Sometimes I'm embarrassed...

I've seen the Mirror and it's a pretty typical sensational British tabloid. My English-born better half describes it as "fit to line the cat's litter box with". It's possible that the event took place exactly as recorded. It's possible that what actually took place was a very minor incident and they've exxagerated and blown it all out of proportion. It's also entirely possible that it never happened at all, was an urban legend-type rumour and is being breathlessly reported as fact to sell papers. WITH BIG SCREAMING HEADLINES!!! Having once spent 15 minutes staring glumly at a magazine rack in a Waterlooville (Hants) convenience store, desperately searching for something halfway intelligent to read in the laundromat next door, all I can say is... take this with a grain of salt. :shakeshead: Might I suggest the Daily Telegraph or The Times...not the NY Times which is also now known for it's "questionable" reporting methodlogy.
