Did anyone see the O.J. trial today?  The defense requests for jury
instructions were being ruled on by da judge, and it just so happens that
the requests are labelled D1, D2, D3,...etc.  They're on about D35 or D36
when Ito says, "This is beginning to sound like a Martin guitar catalog." 
One of the attorneys goes, Huh?", and Ito says "forget about it."  I can
just imagine Ito up late at night mulling over some ruling, and he picks
up his old Martin and strums a few Joni Mitchell tunes to ease the
pressure.  And I bet this is the first reference ever made to a Martin
guitar in a murder trial involving a famous ex-football player!

    	Not guitar humor but...
    
    	Did you hear O.J. complain about the temperature in the courtroom?
    	He said "Man, it's cold in here".  Ito says "it's fine".  O.J.
    	says, "well, I'm cold".  Ito says "I'm plenty warm".  O.J. says
    	"that's because you're wearing a robe".  Ito says "Look, I said
    	the temperature is just fine"!!
    
    	O.J. says "well then, can I at least have my gloves back"??
