Chris huhne, uk minister, defo MLc and now he may prison fir his lying cheating ways. His ex wife is smiling more than she has ever done before. Look it up, it is classic MLc. Huhne lied and kept lying about some driving penalty points for years to the only person who knew damn well he was lying. Patience does force deception to reveal itself.

This is not MLC. it is very, very sad and tragic. And it shows how someone can hide their real side. Also, it shows how little we really know about people, including famous one, and that everyone has a dark side.

"Yet as the 26-year-old prepared to answer a murder charge and apply for bail at Pretoria magistrates court on Friday morning, a picture emerged of a man with a playboy lifestyle, an intense interest in guns and a taste for living dangerously, suggesting that the world did not know Pistorius as well as it thought."

And from here:

"Beneath the glossy public facade there have been signs of a more complex side to one of the most famous athletes on Earth"

"Pistorius could be charm personified and was polite to a fault. But like most elite athletes, he also hated losing and was remorselessly driven to succeed."

"On the endless round of interviews that he undertook in the run-up to the London Games on behalf of sponsors and corporate backers that include Nike and BT, he remained engagingly upbeat and was frequently praised for shifting perceptions towards disability. But some who caught him on an off day also complained he could be arrogant and aloof."

This is so sad. Someone who should be an influence, ending up like this.

My son loves the comedy of Jeff Dunham, a ventriloquist who has several very popular puppets and is very talented. Turns out he was having an affair with a member of his staff ( 25 or so years younger than he) and divorced his wife. He is now 51 and married the ow last October. In his last routine called Minding the Monsters, he alluded to being old, referred to his xwife as the wicked witch in the wizard of oz, said she took all his money and stated that he was a "middle aged idiot." Can you say MLC perhaps? He also had two daughters at the time. Such a waste......I have a hard time enjoying his comedy now. It used to be light and sometimes naughty, but not overly so. Now its dark, kind of mean and very sexual in nature.

I just read on Yahoo that Michelle Obama said her 'getting bangs was her mid life crisis'. What a joke.If only it was so simple.No one ever takes it serious unless they are living in the midst of it.Certainly not a joke.

[LoveMeMyself]

I just read this myself.  She said she couldn't get a sports car or allowed to bungee jump so the bangs was her "midlife" crisis.  Give me a break!

SF,
I have never felt the same about Woody Allen & he's a brilliant director.  That was wrong in so many ways.  All his comedy is tainted by his statement, 'we fell in love'...

My emphasis, for the things that made me giggle the most.  Remember, this was the guy that said he was hiking but really he was on another continent having an affair down.

Mark Sanford Asked Ex-Wife, Jenny, To Run His Congressional Campaign

www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/03/03/mark-sanford-jenny-sanford_n_2804059.html

When former South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford decided to run for South Carolina's vacant congressional seat, he tapped a familiar figure to head up his campaign: his ex-wife, Jenny.

As The Hill reported in January, Mark Sanford approached his former wife late last year to see if she would run for the seat left vacant by Sen. Tim Scott (R-S.C.), whom South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley appointed to fill Jim DeMint's Senate seat.

"I told her if she had an interest in doing this that I’m out, because there’d be nothing crazier than a husband and a wife running against each other,” Sanford said. “It’d be a circus."

However, that exchange wasn't the last that the estranged couple would have about the special election. As New York Magazine reports, Sanford turned again to his former wife to see if she would join his latest political effort shortly after she decided that she wouldn't pursue a candidacy of her own:

    When he first ran for Congress in 1994, he installed Jenny as his campaign manager. He did this for reasons of economy—“You’re free,” he told her at the time—but she proved a natural at the job. She blossomed into a shrewd political strategist, running Mark’s subsequent campaigns and becoming his top adviser. Will Folks, a former Sanford press secretary, says, “There’s absolutely no way he would have ever won the congressional seat or been governor without her.”

    According to Jenny, she had already told Mark she would be taking a pass on the race the day before, at the funeral of a mutual friend. So when Mark came to visit her, he arrived with a proposal. “Since you’re not running, I want to know if you’ll run my campaign,” he said. “We could put the team back together.”

    Jenny told him, in so many words, that wasn’t going to happen. Mark made one last appeal.

    “I could pay you this time,” he said.

The Sanfords ended their marriage in 2010, almost a year after the former governor admitted to an on-going affair with a woman in Argentina. Sanford is now engaged to the Argentinian woman, Maria Belen Chapur, whom he hints will not be a prominent figure on the campaign trail.

"She’s a very private person," he told The Hill. "We'll see."

In the New York profile, Sanford describes how his relationship with Jenny became more of a business arrangement than a romantic endeavor. He told the magazine that he relied on her political advice so much that he asked her for advice immediately before the press conference where he admitted his affair.

“Be honest and get it over with," she said, according to the former governor. "Whatever you do, don’t talk about your heart."

The special election for South Carolina's 1st congressional district is set for May 7. Sanford, who held the congressional seat prior to his turn in the statehouse, is considered the frontrunner in a crowded Republican field. Both parties will hold primaries for the House seat on March 19.

Nice to see Danny Devito and Rhea Pearlman are back together after five months apart in a separation. Don't care if it is
mlc or not, glad it happened. More reconcilation stories are better than not. 40 years together. Sometimes, couples need a break?

[Thundarr]

Hadn't heard that about Danny and Rhea but that makes me happy.  I'm a fan of them both and always thought they were a wonderful couple.  Good news to go to bed on, so thank you SIP!!
