Starting Gun for "Polanski Peel-Out Pool"

Hatched by Dafydd

Reuters announces that Roman Polanski was released into house arrest yesterday, December 4th, 2009.

The clock is now ticking...

We'll see who called it closest anent jumping bail.

The current pool positions stand as follows:

  • Release day: Captain Ned *
  • December 6th: GW
  • December 7th: Sachi *
  • December 10th: Mr. Michael
  • December 12th: Resolute
  • December 16th: Dafydd
  • December 25th: Freetime
  • January 1st: Ken Hahn
  • January 2nd*: Chris Hunt *

* I would say Captain Ned is already out, but we'll be generous and give him through December 5th, since Polanski might have been returned to Gstaad late in the day. We'll do the same for the two people (Chris Hunt and Sachi) who selected a relative number of days after release that (upon release) turned out to be identical to absolute dates selected by another commenter: The former each get moved one day forward.

Tick tick tick tick tick --

No, I'm out. It's one of the few times that extreme cynicism has failed me.

In 1975 I was informed 'by the government' that a new ice age was upon us and by 2010, or thereabouts, Va would have the weather of Alaska. Darned if they weren't right. It's been in the 20's and is now 30 degrees (11.30 PM) on my digital ther. How accurate they were. What's the temp in Anchorage Ak?
