The glamour of it all!

That "alluringly strange and reclusive entity" is generally called "a family" by most folks. And indeed it's a shame when those any of those entities break up into their component parts.

Casey May 15, 2008 at 5:25 p.m.

LOL..well certinly Lange is strange and reclusive....dunno about Shania but I guess she was too and simply got tired of hiding out in Switzerland....lol

EdwardKeenan May 15, 2008 at 6:45 p.m.

I don't think they're asleep -- I think that last line is what they're paying blogger Marlene Arp for. Can't you see she has tatoos? Why else would they post a photo?

So: Blogger Doug Bell -- starved for material and attempting to be snarky -- assails Marlene Arp, who, starved for material, was attempting to be snarky. And then the internet eats its own face.

Xavier May 15, 2008 at 6:53 p.m.

Woah woah - this isn't a blog. This is a regular story. Not sure if casually calling people strange and reclusive counts as journalism.

Barbara_in_BC May 15, 2008 at 7:03 p.m.

Edward Keenan: Good point about the internet eating its own face but it's not Marlene, apparently it's Malene.

EdwardKeenan May 15, 2008 at 7:04 p.m.

Nope .. it's a blog: http://thestar.blogs.com/stargazing/

EdwardKeenan May 15, 2008 at 7:05 p.m.

And yes, Barbara, she misspells her name. Noted.

Xavier May 15, 2008 at 7:29 p.m.

Ah! You're right - but then why is the Star presenting blog entries as stories. The whole thing reads in that standard, dry, informative wire-service tone, then, bam, there's that last line. Doesn't strike you as a bit odd?

Barbara_in_BC May 15, 2008 at 7:55 p.m.

Xavier: I guess they thought that last line added a personal touch to the wire story, kind of like a swirl of whipped cream with a cherry on top.

Xavier May 15, 2008 at 8:25 p.m.

How delicious!

Still not convinced that it's responsible journalism, though.

Fintan May 16, 2008 at 1:46 a.m.

I'd have been tempted to write this headline: "Entity Rent in Twain".

That is so ghetto leaf.
But that picture does state several aspects of the mindset that produced it, namely yours. How dare you draw an automatic handgun. It's illegal to own because it's a restricted weapon here in Canada, it's main purpose is to hurt other human beings, I could care less if a proportion of the society claims they must shoot targets with this weapon as a form of recreation, because in the hands of people who perhaps draw guns like yourself, they could be lethal or at the very least ridiculously threatening as drawn here on this blog by you, just now.....you crossed the line, you need to take 10 steps back and contemplate a reasonable explanation to explain this insult to common sense. (get that run-on sentence into you!)

Casey May 16, 2008 at 9:30 a.m.

leaf May 16, 2008 at 4:39 a.m.

What a sick, depraved freak leaf is - imagine getting off posting a picture of a gun - typical and totally expected from a creep such as leaf.

leafmold May 16, 2008 at 9:37 a.m.

Very well said, Jade_Lee, but a waste of finger muscles to type that out. You are addressing a psychopath, someone who is completely incapable of recognizing the difference between right and wrong. Fortunately, this is a sad car-wreck of a human being who has been terribly abused in some way or other and who has never known empowerment. Someone has speculated that "leaf" is a product of parental sexual abuse, and that seems plausible. Either that, or the creature is somehow physically deformed and has not been allowed or able to come to terms with it. Now the creature seeks to browbeat, frighten and bully, but has no effective means of harming others. The pathetic spiteful things that it has tried have had no effect. It also has a twisted sense of purpose, as evidenced in a claim in one of its posts that it was "doing god's work". Let us all give the pathetic thing what it deserves most, but can not tolerate at all - a big belly laugh. It also gets into a hissy-fit when someone uses smileys. ☺ ☺ ☺

Fintan May 16, 2008 at 9:58 a.m.

So, saying that an entity has been "rent in twain" is "crude and smutty". Ha-ha. Maybe it is the way immigrants from Boogie-Woogieland understand English, but the more educated know that it actually means "split in two".

See Matthew 27:51. ☺

Fintan May 16, 2008 at 10:56 a.m.

Here's an interesting item that shows how deeply His Lardship was involved with really nasty people, who pursued really nasty causes. The fact that His Lardship is banged up for the next five years plus is only token punishment in view of the crimes, much worse than stealing many millions, of which he is undoubtedly guilty. ☹ ☹ ☹ Karma got him, and she's not finished yet.

I agree with everything you have posted EXCEPT the danger issue / no effective manner of harm. To underestimate a psychopath is to do so at your own risk - leaf is most definitely a psychopath, completely out of its mind, filled with ferocious anger and hate and cruel, depraved and perverted. I, for one, shall not take my saftey for granted where leaf is concerned and this is precisely WHY we located leaf and are monitoring it/him/her by !) saving all posts 2) paying technicians to watch this blog if I am away from my computer.
Please, leafmold, do not assume that you are free from this creep's harm or abuse and never, ever take someone like leaf OR your safety for granted.

Barbara_in_BC May 16, 2008 at 1:19 p.m.

Fintan, thanks for the link to Dean Godson material. I learned about him a while ago, what is incredible is that he comes from a family that uses covert action to spread the gospel of neoconservatism. Conrad Black and wife thought he was the cat's meow. He's like Mark Steyn, except educated and British and comes from a long line of right wing political meddlers.

leaf May 16, 2008 at 1:50 p.m.

"To underestimate a psychopath is to do so at your own risk "

so true, so true.

"Please, leafmold (aka fickton ndlr), do not assume that you are free from this creep's harm or abuse and never, ever take someone like leaf OR your safety for granted."

wise words to the unwise.

leafmold May 16, 2008 at 2:35 p.m.

Thank you for those sentiments Casey. I agree with you that one should never underestimate a psychopath, but believe the one in question here is with a 99.99% probability a really nasty, very malicious, but in reality impotent bag of wind. I'm glad, nevertheless, that you have done something about the person in question, who really deserves to be taken into custody and confined for treatment until the competent authorities are satisfied that he or she is not a danger to anyone else or him/herself. Reading back through the posts, I see all kinds of overt and implied threats against the poster in Finland (whom s/he thinks is me, LOL) and a lot of bluff. For example, she has claimed to know Fintan's real name and address, but clearly doesn't. In another post, s/he claimed to have supplied her name and address to the Helsinki police - but that cannot be true, either. Pathetic liar! It must be very frustrating wanting to harm someone so much and not being able to. This is a truly tragic case of wannabeeism - in a person who has never been anyone, never will be - and probably could never be. Can it be that "leaf" has a really big grudge against Conrad Black and his wife? S/he has claimed in a couple of posts to be working in collusion with and with the approval of one or both of them. That will be noted elsewhere. On the whole, not the kind of psychopath one need worry about too much, but I do agree with you that caution is always advisable. Oh yes, a smiley to annoy the freak. ☺

Shania and her hubby were more than a family; he also produced her recordings. The whole thing had a creepy Phil & Ronnie Spector undertone.

Fintan May 16, 2008 at 4 p.m.

Has anyone read the novel "I have No Mouth and I must Scream" by Harlan Ellison? Kind of sums up the sentiments of someone who probably was in a position of terrible helplessness at some time in the past; helpless then, powerless now, but so bursting with venom and wanting to be able to do something. And so capable of nothing.

LoL ☺ ☺ ☺

Ummm, and the above is normal? It appears that leaf posts her/its/his garbage at certain times of the day and I am willing to bet it's while leaf is drunk, stoned on other chemicals and more bored than usual. With no one around to police this creep at leaf's location, the abuse and implied or hinted at threats continue undiminished in intensity, cruelty, pervertedness. I have absolutely no doubt that leaf WILL be caught soon. In the meantime, we continue to watch and monitor its sick and depraved posts.

leaf May 16, 2008 at 4:56 p.m.

"And so capable of nothing."

i'm happy knowing others are joining me in phoning your number any old time.
i like to think i've contributed to and encouraged that.

thanks again everyone for showing your appreciation to the copycat!

Fintan May 16, 2008 at 5:40 p.m.

The Victim: "i'm happy knowing others are joining me in phoning your number any old time.

In all those months, the only calls (hundreds) have been from the Vancouver-based robot dialler and (four only) from another number in Victoria. BC - and I know whose it is and will deal with the matter as appropriate when it suits me.

The lack of solidarity for the pathetic Smeagol creature is testimony to the essential decency of virtually everyone who posts on this blog - and to their common sense because all calling numbers are recorded unless, like daddy's plaything, they use a robot dialler.

ROFLMAOS @ daddy's little cuddly girl.

leaf May 16, 2008 at 5:54 p.m.

the ever clever creep thinks i'm the only one using a robot dialler to call him...

could he be the only one not knowing what to dial to be untraceable?
lol... probably ☺

For what it's worth, leaf's location is not British Columbia. We know exactly where leaf is and continue to monitor this bonafide pervert.

FYI, leaf is one step removed from becoming officially listed in a national, international online sex offenders and predators database. This depraved creep continues to contribute to its ultimate arrest by law enforcement. What's that expression?....." on a short leash "? or is it " twisting slowly in the wind - A Nixon expression, by the way.

Expected and typical comments from 1) someone in deep legal trouble who wants to show how " fearless " and err " brave " he/she/it is - all bluster and basically being laghed at 2) someone who still thinks of itself as protected by its anonymity 3) someone who is so off the deep end mentally and emotionally that it has no idea how serious his situation has become vis a vis law enforcement, internet security and being banned by its isp.
Keep posting your drivel - all you are accomplishing is cementing the profound trouble you are in....kind of sad when someone like leaf is so completely clueless about his/her/its situation and banking on its hoped for but non existent anonymity.
