free wight


free wight cell xxx xxx-xxxx

Wow, a whole island, for free? Don’t mind if I do. Are you sure that Queen Elizabatty won’t mind? No, you’re right; she probably IS too busy making sure that Philip hasn’t gone off and attempted to mate with a cricket bat. Again.

Thanks, One Moving Violation!

    Is this a declaration of independence?
    is there a significance to only using lower-case?
    If we Free Wight; does this all oppression of (Isle of) Man?

    (I’m having a poor Monday, and I’m not tough enough to look up what the collective is for natives of the Isle of Wight–nor for Isle of Man, for what that is worth–the curiosity will one more annoyance in my day, though.)

    I was a free Wight in the Channel.
    I felt unfettered and alive.
    I was a unitary authority
    With the Caulkheads’ future to decide.

    I think it must be a new type of Declaration of Independence … “Free all Wight”

    Sparky will be glad to go on and on and on about it if only someone would call him.

      So every Wight needs to be freed from one cell block, but at which facility? Of what were they wrongly convicted?

    Boy, I really hope they’re talking about the island and not the other kind of Wight.

    I just couldn’t possible accept one more wight blood cell. Even if it is for free. I try to keep my leukocyte consumption to a minimum much to the chagrin of my lymphocytes who are constantly telling me to “eat more, they’re small.”

      Sparky has apparently already found a market for his donated red cells and platelets, and just wants the depleted leucocytes to go to a good home. Unfortunately they’re unlikely to live more than a few hours.

        Free the Whales! Free Tibet! Free the Leukocytes!

        *sparky didn’t specify that they should go to a good home. I don’t know if it’s because he just doesn’t care or if it’s because he figures Time will be the Great Equalizer!

      Having an excess of WBC is considered a striking diagnostic metric.

      Should one’s leukocytes resemble Wight would be a point of further medical concern, especially if there is a yacht regatta at Cowes, or the River Yar–either–is flooding, under microscopic observation). But, most NHL are characterized by unusual appearance in WBC or T-cells.

      Perhaps Spark’ imagines themselves a modern-day Frank Leukemic Wight for churning out island-themed WBC.

    The people behind the Free Fiber movement will hopefully some day achieve their objective of removing the boot of oppression from such peaceful monks. I think they’re a little too optimistic if they want to free Wight. Next thing, they’ll start working on their Free Hawaii campaign.

      There are already plenty of people already working on that, trust me. If they could ever stop fighting with each other they might actually get somewhere.

    Sparky was drunk when this was posted. He was a tighty wighty.

    Actually, a free wight is an unpaid bar bill.

      How many pounds does the Wight man owe?

        Far too many; drinking is the Wight man’s burden.

    [ot]Natives of Isle of Man are Manx.
    Natives of Wight are “caulkheads” (and lampooned by the City-folk for being from Hampshire, and country bumpkins, QED).

    Franky “Frank Lloyd” Wight, a 40 year old African-American odd jobs man and small-time con artist was arraigned at the Atlanta Municipal Court on March 3rd and charged with the murder of a local business heiress, Francis Ghery. He was convicted solely on the supposed eyewitness testimony of his friend Charlie “Ray” Earnes, a 31 year old white self-described entrepreneur, who claims Franky killed her when she walked in on him stealing her jewels from her house on Peachtree Street, on or about the morning of December 20th.

    Local media reports have frequently lambasted the state-appointed defense attorneys for ignoring Charlie’s possible connections to an organized crime syndicate that was reportedly interested in several properties owned by Ghery, and for a cross-examination that called no witnesses. Reporters have also questioned Earnes’ sworn statements, when at least one relative has indicated she often kept her jewels in the company office safe rather than at the house. Despite a positive DNA match to material found at the crime scene, three attorneys connected with the Southern Poverty Law Center have written to state officials requesting an additional trial on the basis of inadequate representation.

    Despite these apparent irregularities and maintaining his claim of innocence, Wight was sentenced to the death penalty on June 15th, 2012. Since the verdict was read, Wight has reportedly fallen into “a severe depression”, and is reportedly on suicide watch. Over the weekend, a firestorm of criticism from the public, already angry over the Trayvon Martin case, has culminated in a “free wight” movement, encouraging supporters to write their congressmen, publicize the case over social media and popular websites. Supporters have also been encouraging calls directly to Wight’s cell, in the hopes of bolstering his spirit.

      Meanwhile, defense attorney Luddy “Mies” VanDrow is pushing to have Wight moved to a maximum security cell for his own protection.

      As someone significantly over-educated in architectural history, that was funny on so many levels (too many to list).
      Only needed Corbu as the prosecutor, with, perhaps Gaudi as court reporter, and Tony Scolari as the defense counsel (arguing, Pacino-like, that the Court was out of order for not being convened in an Arcology).
