Yes, the OW is a worthless hag. And in my opinion, the two of them deserve each other.

I edit almost all my posts b/c I always find grammar errors in them after I post them. I did not edit any content from them.

I can't help what you imagine...or assume you read in them.

ETA: I believe the mods can bring up my uneditted posts so you can review them, if you like.

Suamico,
Here is the little reference to his wife and his justification for dumping her

"M: And my daughter's screaming (cross-talking) you have no [censored] soul. You can't give a [censored] (panting) I left my wife because we had no spiritual common ground. You and I have none! Zero! You won't even [censored] try. (hyperventilating) You don't care. You don't care."

Brief but there.

No more Mel movies for my family.

Well, shoot! That means I'll have to give up the only Mel Gibson movie I ever saw. No more "Chicken Run." crybaby

The Hollywood Reporter has learned that after the disturbing Mel Gibson audio tapes became public earlier this month, Oksana Grigorieva wrote Gibson a text explaining why she'd surreptitiously recorded their conversations.
According to a source familiar with the case, Grigorieva writes in the text that the reason she recorded him was because "you broke your agreement with me."

The source says that there are additional emails that will likely be used by Gibson's attorneys to prove that Grigorieva attempted to use the audio tapes to extort money from Gibson. The source adds that Grigorieva was also upset about the breakup and was looking to reconcile.

The Los Angeles County sheriff's department today confirmed they are investigating Grigorieva.

Based on sealed court documents reviewed by The Hollywood Reporter, it also appears that Grigorieva's family law attorney, Manley Freid, hasn't been helping her cause.

At a June 22 court hearing, the judge sharply criticized Freid's previous conduct in obtaining a temporary restraining order the day before for his client, specifically noting Grigorieva's failure to tell the court about a previous $15 million settlement agreement between herself and Gibson.

"[Her lawyer] did something truly remarkable," notes a source close to the case. "He did not disclose to the court that there was a settlement agreement between Oksana and Mel."

"Manley Freid's strategy accomplished nothing," says a source close to the case. "It's all out there now. They pressed the nuclear button and Gibson is still basically standing. There's zero upside for Grigorieva in terms of money, custody and visitation."

In other words, her whole strategy may have backfired.

You shouldn't watch Braveheart anyway.

The gross misrepresentation of who fathered the prince's son is a historical inaccuracy....a bad one.

Wait - Karma, children don't gestate for 7 years?!?!?! What?!?! (Death of William Wallace: 1305, Birth of Edward III: 1312) And yet people BELIEVE Hollywood when they spew the nonsense of friendly divorces, no damage affairs, and soulmates....

Sorry - I'm threadjacking all over the place... maybe I should get back to work.

This is why you never want to go to the movies with me.

I will pick apart every inaccuracy, every detail out of place.

And everyone wonders why I don't go to the theatre often.

Im not watching it for historical accuracy or to extend my knowledge of the atrocities by the English on the Scots.

I watch it for the beefcake and naked backsides cool

ITA I also pick out all the mistakes in clothing, speech, grammatical errors, continuity points... and if there is even a hint of infidelity I make less than subtle noise. Which is one section of Braveheart I fast forward, that and the stuff bit after with the queen wandering the halls with a vacuous smile on her dial.

Well i watch Braveheart because when he discovers the betrayal by Robert the Bruce it seems just as I would feel, and have felt,when betrayed. Mel nailed it as far as Im concerned.

All the strength and conviction goes out of you, you are feel weak, you notice your pain, and you wonder if you should just give up and die.

Historical honesty, Hah!. Its a story that they have taken,(ahem), "artistic lisense" or whateva to make it attractive. I never believe the details in those things and tear um apart constantly too.

Oh and Patrick McGoohan has allways been a favorite of mine. remember "Secret Agent Man"? lol

Its a total fantasy movie with some base on fact. We all need heros. I know that Mel is amessed up person now, and it will taint my watching of his stuff, but I don't know. If he goes back to his wife and realizes she was really his only strength maybe he can redeem some respect. Heck, didn't he realize he wasn't the hero he portrays? His wife sure knows. She probably has allways put up with his stuff. I hope she really works him over and gets some respect now that he has fallen. That or dumps him. There is only so much anyone can blame on the price of fame.

Interesting update - just as I thought - DV a little too staged by supposed victim??? Bribery?

The ? that made recovery possible: "Which lovebuster do I do the most that hurts the worst"?

The statement that signaled my personal recovery and the turning point in our marriage recovery: "I don't need to be married that badly!"

If you're interested in saving your relationship, you'll work on it when it's convenient. If you're committed, you'll accept no excuses.
