Yeh, posting about it made me get angry.

In other news about things that make me go apeshit, our local child predator pled out yesterday and got 5 years (I understand he'll be out in 2 to 3). Over a dozen children were involved, at least 6 raped, all between the ages of 11 and 13, the rest of the charges (over 30 charges originally) were child enticement and child pornography. The father who protected him and his job in the middle school remains principal.

What does Polanski really have to fear?

You need to let go of your anger. And as much of a fan as I am of drinking, I am afraid your drinking in particular will just cause the anger to tighten its grip on your psyche. This sounds completely new agey, but have you considered meditation? See if you can completely clear your mind and spend an entire hour not thinking about nasty French directors or internet chatting board debates.

But now he friends me?

How long am I entitled to hold a grudge?
Can't you just ignore the request?

On the grudge, as to the racist stuff, that's not a grudge thing. That's a disqualifying defect. As to the abuse thing, I've had drinks with a guy who punched my clock for me in high school (I mean, really tagged me with a haymaker). We laughed about it. He's a dick with rage issues, but I deserved it (shockingly, I'd run my mouth off where I shouldn't have.)

Recalling this and viewing TM's boxing photo, it just struck me. Is there any guy here who could kick GWNC's ass? Unless somebody here moonlights in MMA, she's the alpha male on the board.

I'd say your mind's made up. Decline Polanski's friend request.

(By the way, you're surprisingly up on pop culture for your age. Good for you.)

Hey Leagl...

...does this women-only Swedish lesbian town actually exist?

http://www.thelocal.se/22476/20091005/

"A pair of blonde female sentries stand guard at the unnamed town, referred to in reports as “Chako Paul City”, and men wishing to enter risk being “beaten half to death” by police."

"...many of the town’s female residents turn to homosexuality “because they could not suppress their sexual needs”, the Chinese news service Harbin News reports."

The description sounds remarkably like a fictional town in Western Liang described in Journey to the West, a 15th Century Chinese work set in the Tang period.

Have you ever seen Oz? I'm betting that neither your local child predator nor Polanski make it out of the stir alive, or, at the very least, if either does, high likelihood of colostomy bag in place of functioning anus.

Coltrane could out run her around the ring, thus avoiding any damage and bringing the fight to a functional tie......and a tie goes to the runner.....no?
