Dear Slog:

you'd love to post the big follow up to persoin who cloned her pit bulls.

She was in the news a few decades ago for stalking a Mormom from BYU to UK then she nabbed him and tied him up for kinky sex.

Apparently she does not like media attention on that right now she wants to be remembered for her good deeds, eg, cloning pit bulls.

pc, that was already covered in slog days ago. if you'd pull your head out of your ass every now and then, you'd know this.

@3
I saw Slog covering pit bull angle but didn't see anything about Mormom kidnapping.

Was it covered?

My mistake. One thousand apologies.
REally, on my mother's grave. I most humbly bow down in abject supplication for your majecty's forgiveness for committing the horrible crime of suggesting an item of interest, when it was already covered.

This must have taken up about 0.0000000000000000001% of your day, to have to read about that agin.

In the future I will thoroughly review every post, and every comment, and I promise this will never, ever, ever happen again.

But if you are wrong? Oh and you don't provide a cite, so I don't honestly know if you are right or wrong.

But let's just say hypothetically that you are wrong and it wasn't covered?
The knky sex angle?

Then chew on this.

It's no biggie. You got mad and snarky for no reason. That's okay. You're human, there's no real harm done here, so go in peace. Chill. Fare thee well. Vaya con dios. Peace out. You have my blessing!

STM:
Right you were. Thank you for the link.
You "win"! I had assumed there was no follow up post on the pit bull cloning lady, and I made the suggestion that Slog post about the follow up story, and then......


You caught me!

Woo-hoo, woo-hoo!!!! Hallellujah!!

You have officially "scored a point" on this all important debate of whether or not I missed a Slog post. Golly gee whilikers, you are a fine policeperson of inappropriate commenting. There I was .....I just posted without reviewing all prior posts..... how lazy of me......but you did us all a service by finding out......my assumption was wrong!

Perhaps you should pursue a careet as a private detective.

OK everyone, glad we straightened that one out. Calm down. IT's very exciting to score a nanopoint, I know, but try to breath deeply.

And STM, still I say:
peace out. And chill.

It's no biggie either way.

This is why Slog should stop letting people comment on posts. PLEASE consider disabling comments.

And don't get me started on letting people use made up names to comment, that is just the worst.
