O.J. Simpson listens as District Court Judge Jackie Glass (not in photo) reads his sentence at the Clark County Regional Justice Center in Las Vegas, NV, December 5th, 2008. Simpson and co-defendant Clarence C.J. Stewart were sentenced to at least fifteen years on twelve charges, including felony kidnapping, armed robbery and conspiracy related to a 2007 confrontation with sports memorabilia dealers in a Las Vegas hotel.
#Memories Last evening I pulled a real Stupid Human Trick. I was closing the garage door and pulled it down from the bottom as I always do but it stuck about halfway.
I reached up to grab the handle and missed. Instead my fingers went into the opening between two panels. This jogged the door enough for it to start closing again and really smashed two fingers.
I hurried to push the door back up again so I could get them out of the door, all the while saying things like Oh Darn!, Shucks!, and perhaps OUCH!.
I may have uttered (loudly) other expletives but my memory fails me.
Tracey took a few pictures to document this Stupid Human Trick. You can see two fingers are a shade of purple which are darker this morning and the finger nails are more purple too.
