurdist British comedy, you have to watch this show.  (I think it's all up on YouTube.)



ETA: Is anyone else having problems with the new rich text editor?  I've had to edit this entry like a bazillion times, it keeps switching the usernames I have linked, and one time it just erased half the entry.  I am not pleased.
