Such is the difference

Such is the difference between two sides of the Atlantic.

You lot read it with cynicism and bile - yes, Wolfrum, if this entire piece on your column isn't an attempt to steal thunder, then I don't know what is - while we over here read it and most of us will nod knowingly.

Personally, I think it was rather brave. I wish more men could put their thoughts to women into words as cogently as Andrew has.

Married, Wolfrum? If yes, I'm surprised. If not, I have no problem figuring out why.

Also, life isn't so serious that you should be calling for his resignation. Go outside, take a deep breath and enjoy life.

Why you can get the costume

Outfits? OUTFITS?

Seriously. Old maids get outfits? Why the hell didn't anybody inform me and where can I get one?

AMAZING. A+ WOULD READ AGAIN.

I think you people are all sick. Seriously- I don't know how you could take something

that was meant and written with good intentions and twist it into some weird freakshow. The guy wrote that love letter with open-hearted intentions for the love of his life. That's clear.

How Lizzie could construe that as stalkerish or negative makes me think she is sleeping alone every night with nothing but her old maid outfit to keep her company. Or with a guy who dreams about slitting his own wrists. Get a grip, Lizzie.

Grammar police: "...for compassion's sake." Although, I probably would have gone with, "...for fuck's sake." But that's just me.

What can I say, I'm a hardliner on some issues, especially journalistic ethics and stalking issues. Politicsdaily.com is the No. 700 in the U.S. Dagblog is No. 50k, for compasions sake. It's a big site, about political issues. And the politically minded are not always a stable lot. It's not a place to dedicate 1,000 words to how you feel the "love of your life"on a wedding. I stick with firing offense.

Here is how I see it.. dun dun DUN.

He sat in front of his computer, tears rolling down his cheeks. "I Love Her", he thought, "She needs to know, it could change everything." The tears continued to fall over his cheeks, his hands were damp, he felt a huge release. He loved her so, he really wanted the world to know, for this was his masterpiece, he'd been waiting for this moment his whole life, he was going to become the new Hemingway. He felt proud. He shed just one more tear, cleared his eyes, looked hard at this beautiful essay, it was, to him, perfection. There he was, the only thing that stood between him and ultimately fame, was that button, the dreaded button, his hand seemed to react slowly, his thoughts streaming. He sat there for one more minute, and in the next minute he hit that button. PUBLISH.

He just sits there now, staring at his laptop, wondering what happened, how could things go so horribly wrong?

Hahahaha

I have to wonder what the hell his editors, who at least ostensibly are being paid for their discretion and oversight on what gets printed, were doing that day . . . *that* constitutes a firing offense, I would think.

Not at all.
