"Assassinated" is a term used for any person in a political office.

I'm a photographer, and I often photograph babies. They get up when THEY feel like it. Try waking a sleeping baby long enough to get a picture of their eyes open, then come back and ask that question.

Yup, he's not the one that is hearing anything, it's the judge/jury. If the man is mute, then it makes more sense to wonder if it's a "hearing".

The only person who doesn't care is "I". Maybe Jimmy's corn-cracking skills important to others.

Let's think over this. He went on a teeny tiny boat for a three-hour tour with The Skipper, Gilligan, a snobby rich couple, a movie star, and a farm girl. How intelligent can the professor really be? He HAD to know that was a setup.

i could add
why when something gets sent by road it is calling 'shipping' and why when it goes by sea it is called 'CARgo'?
or why does a dog growl when it is angry and wag its tail when it is happy whereas a cat growls when it is happy and wags it tail when it is angry? (Lewis Carrol for that one!)
or local authorities cut the bin collections from once a week to once a fortnight THEN they change the bins to a smaller size! d'ohhhh!
