What goes around comes around....
An incredible career...now almost totally forgotten...
Incredibly THIRTEEN YEARS TO THE DAY, from his acquittal in the murder of his wife Nicole and her friend Ronald Goldman, OJ Simpson was found guilty on 12 charges of armed robbery, conspiracy to kidnap and assault with a deadly weapon.
The armed robbery charges carry a mandatory jail sentence and the kidnapping charge carries a possible term of life imprisonment.
If THAT is not a cosmic F-U to OJ Simpson, I do not know what is...!!!!!!

Congrats to Travis' team, the Los Angeles Dodgers, on their advancing to the NL Championship. The will face the Phillies from Philadelphia.

My Yankees were up 3-0 against the Red Sux in 2004 in the AL Championship and two players helped with the most incredible comeback in baseball history. Manny Ramirez went 6-18 in the last four games and the winning pitcher for the Sux in game 7 was Derek Lowe.
The manager of the Yankees, was of course, Joe Torre. Torre is now the manager of the Dodgers. Manny Ramirez was traded to the Dodgers on July 31st and since then he hit .362, with 17 HRs, 52 RBIs and 39 runs scored, certainly assisting them in their quest for a title.
When he came over, the Dodger's were 2 games behind the Arizona Diamondbacks. They won the division with a 2 game lead over the Diamondbacks. Not the only reason, but a big part of their win.
Derek Lowe won 14 games this year with a stellar 3.24 ERA and won game one of the series against the Cubs to help put the Dodgers in the Championship game.

Had a beautiful weekend her in Memphis. Watched some baseball all three days, Peter's team lost in the semi-final game on a few real questionable calls...but that is sports and you suck it up and come back next time.
The weather was absolutely gorgeous, bright sunny days with temps in the low 80's. Just have to love it....well at least I do...

Was working with my iTunes and with a music list I had from the years I was a DJ and combining them to build a full data base. I went to do some transferring of cassettes and found my cassette deck is on the fritz. It has been a long while since I actually used it. Might have to buy a new one to transfer all the cassettes I have.
While a wedding DJ, I put my music on cassettes (this was just before CDs became popular), because many halls have stages which tend to shimmy and shake and it made it tough to use vinyl. Mostly I used 45's but did bring along compilation albums. So I have many cassette tapes to transfer over, including one I really want to get done.
It is a concert by Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band recorded live at the Bottom Line in NYC from 1975!
Well, there is also the tape of the Grateful Dead from the Englishtown Raceway concert that I attended on September 3rd, 1977 that I also would really like to have digitized.
Well, there are also a few tapes back from when I was doing Radio in Rochester and with the Kaleidoscope Network when I was doing shows that ran on stations around the country. The one I have from that time, strangely enough, Dad Vince had and he duped it for me. Not sure how he ended up with it and I didn't have one!?!
So...have to look into a cassette deck....sheesh
