Well, mind if I blab with nothing serious going on?
Waddid you think of O.J's latest caper? Could he have locked himself up 'cause he regrets the murders and wants to be punished?! Is that theory any crazier than any other? Too bad Johnny Cochran died. Shoot, if ever OJ needed a sly, tough lawyer it's right now! Remember it's Las Vegas, so don't get too pissed if OJ wriggles out again after he gets tired of remorse.
His wife, after they divorced, tried to get even by maddening OJ by sleeping with, right under OJ's nose, the waiter, and the manager of a nearby restaurant. Who the hell was she? Well, one thing she was, guess what? stupid. She's dead isn't she? Do you resist the conclusion that deliberately enraging someone to murder you is stupid? More proof she was stupid: when a white woman marries a famous Black man, and you divorce, then sleep with two plain NOTHING white men, you're borderline mentally retarded, not just stupid. If one enters a biracial marriage one has additional responsibilities. For example, if an illegal immigrant marries a citizen, that fact had better not feature in the subsequent married life of the two, 'cause if it does there will be hell to pay.
IMO OJ's first knife murder was of the drug dealer who gave his former wife drugs.
I've read four books on the OJ Trial. The white prosecutor, a woman, during the trial, slept with the Black prosecutor in a San Francisco Hotel. Well, the trial did last a year. Ha!
OJ got off partly because the prosecution completely misunderstood the import of there being a female, Black foreman (woman) and a majority of the jury at the end almost all Black. Marcia Clark was too much of a smart ass to have read BLACK RAGE (written by two Black psychoanalysts) which posits that in Black culture women shield their men and send their females out to get the jobs available to Blacks. Those Black women weren't about to convict OJ Simpson!!
So, it took a white woman to bring OJ down, but to do so she had to forfeit her life. Yes, the whole thing was that mad.
Las Vegas convicting OJ seems, on the surface, an unlikely outcome. Personally I don't give a damn.

I don't know Barry. Maybe OJ was acquitted because the prosecution botched its case by losing critical evidence, sloppily presentation of the evidence they had, and putting Mark Furhman on the witness stand without having thoroughly checked out his background. I have my own suspicions that Mr. Simpson was indeed guilty, but the prosecution screwed up their opportunity to present evidence that was convincing beyond a reasonable doubt. Maybe they should have spent more time preparing their case and less time engaging in afternoon delight at the motel. But, this is just my opinion. As for OJ's current problems, the man is clearly an idiot. He should have enough sense not to hire thugs to hold people at gunpoint for any reason. Did it never cross his mind that if his belongings were truly stolen that he should report the theft to the police? I don't follow why one has additional responsibilities if one enters a biracial marriage. It seems to me that you always have a responsibility in a marriage to treat your partner with respect, period. I'm also not comfortable with characterizing Nicole Simpson as stupid or retarded. Once she left OJ, her life was hers to live as she pleased. Nothing that she did gave him cause to murder her. If he did murder her, then he made a choice based on his own warped rage and the blame is solely on his shoulders. Would you say that someone who purchases a luxury car and then is hijacked, was stupid to buy a car that attracts thieves? I just don't buy any sense of blaming the victim for the acts of the criminal. Just a few thoughts in response to your post. You knew that I would have an opinion. :-) Sheria
I can't comment on this one Barry. I didn't follow OJ's trial the first time, and am vaguely aware of the details of this current 'caper.' Just wanted to say hello, to see what you were up to... I see that Sheria is keeping up with you, though. I am TIRED!!! Had a good day, but I'm ready for a power nap so that I can stay up late enough so that I can sleep to a respectable time in the morning. I don't like waking up before 5:00. Maybe I'll be able to post something later. Have a good evening. bea
