OJ Simpson, the former football great who murdered former Dana Hills High School homecoming queen Nicole Brown Simpson and her pal Ronald Goldman, was sentenced to 15 years in prison today. His sentence, technically, stems from a recent Las Vegas hotel armed robbery and kidnapping.

SFist's dear neighbor's, Wired, came across this racially explosive internet meme on the Daily Kos, which is set to have Democrats duking it out online. According to the Daily Kos, someone in the Clinton campaign took Obama's image from this video and darkened (a la OJ Simpson gracing the covers of Time and Newsweek) for this commercial. According to the Kos:

Described as a wiki of stupidheads, jerks, and self-awareness-free men, the Wikipedia parody site lists notable dickslices such as homecoming queen murderer O.J. Simpson; sexist boor Donald Trump; the Gisele Bundchen-impaling Tom Brady; that fat Arctic bastard Santa Claus (mean!); and Marin County's very own Harvey Milk impersonator, Sean Penn. The nerve.

Update: Sen. Barack Obama's campaign office in Rochester and John Edwards' offices have also been evacuated. Our sister site, Bostonist is live-blogging the situation right now. Apparently, a man wants to "speak to Hillary Clinton. He has two hostages (maybe more) and [allegedly has] a bomb strapped to his chest ... police have asked the media not to take live shots of the building." Yikes. A little bit of breaking news well outside of...

All of you YouTube addicts out there are probably familiar with many of the "absoludicrous"* found video clips from Nick Prueher and Joe Pickett's touring Found Footage Festival (*Mr. T makes an appearance in the "Celebrities Who Teach" series). The critically-acclaimed event will be in San Francisco tonight and tomorrow night at the Roxie Red Vic at 7:15 p.m. and 9:15 p.m. and this Sunday at the Parkway in Oakland for a 5 p.m. matinee. Every screening features Nick and Joe's live, in-person commentary. If you can't make it to the live show, you have the option to buy the Found Footage Festival Vol. 2 DVD, which features Nick and Joe's commentary and the live audience laugh track from a screening at The Heights Theater in Minnesota. Note: This event has very adult content. There is a clip at the end that will shock, titillate, and stun -- shall we say, "flopping, full frontal?"

an interactive talk show that's being compared to This American Life in real-time.

(8pm)

We're off to the Off market Theater (965 Mission Street) for the final performance of local bad boy Harmon Leon's .

the Susan Polk trial.

Being a relatively recent gratuate to cable from rabbit ears, we're not sure how that whole In Demand thing works, but we've been tempted to figure it out ever since we heard about Friend of SFist Harmon Leon's stint on "Juiced", a hidden camera prank show starring OJ Simpson.

>For those who haven't been following it, there's a real humdinger of a scandal brewing in LA involving Anthony Pellicano, Private Dick to the stars. Pellicano is in a wee little trouble with the Feds for wiretapping as well as various other shady activities that are considered illegal by the government unless done by the government, all in the name of his high-powered clients. How much fun is this case? The whole thing started because of shenanigans in a case involving Steven Seagal and the mafia. Other clients he's rumored to have had include everyone from Tom Cruise to Sylvester Stallone to Michael Jackson to O.J. Simpson to Hillary Clinton. And it just got director John McTiernan charged for lying to the Feds. So what does this have to do with the price of the Tea at Coffee Tea & Spice on Haight? Turns out one of his clients was rumored to be one Barry Lamar Bonds.

Fool them once, shame on you; fool them twice -- well, the second time Alameda resident Marc Marmor's house caught on fire, the suspicious fire department finally figured out he'd accidentally started both blazes by smoking in bed. The first fire, two days before Christmas, severely damaged the home and neighboring properties and Marmor was told the house was uninhabitable. Nevertheless, about six weeks later, Marmor snuck back into the damaged house and again accidentally fell asleep with a lit cigarette on a twin mattress on the floor of the basement. The house is now completely destroyed. A few days ago, an SF Airporter shuttle with five people on it hit someone in an accident on 280 North, by the Mariposa exit. The driver originally claimed a homeless woman had wandered in front of the van. Then, when people started noticing that one of his passengers was missing, he revised his story that maybe someone had fallen out of the van when he swerved to avoid a car. Then, when other passengers started giving statements to the police and it became apparent that no one had seen a car in the other lane, people are now concluding maybe the driver fell asleep at the wheel. Today's news: the driver, Melvin Simpson, is O.J. Simpson's older brother. Whaa? Who even knew O.J. Simpson still had relatives in the Bay Area? And the South Bay cops are looking for a white man in his late 20s who's robbed 12 Subways, Quiznos, or Baskin Robbinses between the hours of 7:30 and 9 p.m. in San Jose, Los Gatos, Mountain View, Santa Clara, and Sunnyvale. He always buys something an hour before robbing the place, and is always wearing a black or gray hoodie, gray beanie cap, and black pants. We hope it's a pair of those really big before- pants, like Jared's.
