It brings tears to my eyes. The day this first broke headlines on the news and right now.

I'll try to catch it tonight at 9. I heard the commercial this morning and made a note to check it out.

Janet is going to talk about the Super Bowl incident (which should be interesting).
Did anyone see yesterday's show with the former governor of NJ?

 As a Jersey girl, you can imagine the states response when former Governor McGreavy called a press conference to make his announcement!

I saw that episode. If they said how much prison time he got, I missed it. Her pics prior to the incident were so pretty. She was so positive about everything too, that got me. I just kept thinking the entire show "men are crazy". You go to somebody's job, with some gasoline in a Sprite can, pour it on them and set them on fire?! That is absolutely nuts. It has never been that serious for me.

Actually Ms. SKEE, I think people are crazy! I saw the previews for the show, and something very similar happened to a woman in Miami when I was there on vacation. I will probably get jumped for this, but without desensitizing the young lady's situation, women have been known to do the craziest things to a man (out of "love"). I hope any person (man or woman) would get the book thrown at them for act of violence like that. I just don't want this to be a "man-bashing" thing.

Re: Today on Oprah
I did see this show. His mother is outragous!!!! I felt sorry for him because he wants to go to his sister's graduation and can't because that man will be there. Just like Oprah said, he doesn't have a mother anymore, at least not in the true sense of what a mother should be. His family members, if they care about him, will not allow his molester to be at family gatherings.
If someone did that to my kids......let's just say I would make the front page of the paper!!!!

^^ That is shameful. Hope he doesn't have any plans to "finish the job"... I just remembered the footage of the judge dropping the order of restraint...this poor woman has been dealt a bad hand all around. At least that judge is only on administrative duty now.
