Why My Brain May Explode...
why are so many news outlets giving oj simpson and his new book "if i did it" the time of day? but you know, i think we had already established that he has issues. but why is everyone entertaining him? why is he on every cable channel's big news stories? why is his book selling so well when apparently we are all so outraged? why does the publisher have to explain herself? apparently she knew that there was a world of outraged people with money they needed to donate to oj simpson's cause - if only they could find a way. but this is the way of capitalism - nothing for nothing. so go ahead oj and sell your story. we are all dying to hear the story of an innocent man telling us what he would have done - if he were guilty.

or write a poem or
go have chai with a friend.
anything...but give this machine
a penny or a penny for his
thoughts...
ah...it should read
anything but give this machine
a penn or a penny for his thoughts.
I saw a CNN poll that said about 85%+ of respondents were not interested in watching the Fox special or buying the book, yet I bet half of them at least will do it anyway. It's like a train wreck -- dumb, morbid, curiosity.
Nothing for nothing- well said!
You can feel this in Greece as well...
i hear you sophie, even if it's a bad poem, it's better than this. unless the poem is called "if i did it" and written by an ojs...
yep reb, i have found new channels because of this but you know how much i love my cnn... it brings me a lot of pain.
oh erikku, i hope those polled were being serious because the book AND the televised interview have been pulled - though i am sure there will be a dvd soon enough. morbid facsination... yeah.
dodos, i think it is felt everywhere. at least i hope so.
