Is that the Fox and Friends clip where they try to make it sound like it was News Corp that got hacked and not the other way around? LOL. I'll have to wait until I'm home from work to watch.

i think one of the reasons for my liking of keith on a human level is how much i recognize myself when he talks about him being tough on himself about his own childhood and refuse to complain about it.

i still feel digsusted at myself whenever i catch me complaining about my faimily. and i remember having a hard time with therapy cause i still think anything that isnt down right torture isnt real abuse.

i had to be talked into the idea of mental abuse, and it still sounds weird and disrespectful towards victim of real abuse.

Mental abuse remains a difficult thing to quantify because mostly, people remain ignorant of it. But make no mistake - Mental Abuse is just as real as physical, sexual or verbal abuse. It's just that it's execution is not as tangible. It's effects though, are devastating.

I totally understand what you're getting at Andrea.

I'm thinking of making you, Rhian, Chemda, Lauren and Patrice her honorary god parents.

I'd ask Keith but I'm sure he'd just want to teach her to do a bong or whisper things like "Say Daddy has hairless balls" or something similar

That was a funny clip.

I don't think this whole thing wouldn't have blown up to be as big as it was, if that newspaper didn't hack that dead girls phone. And for Murdoch to pretend like he had no idea this was going on is ridiculous. Keith said it best he's not going to wonder where all these great headlines are coming from?

The creepy thing is there are now two whistleblowers who are dead (Sean Hoare and musician George Webley, who alleged that they were bugging the dressing rooms of celebs since 1990). Personally, I think it's a little suspicioius. And if Hugh Grant is the next one to die, then something is happening. Did you hear about his involvement in all this? His car gets a flat at the side of the road somewhere and all of a sudden a News of the World reporter pops out of nowhere to snap his picture. And he's telling Grant about how his phone is bugged. So Grant put on a recorder and went to visit the guy to dig up more dirt: http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/new...-expose-208822

And it seems a little naive to think this is the one paper of his that was doing this.
