Swimgal,
I did know that Meesh wasn't quite the 21 year old we all admire her to be. That was just kind of an inside thing, but my apologies that it came across that I was confused, hehe.
Peirsolfan, I do know about the "hotness" quote you talked about, it came from an interview posted on the website from Duel in the Pool, and after listening to it a couple times, I think it was more intended as a self-jabbing joke, not really an egotistical statement of fact. Granted, I'm not Aaron, nor am I making a call on it, but I know myself that I don't consider me to be the hottest thing on the planet, but I've been known to joke about it.
As far as the fan telling him off, a couple things: 1) I would like to see that video, if nothing more than to see his reaction to it. 2) I can imagine it must have stung quite a bit to be told that he has nothing going for him other than his swimming talent. I know that if someone I didn't know at my job overheard me saying something about my hotness, then told me I was arrogant and didn't really have anything going for me except for my phone-answering skills (let's face it, if they complimented my swimming, I'd be over the moon) I'd be off either bawling into my manager's arms or cleaning the blood off the floor.
Lastly, because I have to be at work early in the morning, I don't think what these girls (at least the ones at BHO - not that I'm prejudiced or anything to a website) do could be considered stalking. Especially when they make friends with the family and are invited to sit with them at meets. Now, if they start taking his chewing gum or half-eaten dinner rolls, we'll talk. Boy oh boy we'll talk.
