I am linking a story about Ian Thorpe. He said he was ready to quit because of all the crap that he takes being who he is. He is training here to get away from all the BS he said he puts up with in Australia. I guess the press is really hounding the guy. He says he is going to tighten his belt and ignore what people are saying about him and try to have the best meet of his career in 2008. It will be interesting to see what he does at the World Championships in Melbourne in 2007.

I know this is all in good fun and believe me I have a sense of humor. But there are many people with alcohol adictions (Mel probably being one of them), who really don't appreciate joking about it. No I am not an alcoholic, but am related to some. All I am asking is to show some sensitivity to those who are stricken with the addiction.
