                On the reading front, I just finished plowing through William C. Dear's O.J.

It is an at times preposterous read, as the details are laid out in a redundant fashion chapter after chapter. I also call into question some events the author claims to have witnessed and experienced, along with the "testimony" of some of his so-called "experts", whose opinions come from years and geographical locations away from the event. Nonetheless, a captivating and compelling way in which to spend several hours contemplating the dire travesties mob-mentality thinking and the rush to judgement fueled by it could bring about.

                  It sounds really interesting. Wasn't it difficult to read it knowing that who ever of the two of them did it, was free?
                  I love true crime. One of the best books I have read is The stranger beside me by Ann Rule. It's mindblowing. She was a co-worker of Ted Bundy and also a true-crime writer.

                    Can't go wrong with Henry Miller, though.
                    BTW, to have read close to half of Brothers Karamazov is a great accomplishment, that book is dense and difficult. Just keep reading, you'll get to the end :-)

                      I'll admit, marriage is way harder than any job I've ever worked, but having made it to the 10 year mark through many peaks and low fuckin' valleys, I'd like to think my better 7/8's is gonna keep my sorry ass for the long haul at this point.

                        Ann Rule is extraordinary! Her manner of portraying events and seemingly putting the reader inside them is captivating as hell. For newcomers, check out 2007's compilation Smoke, Mirrors, and Murder. Mind-blowing stuff.

                          I have to do that. I have The want-ad killer, I just haven't gotten to it yet. I have a huge pile of books to plough through. Unfortunately there isn't one single book of Ann that is translated to swedish, and my english isn't very good. But I do what I can, I have read The stranger beside me in english, and it went well.
                          She is amazing.

                          When my dad told me that he was reading Anna Karenina really slowly so it wouldn't end, I couldn't understand. But I experienced the same thing with Ann Rule.

                            The theory that Jason Simpson is the actual murderer has been around since day 1. Makes some sense too, as he was more physically able than old, arthritic OJ ( some speculate Ron Goldman wouldve kicked his feeble ass), absolutely HATED Nicole, and was the only other person whose DNA would be that close a match to OJ's...
