If prior then why didn't he write the ransom note out beforehand?

Last night I suggested that he did write out a rough draft ransom note before he even entered the house. Kinda like a "cheat sheet", all he needed to do was find the paper and pen in the house, pull out his cheat sheet ransom note, and jot it down on the paper in the home with the felt tip marker found in the home, fold up his cheat sheet ransom note and put it back in his pocket.

This would explain why it was so long and it would not have taken him very long to copy down what he had already thought out and written down on his "cheat sheet" ransom note. To me the ransom note is a ruse and was left only to leave a cryptic message to John Ramsey. The ransom note was left so he could get personal with John Ramsey in his own cryptic way, killing his daughter was not enough for this perp.

I believe the first note he started in the house started with. Mr & Mrs. Ramsey, - maybe that is the way he originally had it on his cheat sheet, but he changed his mind and just went with Mr. Ramsey, which is odd and shows he wanted his cryptic message ransom note to only be addressed to John Ramsey.

Notice that he was willing to comminicate with Mrs. Ramsey but not Mr. Ramsey. This tie might go way back. The name JOHN RAMSEY name is what tickles his brain...not Jonbenet...not Patricia. Why doesn't he refer to her as Mrs. Ramsey??

You mean...gasp...Patsy didn't write the ransom note to cover for Burke? Or herself? Or her husband?

Shazzam!!
(Only kidding you.)

For the life of me I can't see how Patsy could have ever written that schlock. It was full of veiled and not so veiled references to movie lines and to previous child killings. She asks for 118,000 dollars, the bonus amt her husband would get that year?? Yet smart people think that points to her. Incredible. Of course it points AWAY from her.

And, since she's sooooo religious, she signs it S.B.T.C. which has to mean, SAVED BY THE CROSS?? Incredible.

I could go on but I won't inflict more on you, stlnative,

Give me a break, everyone who says Patsy did this. Please, please, I can't stand it!!

BTW, Sacajaweau thinks the time frame he wrote for them to wait for his call meant something...it gave him the lead time to get away while everyone waited for the call. Wondering about that as a possibility...
