Actually, it is a reliable news outlet. They are well aware of British libel law. I doubt that they
would print a knowingly false or negligently false story.
The question I have is, when did they start seeing each other.

Well said. I have the feeling that Kristen is going to come through this looking and smelling like
the Yellow Rose of Texas. Lance-O-Lot may wind up as stinkweed if he's not careful.
And what effect will Sandra have on his preparation for 2004?

There very definitely is as applies to the Tabloids. In fact, the tabloids have on occasion been
sued in Britain by celebs and the tabloids occasionally lose in court. The page 3 girls are usually
models or amateurs from who the appropriate releases have been obtained.
And what recent major news story did The National Enquirer break that the mainstream press in the
US? didn't??

Rush Limbaugh is a hypocrite who abuses drugs while condemning others who do the same. (Until he got
caught.) The Enquirer broke that story. Did you mean that the Enquirer covered that the mainstream
press never covered because one cannot break a story and have someone else break the story as well.

The question I have is, when did they start seeing each other.
Speaking as someone that has been through divorce, I would say it is very unusual to start dating
immediately unless there was a pre-determined intention to do so and the individual was waiting for
to be "OK".
If anyone has a different opinion that is not simply looking to kiss Lance'e ass, I would like
to hear it.
I suppose I would be willing to believe it if this was related to his "zest for life and habit of
never looking back". It still makes him look like a smuck, but this is a guy convinced that there is
no afterlife and feels like he might day any day now.

However, this line wasn't in The Mirror story
According to the reports, he has known Bullock since teaming up with her to plan a charity bicycle
ride in Texas earlier this year.
IF the affair started pre-2003 Tour, so much for Kristen trying to work things out,
including the Tour where she got a very cold shoulder after a Lance stage win. And wasn't
that a great photo of Lance, Kristen and the kids together holding up five fingers each? I
really feel for Kristen and the kids. She married a [censored], IMO. I hope she's got a good
attorney. . "Richard Adams" <[email hidden]> wrote in message

IIRC, it was the Enquirer that first broke the story that Limbag was the subject of a criminal drug
investigation.
