the story of Marilyn Monroe is fascinating and of course also tragic in so many ways.

I am reading it for the first time. she left the world too early.

I did not know she had such a tragic childhood. she was **** and abused when she was just 11 years old.

Yes, she had a very rough childhood. Did you know her mother was bi-polar or even schizophrenic? She had Marilyn at an early age and felt she wasn't strong or stable enough to raise her, so she gave her away to a family she thought would be able to do a better job than her. Not sure when the **** happened but it was bound to happen at some point, given how she was tossed around from one family to another. There are lots of freaks out there after all and it still happens in many households these days - growing in fact. Many don't even want to talk about it. Anyway, Marilyn was very afraid that she was going to get her mom's mental illness and it is said that she perhaps became one eventually, as she would be one person in front of the camera and quite another behind the camera. She also went to many doctors and was on many prescription drugs.  Despite the rough childhood, I still think she is more or less responsible for her downfall. Had she not constantly portrayed herself as a bimbo, she would have had a much better life but then again, she always seemed confused about everything. I still like her. I find her beautiful and for some reason, very innocent.

Owen, your response got lost in quotes but more importantly, I am trying to figure out if this is a genuine response from you or if this is another famous sarcasm of yours. :) I am serious.

It's serious.  Facebook has it's uses - i.e. I share pictures of the kids to their grandparents and aunties back in the UK, but most people seem to use it as a vehicle to drone on about how crap they feel and it's usually related to something relatively minor in the great scheme of things.  I can't say I'm much of a fan. 

I like Twitter though - get loads of news and info from that.

I don't have a FB account so I wouldn't know anything about it, really. My sister is a FB junkie and at times she does try to show me pictures posted by other friends or family members, but I very rarely show any interest. I am only interested in my brothers' families and their children, so I don't mind seeing those.

I can see though why you would want to have a FB account given that you are away from your country and the kids do need to stay in touch with the grandparents, aunties etc. but can those not be done via email as well? Just curious. You know, there was a time when we didn't have FB, Twitter etc. In fact, the Twitter stuff makes me laugh especially when you realize its birth is so recent. I remember Dmas first talked about it either in 2008 or 2009 at Tennis4You and now it has taken the world by storm. I agree though that Twitter contains a lot of current information so it can be useful in that way.

litotes is the one they call markus.

he was crying about how he cant post at tennis4you because he has some sort of arthritis and cant really type.

and then he is posting away like there is no tomorrow at mtf with freaky and other imbeciles.


I brought him to tennis frontier to help Baron grow his forum.


all these morons just cant enough attention so they need a place like MTF to waste away at.

facebook has its uses but for our purposes, there is nothing like a cool forum.


only a handful of people might read facebook but the whole world can read the forum.

forum offers the options that we need for our purposes.


I use facebook strictly to advertise Camelot and to recruit cool folks if possible.

I met Laurice on facebook. she runs our Christian center along with Sara.

I took a fleeting glimpse of a couple of her movies a few years ago:

one was "some like it hot" and the other one was "naiagra".


I never knew much about her.


her story is fascinating and endearing.


so now she has a presence at Camelot.

yesterday general CETSVids stopped by to post her "happy birthday mr president" song.

looks like she has fans at Camelot.

I am still working on this. I am trying to figure out how to display it at one of the threads.

that live Australian feed might come in handy during the Australian open.
