I remember it well! We were motorhoming east, south of Gilroy, CA when the verdict was to be announced. We pulled over, cranked up the antenna, turned on the tv & watched in disbelief as OJ Simpson was acquited of murdering his wife, Nicole & her friend , Ronald Goldman. I took it personally and cried for the next 100 miles. Injustice for those two victims and their families. But the salt in the wound was this man's arrogance & how he manipulated the 'system'. The jury, who when presented with the truthful evidence said they would have convicted. When he was found guilty in civil court, he set about to make sure he would never pay a dime of the award to the families. I always knew he would 'get his' someday.... but probably at the Lord's judgment seat....but now we have relief here on earth! EVERYONE knows he's a murderer & arrogance won't help him much behind bars. It took 13 years, TO THE DAY, but justice reigns. Don't drop the soap, OJ.Saturday, October 4, 2008

I remember watching the verdict in my college apartment--my roommate (who is black and weird) started jumping around and clapping when it was announced. That's when I knew I wanted to move...
