The Daily Escape:
Salt Run, St. Augustine FL – April 2024 iPhone photo by Wrongo. This is a tidal inlet fed by the Atlantic Ocean. The far shore is a protected state park and the ocean is just over the dunes in the distance.
Wrongo has been enjoying the spring weather here in Florida, the second stop on our caravan of sibling visits in the south. This view is from my sister’s home.
Many cartoons this week about OJ’s death, along with lots about Arizona’s new anti-abortion bill. Here’s the best that I found. First, a leftover about the eclipse from earlier in the week:
OJ left the building, but isn’t home yet:
OJ’s running just like back in the day:

School voucher money is shrinking public school funding:

I was astonished even 30 years ago when the prosecutor let OJ try on the gloves at all. Worse still, he wore protective plastic gloves to do so. Each winter when I get out my “good” gloves, so leather, they are tight. And that does not include having been exposed to blood or what not – meaning the gloves would have shrunk. It was an unbelievable mistake. And allowed the defense to concentrate on a simple slogan.
Sad that a man so successful and popular could not just let his wife go. He could have had lots of women and continued on as a beloved celebrity. He was a talented performer in goofy movies of the sort we would watch with my son.
He was surely guilty as sin.
