Subject: Re: oj trial



My wife, the OJ addict, was compelling me to watch reruns of the trial

last night instead of the ball game; she woke me up twice so that I could

hear Johnnie Cochran object to the prosecution lawyer, Christopher Dornan

(also African American; I think that's his name), asking the witness

whether any of the voices he heard at the murder scene sounded like a

Black person. Cochran thought that the question was improper because it

raised the issue of race. Dornan argued strenuously against. The judge

got mad at both of them. But I'm a bad witness, having just been awakened

from my OJ-induced stupor to watch.



Regards, Bill
