In wake of the Boston bombing, I expected a whole lot of knee-jerk reactions.  First major meltdown apparently is New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg. “The people who are worried about privacy have a legitimate worry,” Mr. Bloomberg said during a press conference in Midtown. “But we live in a complex word where you’re going to [...]

I did NOT have sext with that woman. Or that one. Or that one. That line that would have worked I think. Unfortunately “I was hacked” was instead.  Arrogrant pricks just don’t garner much sympathy.
