I can't believe you're watching TV in Costa Rica. Shouldn't you be surfing or fishing or something?

Rain most every afternoon = time to swim, read, Sudoku or watch 10 minutes of Fox News which is about all I can handle of that bunch of idiots.

Yes, but did you see the story on the DUI in Reno who drove away with a gas pump attached to her Subie?

Oh, and hope your vacation is going great!

Great news. I hope they families can find a little closure with this.

The only one I've seen in like 7 years was stuck in a snow bank on Kings Row at the McCarran intersection for 4 days last December.

Update at 2:55 p.m. Its death for James Biela.

After deliberating for 9 hours, a Washoe County jury said Biela should be executed for killing Brianna Denison in early 2008.

After the clerk polled the jury, Judge Robert Perry said: “My heart goes out to all of the innocent people who have been touched by this tragedy.”

Perry set July 30 for sentencing on the sexual assault and kidnapping charges.

Biela sat motionless as the decision was read.

He said "I love you," to his family as he was led out of the courtroom. They said, "I love you Jimmy" back to him.

Bridgette Denison, mother of murder victim Brianna, handed out "Bring Bri Justice" buttons, and hugged the prosecutors after Biela left the courtroom.

The Denison family gathered in the hallway outside the courtroom, hugging law enforcement officers and prosecutors. Washoe County District Attorney Dick Gammick had a big smile on his face and said he was really happy about the decision.

Gammick will hold a press conference with the family at around 3:30 p.m.
