  • LOL at his press release.

    Mary Varrall didn’t cover herself with glory with some of these comments. Actually in particular the “So who is this man? Probably, not the one that many thought” part really looked as an opportunistic attempt to use his outing by the press

    I think LD blogger Stephen Tall had a good blog entry about it when it happened.
