<p>On a serious note, I watched Monica Lewinsky's TED talk this morning on information, cyberbullying, humiliation etc. I think this should be a must watch for anybody who uses social networking, chat sites etc. Really quite thought provoking. 23 minutes, but I assure you, it's well worth it.</p>

I guess someone had to give it a fancy name. <br>
I call it "thinks they're shit hot but are really just a warm fart" -

I always thought it was "You think you're shit hot, but you're not even a cold fart warmed up" -

<p>This case is a bit odd , no charges have been laid yet as the kidnapper said that the victim merely didnt want to be with her parents. Considering they named her "LA" I can't say I blame her.</p> -

<p>For sure. I wouldn't have thought the human body could deal with that much red bull in a day let alone long term.</p>
