Cutts jury ... day two ... all quiet ...

It's been a morning of silence ... the media spending its time avoiding boredom.

We've shared stories of the business, talked about last night's debate for hours, compared notes on the old "Electric Company" show from PBS, and watched SNL sketches on our laptops.

That's what WE are doing ..

What the jury is doing, we just don't know yet. No word from anyone. No questions to the judge. No sounds whatsoever. It's really not much of a surprise. Jurors weren't in a hurry during the trial phase, so why should we expect anything different?

At lunch today, Prosecutor Dennis Barr was seated at a table at the same restaurant that a lot of the media frequented. Around 12:30, a national cable news network began playing video of the Cutts trial as a "Death Penalty Watch" banner was on the screen. It was odd to watch Barr's face as he was watching the national news coverage. Here's little ol' Canton .. right on the national stage.

The wait continues .. Eric
