for seven weeks i put it off .... all my other organizing and management tasks were flying through the air - productivity out the yin-yang as we say...

but i kept putting off this most important task ... didn't want to face it ... for seven weeks it went on the randy-to-do list at our monday morning staff meetings and while everything else got methodically checked off this one didn't ....

the greg thompson pre-execution action timeline .... these things suck ... no better way to say it ... (see yesterday's blog) - this one looked like it was going to happen, pretty much 4000 pages of documented severe mental illness and all...

so tuesday i faced the demon and put together, along with alex, a pretty darn good action plan, alex drafted a couple of letters to the editor, and we began the planning, action by action leading up to a clemency effort and ... 1:00 a.m. february 7th...

and today i spoke with another attorney assigned to his case, we shared the action plan with the legal team, and awaited a response...

and about 3 p.m. we got one ... it said, "Judge Edgar granted a stay of execution. We will get past February 7th..."

that's right - a STAY OF F___KING EXECUTION BABY!

the tennessee (legal team) magic continues ---

peace out, there's a bottle of knob creek with my name on it somewhere...
