Are You On The List?... AND You Can’t Un-ring a Bell!

By Lafe Tolliver, Esq
Guest Column

(1)    Come out…come out…wherever you are! Remember that childhood game?

You were supposed to hide and after a period of time, if you were not found, then you won and then the finder would call out to you and say, “Come out…come out, wherever you are!”
 


Lafe Tolliver, Esq

     You would come out from your secret hiding place with a big smile, knowing that you were the victor and your hiding place was so cool and well kept, that no one found you.

     Now, fast forward to your adult life and maybe you are still one of those late-blooming adults still playing that fantasy game but, only this time, the stakes are real and upfront.

     How’s so? Did you ever heard of the adult cheating website called Ashley Madison?

     If not, here is how it works: you go to the site and, with a promise of total security and anonymity, you enter your name and e-mail address and credit card information and voila! You have entered a playground of adults, male and female, who are cruising around look for a cheat.

    A cheat? Yeah. They are trying to find people who, just like them, are willing to also register at that site and give up their personal data and history and to say a few sexy and choice morsels about their sexual proclivities so as to entice you to have an affair with them.

     Why? The motto of the site says it all: Life is Short. Have an Affair.

Seemingly millions of people, worldwide, thought that their lives were in fact too short and wanted to spread their wings, among other things, and sample fleshly fare other than what they were now purportedly sampling.

    It is a site where you can unload your fantasies and be bold and brazen as to your peccadilloes and someone might be in the same mindset as you are and BINGO! you make a connection and the rest is up to you and your future cheater.

    Well, guess what happened? Now, millions and millions of those registrars are being caught up in a tempest due to a hacker group that threatened to expose the participants and when the demands of the hackers went unmet, the hackers kept their word.

     They release goo-gobs of information of personal data from that website and now the fallout begins.

      Purportedly divorce lawyers from coast-to-coast are on DEFCON 5 high alert for a upcoming uptick in divorces to be filed; and jilted marriage partners are warming up pots of hot grits for a 2 AM bedtime greeting to pour on their errant spouse.

     Based upon my in depth contacts with the hacker group, they have supplied me with the e-mails of the most notorious users and I, in conjunction with the hackers and their mission, have decided to do my part and unload those scarlet e-mail addresses.

 

     So, if you used any of the below e mail addresses, I strongly suggest that you

either run for the hills or be prepared to fork out hefty amounts of legal fees when the papers come to you asking for a divorce, alimony and child support payments.

     So, read and weep but here are the most egregious e-mails that have been disclosed to a gossip tainted public:

xxx@yourplaceormine.com/xxx@whowillfindout.com/xxx@itsallaboutme.com/

xxx@dontworrybehappy.com/xxx.stupidwillneverknow.com/xxx@nooneunderstandsme.com/

xxx@readylikefreddy.com/xxx@alimonyproof.com/xxx@herekittykitty.com/

xxx@howcouldthisbewrong.com/xxx@Iwillleavehim.com/xxx@whatweddingring.com/

xxx@sneakaroundtime.com/xxx@judgmentwhatjudgment.com/xxx@nowyoutellme.com/

xxx@Ishouldhaveknown.com/xxx@justlosteverything.com.

     If you have ever used any of the above emails, you, my friend may have been busted!

(2) Un-ringing a Bell?

     Did you read the recent semi-sob story of former Mayor Michael Bell now indicating that he may have mis-read the public outrage for his past support of Senate Bill 5 which was proposed by Governor Kasich and which would have drastically curtailed the power of public unions?

     Now the crybaby is thinking back to his stubborn days of being a SB5 supporter and hopes that his now contrite, crocodile tears will sway enough voters to give him another chance at being mayor!

     Would someone please do the only kind and hospitable act and give the former mayor a box of tissues and gently show him the public stage exit ramp.

     Former Mayor Bell was not an intellectual lightweight. How could he not read the public tea leaves in a union town and realize that his championing Governor Kasich’s proposal was a political death knell?

     Why did he go ahead and do it? He made a political decision and if he thought it was right and correct and was part of his game plan, he should live and die by it and not now wring his hands and maybe, just maybe re-think his support of that issue.

      He has been characterized by a local columnist as being his own man and a standup guy. If so, then he needs to quit moaning and groaning about his past vigorous support of that legislation and take his licks and slink away.

     If he did it his way in spite of advice to the contrary, why is he now grinning and skinning and trying to win back the voters favor for another run at the mayor’s office?

    It is because of vanity… a bruised ego. Mike Bell feels he is more than just a past puppet for Senate Bill 5. He wants to get back into the mayor’s chair and show everyone that he is more than a one-dimensional mayor; and that he has more to show than his support for that doomed legislation or the now busted deal for the waterfront property with the no-show Chinese buyers.

     No…now the former mayor wants to forswear off both Chinese food and Republican follies and plead with the voters that he is a changed man and that he will be good if they give him a second bite at the apple.

    My sage advice to the voters? Snatch the dangling apple away and tell Mike that he already got his one bite and that was more than enough.
