I never understood all the attention OJ Simpson has received about his book "If I Did It: Confessions of the Killer". It has become a New York Times best-seller. You would think that a fairly obvious motive and collected crime scene evidence would have convicted OJ but the Justice System is not perfect. In this day and age describing how one committed a crime is bringing in big dollars. I have no intention of ever reading OJ’s book. Better your money and time than mine.
Now Senator Ted Kennedy wants to cash in on this trend and write a similar book. The publisher of Sen. Ted Kennedy's autobiography is willing to advance him $8.5 million for the Senator to write candid memoirs about his life and his Chappaquiddick episode.

I really wonder if the old senator could even remember all memories of his life after so many years of alcoholism. I certainly hope for his sake that he employees an Hollywood actor like Charles Heston to speak for him on the audio book version. I enjoy Charles Heston’s voice. I don’t think anyone would enjoy listening to drunken slur from Senator Kennedy.
