In honor of the largest diamond being found in 1905:
Do you wear any jewelry? I wear the ring my husband gave me when we are dressed up and not working. Other than that, I don't like jewelry.
Did you keep up with the OJ Simpson trial in 95? No...I was too busy working about 80 hours per week. I didn't have time for someone else's life?
What are/were your thoughts on it? I don't like our courts and legal system. It ticks me off what is allowed to go on. For my health I stay away
Awards season is upon us...
Do you watch the broadcasts? No. Once in a blue moon, I will ask my hubby to turn the volume on the TV for me(he wears wireless headphones) so I can watch what he is watching but that is rare. When he finally does turn the volume on for me I usually ask him to turn it off 5 minutes later TV bores me.

What are/were your thoughts on it? I was attending college in Gary Indiana at the time. The most lasting impression I have is how, in the student union where Black and White students routinely chatted together around the TV, on the day of the verdict, the room was sharply divided by race.
