Production / uplink trucks lined up 3 blocks long to
cover the "festivities", and various reporters and
hangers-on in front of the courthouse. This is a much smaller

bothered to come out.
No, Jackson Pollock is not alive and well and living in
Tallahassee, these are just some of the cables that are

Pictures taken Sat, Nov. 18, 2000. BTW, if anybody wants to

reading "Airframe" by Michael Crighton and seeing "Ace in the

Kirk Douglas).
