47. Lots of folks engage in pretty weird sex acts.

And I think everyone can agree that as long as no one gets hurt, consents and is of age there is no harm.

Some folks photograph those acts. Again, kinda dumb if you ask me, but no one is hurt.

Then those photos on a computer are stolen and released.

Most people would be horrified. Their children would be mortified.

Now some folks say since the AM folks were cheaters, they and their families deserve this mortification. I dissent. Some things are private. Sex lives are private for everyone.

I have had enough of The Junior Linda Tripp League.
