13 Years to the Day...

So 13 years to the day after he was acquitted of the murders of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman, the jury in the robbery/kidnapping case deliberated for 13 hours and came back with a guilty verdict for OJ. Now OJ might spend the rest of his life behind bars.

Do I think he should spend the rest of his life in prison? Of course. However, if it is the current 12 crimes that he was convicted of that we're talking about...I have to reluctantly say no.

I don't know if OJ is incredibly stupid or just obnoxiously arrogant. Maybe it's both. He got away with a double murder, so why wouldn't he think that it would be fine to gather up his thugs and go manhandle these sports junk dealers? He didn't bank on them reporting it to the police I guess.

The thing is, I guess I just don't think what he did this time is bad enough to warrant a life sentence. It wasn't nice and it certainly was criminal, but if the judge (who btw seems to hate OJ) is fair about it, I really don't think that he's going to get life or anything like it.

I guess we'll have to wait and see. I'm glad he didn't get off scott free this time, but if the punishment fits these particular crimes, I think it's just wishful thinking that he'll be a very old man and still be in jail.

Kid Injured while Car Surfing - Mom of the Year Driving

A 10-year-old boy in Utah was injured and had to be flown to the hospital after an accident. The accident happened while his mom was driving her vehicle and he was standing outside on the running board and holding onto the side-view mirror.

The mom told police that she lets her kids do this often and never thought that an accident like this would happen. She has an 8-year-old daughter that was also allowed to car surf on the outside of the vehicle.

DUH.

Here's the kicker.. she says that she was going under the speed limit when it happened. Oh, I guess that makes it okay then. She was doing laps around the trailer park at (she says) approximately 5 miles per hour with the kids hanging onto the outside of the car.

Nice mom.

When the kid fell off the car, this mother of the year didn't even notice. She said she didn't know it happened until she got out of the car and found him laying face down on the pavement.

It's Tough Being a Bus Driver...

Oh those wacky Canadians

In Edmonton a bus driver was attacked by a would-be passenger who had missed the bus.

The attacker apparently arrived at the bus stop a moment or so too late and decided to chase the bus down while banging on its windows. The driver stopped and let the man on, but told him that it was unsafe to chase a bus like that and that it might have just been better to wait for the next one.

Well, the guy apparently took offense at the driver's comment and kicked him in the groin. Somehow the driver was able to get him off the bus after being kicked and closed the bus doors.

After kicking the bus door the attacker got away without being apprehended and police are still looking for him.

So you see, with the elements of Canadian people and a groin kick in this story, I just found it irresistible.

Always ALWAYS Check Your Cords...

Especially before watching porn at school. ESPECIALLY if you are the teacher.

A high school photography teacher in Phoenix, Arizona has been put on administrative leave while a criminal investigation into an extremely embarrassing incident is conducted.

Here's what went down:

The teacher assigned half the class to grab their cameras and go take some pictures, while approximately 13 of the teens remained in the classroom to work on a project.

While the kids were occupied, the teacher kicked back to watch some bondage porn videos. One major problem with this, other than the obvious, was that he had forgotten that he had plugged his laptop in to the overhead projector earlier.

So the students viewed six bondage sex videos while the teacher sat, totally engrossed with his laptop. Some of the students said they tried to signal the teacher and even made comments like "Wow.. what is that?" but he was too into the porn to realize what was happening.

Arcadia High School is now reportedly looking for a qualified photography teacher.

Cat Hitches a 75 Mile Ride

In Arizona, Bella the cat recently took a trip. Bella stowed away in a spare tire under her owner's vehicle and went on a 75 mile ride.

When the guy stopped his truck, he heard a cat crying and realized that it was Bella. When she came out from under the truck she was hysterical, dehydrated and shaky but has since recovered nicely.

The man had to cancel his meetings for the day to take her home, and now checks under his truck before going anywhere.

Man Swears to God, Is Promptly Struck by Lightning

A Chinese man who was bold enough to swear to God that he did not owe a debt was struck by lightning a minute later.

The man has reportedly borrowed about $80 from his neighbor three years ago. Of course he never paid it back and denied ever borrowing it.

Finally, the neighbor told him that if he dared to swear to God that he did not owe the money, the debt would be cleared. So right there, in front of a crowd of neighbors, the man swore to God that he did not owe the money.

About a minute later he was struck down by lightning. He did survive and is expected to make a full recovery. Hope he learned his lesson though!

Wonder if he will now pay his neighbor the money that he so obviously owes?
