    Boom keeps his kids off the internet by keeping them busy playing with matches.

    Actually, we are raising them to be Dominican ballplayers. No internet until they get to Triple A.

    One of the first things my father said to me as we were setting up internet in the house for the the first time was, "There is a lot of information out there. Some of it right. Some of it wrong. For example, there are stupid people that believe the Holocaust didn't happen. They are wrong."

    I wasn't quite sure why the Holocaust was brought up. I guess he was reading an article or something.

    To answer both questions...they thought someone *was* there because in every instance they AT LEAST heard a girl tell them to come in and take a seat. A few of them even saw the girl waving them in before she went off into another room and Hansen appeared.

    As for answering Hansen's questions, I can only guess it's because when caught red handed they think their best option is to try to talk their way out of it. As bad as they look doing it, it's no worse than running out of there when Hansen appears. That makes them look even more guilty.

    Trounced, do you realize how meaningless the vast majority of MySpace "friendships" are? I've got people on my various e-community friend lists that I had a class with once. It doesn't mean KY Fried has a close relationship with this H.S. girl. She's probably like a sister or something.

    Not brain surgeons, are they? If you really had driven across state to meet an underage girl, you gonna walk in the apartment based on a voice in the other room? If you are too dumb to consider the cops, maybe she has a pack of brothers ready to beat the snot out of you.

    Geez. At least carry a pizza and pretend you are the delivery guy.

    Now, it turns out the MOTHER, 34, was a MySpacer, too.

    "Tammy Toker."

    Nice.

    I wonder if they had each other as friends.

    I hereby apologize to the board for defending the parents in this thread.

    The kid probably ran off with the man to get away from her mother.

    So fucking sad.
