I'm the guy who does the voice of God on The Simpsons.

Seriously, though, this will never be proven. It's just too long ago. And I should know, because I am the guy who does the voice of God on The Simpsons.

Official: Jack the Ripper identified
By Stewart Tendler

Scotland Yard has taken possession of a policeman?s memoirs which names the serial killer

PRIVATE handwritten notes by the man who led the hunt for Jack the Ripper naming the chief suspect were given to Scotland Yard?s Black Museum yesterday.

Chief Inspector Donald Swanson kept quiet for years but in retirement, frustrated that the murderer had escaped justice, could not resist scribbling notes in the margin of his boss?s memoirs, naming the man that they both believed had become the world?s most famous serial killer.

Where is the rest of the fscking story???

I'd need to see some hard evidence before I believe it. WHy would a Jewish killer throw anti-semitic remarks at a potentail witness? And what about the phrase "The Juwes are the men that will not be blamed for nothing" found over the clothes of one of the victims?

These notes have been known about for many years. I remember seeing a documentary years ago that suggested that Kosminski was likely Jack the Ripper, based largely on these same notes.

Had the title read, "***Official****: Jack the Ripper identified ***Confirmed***" I think I would have taken it seriously.


By the way... I'm Emmitt Smith.
