Johnny Cochran dies of Brain Tumor

I haven't seen any stories to link to yet, but i saw it on the news tonight. The great defender is dead.

I guess OJ will have to think twice before killing anyone now that his attorney is gone.

Thank goodness we've had a bumper crop of sleazy lawyers the last couple of years. Someone will fill the vacuum.

thank you. I saw the news story at around 4am yesterday, and was a little goofy from a really, really bad night at the nuthouse. Posting it was the only way to make my intermittent evil giggles go away.

Maybe I'm too nice (no, I don't think so...) but I feel bad for the guy because he's DEAD. I have no urge to crack jokes and laugh about it, I just kind of feel bad for him, and maybe he was an asshole, but when you die, it should earn you just a little bit of respect. It must be really hard on his family to read all the jokes and nasty comments... There, I was nice today.

We're not beating the body, Stacey. Actually we're celebrating his life by imitating his humor, imitation being the sincerest form of flattery.
