Re: Heartless B*****d!

If he is found guilty, then by all means call him a heartless bastard.

I'm going to wait for the jury to deliberate before I condemn.

There is a case of a rear gunner jumping out of a burning aircraft without a parachute and surviving during the last war. He landed in deep snow.

Why can't these men just get a divorce ?
No they want the lover and the insurance .

I've learned a lot since my divorce. Many men just cannot say what they want - not something I understand, but it would have made life so much easier if my husband had just said "I want a divorce" instead of online dating, affair etc. When found out he went on the offensive and I ended up with a broken rib and multiple bruises! Before that attack though, there were times when I was truly afraid of him and felt very vunerable. The police are right to suspect the husband when a married woman dies!

Lindy, Living in fear of a violent man must be the worst thing ever.

Yes - It was a pretty terrible time of my life and I'm glad it's over.

If it's any consolation, we're not all like that.

Sorry you had to suffer that lindyloo, luckily most men aren't like that but it must be terrifying to live with one that is.

my recollection of the Guiness Book Of Records is somebody falling 20,000' and landing in branches of a pine tree unscathed. A falling (human) body will get speed limited by air resistance. This and a good chunk of luck can mean survival.

Well of course, yes, she did survive.

I didn't see where she landed and on what surface, though. Any ideas?
