The journalist obviously didn't check his facts. Originally Posted by berthesghost

Jenna was World Champion at bra-strap and wedgie fixing.
To think that fun is simple fun, while earnest things are earnest, proves all too plain that neither one thou truthfully discernest.

Gee- here was me thinking that the news that he was three times over the legal driving limit and could have potentially have hurt (or worse) someone with his idiotic notion that he was fit to drive, would have caused a response!
Instead the inaccuracies of how many medal winners is the only comback!

Then why didn't you say that's what you wanted to talk about, instead of just posting the link? Originally Posted by lay'dback

What is the point of posting something that is totally obvious and that everybody who isn't braindead agrees on? Originally Posted by lay'dback

Yes, drink-driving is wrong and irresponsible.

Shame.
The worst part of it is that we've become used to this kind of message - figure skater drunk behind the wheel. I hope being stopped and fined makes Mr. Bureiko consider his doings more in the future. Living with a life on the conscience is among the most dreadful things that can happen to a person and it happens so quickly.
