...and in this case, part of me wants to romp and play in the fields of paranoia along with them. But only

James "Joker" Holmes had his brief time in court, and he looked like a man
struggling to come out of a stupor.
If he truly identifies with the Joker, why didn't he come up with some suitably striking way to freak out the public? I expected to see that famous Dwight-Frye-as-Renfield grin. Instead, we got a guy who looked like he
couldn't quite recall what happened at last night's party.
Maybe he suddenly regained some vestige of sanity, and the gravity of his actions sank in. Or maybe the drugs began to wear off. Or (as some have already wondered) maybe drugs were
kicking in.
Conspiracy buffs of the world, you now have the stage. Make of this what you will.
(Oh...and you have to feel sorry for public defender Tamara Brady. She had to sit next to him.)
