O.J. Simpson Arrested

Who could have imagined that a felon who was not in prison would go out and commit felonies? I never saw that coming.

It really is bad timing for Mr. Simpson. This week saw the publication of his book, "If" I Did It. He gets no money for it as the rights were awarded to the families of his victims, but they get the free publicity of his name being in the news again.

This foul-tempered, violent man has yet again run afoul of the law although, thankfully, without a slow speed chase in a white Bronco this time.

Hopefully he will be put away this time and for a long, long time. I read today that the citizens of Las Vegas are conservative (who would have thought?) and are likely to put him away for the maximum amount of time. Somehow I doubt that being a world famous athlete will be to his advantage this time around.

I pray for his children, this must be yet more salt in the wound.

Who'd a thunk it? I hear Rodney King is stoney broke too.

My husband thought that maybe his guilty conscience was causing him to lash out, but then he heard an entertainment reporter on the local radio station who mentioned he had known OJ years before the murders and said he was a thug, maybe a charismatic thug, but it was common knowledge that OJ was a thug. Hopefully, he will be behind bars and the world will be a safer place.
