oj and oil and sports in between
the oj circus is back in town and the area around the courthouse is filled with media trucks as oj has prelim hearing. 3 of his co-defendants have cut deals and are going to testify against him. looks bad for the juice but hell, it looked bad in brentwood as well and he walked on a murder charge. i guess he is hoping that marcia clark will come over to be the prosecuting attorney again. she was so incompetant that she let a slam dunk case go awry. if they send him up this time maybe he can look for the "real killers" in the nevada joint instead of the miami golf courses. you know that almost every cop in the country is pulling for the las vegas district attorney on this one, the thing that pisses police officers off more than anything else is a murderer skating. i hope they throw the proverbial book at that smirky motherfucker. for the record, i think oj was acquited, not because of black jurors voting against the "white man" or "white girl" but because of the idiotic case the prosecution put on and detective furman's inability to tell the truth and then get caught at it. his "no i have never called a black man a niggar" statement was just unbelievable even before they produced his writings to show he used it quite frequently. what he should have said is "when i arrest a black thug, robber, murderer or rapist i call him a niggar motherfucker. when i arrest a hispanic thug, robber, murderer or rapist i call him a spic motherfucker and when i arrest a white thug, robber, murderer or rapist i call him a honky, redneck motherfucker. all law abiding citizens i call 'sir'" that answer would have been factual and accepted as such by the jury. the prosecuters, marcia and chris were so bad, so stupid, so unprepared, so scattered in their presentations that the jury was confused and when confused about the prosecution case, you have to, in good faith, vote for the defense. i would have been in the position of knowing this motherfucker was guilty but also knowing that the prosecution did not prove their case. he did it. not a doubt in my mind and i watched the whole trial. when the jury went out, i knew they were going to acquit. we shall see this time.
the euro is now trading at 1.47 against the american dollar, when bush came in the euro was in the 80 cent range. why does this matter? well, if the europeans and the russians were to get together and have a euro/rubel benchmark for oil instead of pegging it to the american dollar our currency would crash sending us into a deep recession if not a depression. all around the world, governments are looking for ways to stop american emperialism and military adventurism and striking at our economic base is the most logical and effective way to do it. because of bush/cheney we have many more enemies than we have and, my friends, billions of people would like to see us fall. the times they are achanging.
saw the 07/08 edition of UNLV basketball this tues when we played an exhibition game against washburn. we won big but that means nothing, the icabods are not big time basketball. that being said, unlv will have a good team this year and win maybe 20-22 games and go to the ncaa's as a 13-15 seed BUT next year, we have the makings of a GREAT team which could put the rebels back on the national basketball map. we lose two starters and have a 7 footer who had to redshirt this year and already have some good freshman players and more coming in. on the subject of sports, my predication of oklahoma vs. lsu for national championship game is back in play. i would not be surprised if ohio state were to lose a game and if they do, lsu will move back into number one and if in the big 12 championship game oklahoma beats kansas they will move up to number two. both of those schools have played a much tougher schedule than ohio state.
watch for this kid rene rogouget (sp--need to look it up) from unlv, he is going to be a very valuable kid coming off the bench this year and starting next year. (i do like college basketball! and think the ncaa tournament is, if not the very best sporting event in the world, at least in the top three. you have to give credence to world cup soccor because it involves so many countries and teams and it takes so long to decide the championship. of course, the summer olympics have to have a shot as well.)
gas is now over 3.00 per gallon. when bush took office: 1.46 per gallon. i put that up every couple of weeks or so just to be sure that it is seen by as many people as possible. you know what the real bitch is? we are fighting a war for oil and, even if we were to pacify iraq, which we won't, but if we did, we still would not get the iraqi oil because the "government" in iraq is controlled by shiites and they are much more aliegned with iran than with any western government so they will follow iran's lead on whom to ship to and at what cost. you think it is expensive now, .....well, the times they are achanging.
curds in the whey. seems like miss muffit wasn't the only one with this problem. only the spelling is different.
got to go, they are still working on my house.
