Bad Thermostat?

This car is not being nice. First the timing thing (which I still haven't figure out) and now there's coolant leaking from the uppper rad hose. The upper hose gets hot and then leaks at the end of the hose where the thermostat housing is. Lower hose stays cold.
Symptoms of a dead thermostat?
