Oswald in the doorway: the blog of the Oswald Innocence Campaign, by Ralph Cinque

Backes: look and learn:

She leans forward and away from him momentarily. That's what I'm talking about. I call it a "duck." If you don't like that expression, you can call it something else, but it is what it is.

And no, Backes. It is not customary to speak of the right and left sides of cars.  We speak of the driver side and the passenger side. It's been that way ever since I started driving when I was 16. And even if you speak of the passenger side as being the right side, it's because the passenger sitting on that side is on the right side of the car from his perspective. There are utility vehicles which have a rear passenger compartment with a bench that faces backward, such that someone sitting there is oriented opposite to the other passengers. So, what side of the car is that person sitting on, and what is the best and clearest way to communicate it? Why mess with right and left?  You would just say he's sitting on the driver side or the passenger side.   

Look at this photo:

When looking at a photo like this there is an overwhelming drive to relate "right" and "left" to the perspective of the photographer, which is to say, from the perspective of the picture itself, such as the right side of the picture is right, and the left side of the picture is left. And in that sense, all three motorcycle cops are on the right: the right side of the picture. THE PICTURE, BACKES! Get it? So, in that context, I was not going to say that Cheyney is on the right in contrast to Hargis and Martin who aren't on the right. I would rather say that Cheyney is on the north side of Elm Street and the other two are on the south side. Now, if you have a problem with that it's just because you're a God-damn asshole. Why would you even want to make a fuss about a thing like this? Even if you don't particularly like my way of putting it, IT ISN'T WRONG. It isn't incorrect to distinguish the sides of Elm street as north and south. So, why do battle over it? 

You're such an idiot, Backes. So help me, I don't know how you hold a job at all.
