On Leashing That Passion

The lady in the picture is rumored to have been the direct object of Julian Assange’s attentions in Sweden:

Worth Risking Jail?

Julian, let me share with you a canned rant that I offer to all the young lads: men control their passions. Boys, not so much. Admire your Rule 5 where and how you see it, but bear in mind: if she’s not your wife, you have no business being ‘busy’ with her.

Generalizing, the great screw-ups in life frequently share a thread of living strictly in the present tense. Sure, we live our lives chronologically, but they’re still our lives; a connected chain of moments stretching until our heart beats its last. A shot o’ leg from a tasty squeeze here triggers a tremendous snarl a few shots down the chain.
So, write her a poem, take a cold shower, run a few miles, but, really, Julian: do manage the wedding tackle like a man.

Oh, and while we’re on this nautical metaphor, have a care with whom you’re screwing professionally. Acts of war are defined in an increasingly broad fashion, and the chain of moments in your life could come to a sudden bitter end. Seriously, and without snark: that would be unfortunate.

    On leashing that anger

    Todd’s in-your-face attitude reminded me of your buddy Dan Ri-ehl. Tell him to kindly avoid those black kids on public transport. Nobody wants to see blood.

    Or maybe Dan was a paid consultant to the DC rally organizers. That explains.

    She is nuts Joe. According to an article I read in the New York Post today [but is not online yet]: [Anna] Ardin…recently posted a bizarre, seven-step “model (on how to) exact legal revenge” on exes on her blog. The missive included tips for sabotaging the “victim’s” other sexual relationships and “ensur[ing] that your victim will suffer the same way as he made you suffer.”

    Call it: Fatal Reaction.
