ROME: Should Catholics divorce Pope Benedict XVI for his role in the church’s sex crimes coverup?
An increasingly non-practicing Catholic myself, I've become even more skeptical in light of the recent explosion of sexual misconduct allegations against Catholic priests the world over. What I was wholly unprepared for, though, was the seemingly close connection that current Pope Benedict XVI has to the whole sordid mess. It seems when he was [...]
NEW YORK: Stealing content from divorce blogs is not cool
Okay. I am pissed off. Why is this website www.divorcingyourpartner.com continuously coming to my website, taking my content, getting link baits on their site and google ads, which means they are making money on my intellectual property without my consent? Not to mention infringing my copyrights and trademarks? What's up with that? I wouldn't [...]
Quaterback Drew Brees doesn’t have to worry about Brittany divorcing him anytime soon
Why? He won the superbowl!
Super bowl divorces are on the wane?
Used to be that less women were into sports than currently are. What that has meant historically is that around super bowl time, a lot of marriages in America went belly up due to the emotional and often physical absenteeism of the nation's husbands. But a lot of chicas wised up and realized it wasn't worth it to pout and carry on and act like an [...]
A Prayer for HAITI’S orphans, men, women, children, divorcees and all other citizens
I watched the star studded tribute to Haiti last night and I think it finally sunk in how devastating this human tragedy was and is. There was one song by Simon and Garfunkel that really touched me and I thought it was fitting so I wanted to personally dedicate it to all the people in Haiti. So from Divorce Saloon to Haiti: When you're [...]
Google’s NEXUS ONE and the monkey business of catching your spouse in flagrante delicto
Unless you've been living under a rock, you've probably heard that Google has released its new phone, the Nexus One, which is supposed to challenge the I-Phone for market share, and to a lesser extent, the Blackberry. Naturally, given all the free time I have and the lack of a life, I found myself with disposable moments to ponder a divorce [...]
What if God divorced humanity?
What if God were one of us? And he got so sick of us he decided to divorce us? And he packed his bags and left us? What if he took all his assets? Like water, light, air, and food and left us to fend for ourselves and acquire our own stuff and make a way for ourselves with nothing to start out with? What if he left us economical wiped out [...]
Does cohabitation always lead to divorce?
Obviously not. Sure, the statistics show that a disproportionate number of marriages that started as a co-habitation arrangement do tend to end in divorce. But at the same time, many folks have co-habited and have remained in strong marriages. It is really a function of the level of commitment that would weather the storms of marriage, and not [...]
Can the police serve my spouse the divorce petition?
Under normal circumstances, I think the general rule is that the police and sheriff do not get involved in serving divorce papers or petitions, unless there is domestic violence alleged or if there is an order of protection in place. For sure, that is the rule in New York. Each state and country is different, obviously. But it would seem an abuse [...]
HAPPY NEW YEAR!….So what’s the skinny on your New Year’s resolution to get a divorce in 2010?
Since January is the most divorce-prone month of the year in almost any jurisdiction, it begs the question whether folks actually make it a New Year's Resolution to get divorced in the New Year or not? My hunch is that 2010 will be the most divorce-rich year in recent memory as compared with 2008-2009 which was probably, globally, the year with [...]
NEW YORK: Former call girl Ashley Dupree gets columnist job with NY Post
Please don't use any of these insulting epithets to describe Ashley Dupree. She is not a prostitute, call girl or hooker. Though her tryst with governor Spitzer resulted in his resignation as New York governor in 2008, (he reportedly paid her about $4000 per hour) she does not answer to any of those degrading names. Instead, she is a columnist. A [...]
NEW YORK: Former M.I.T. admissions dean Marilee Jones moves on post-scandal and post-divorce
Marilee Jones is now a college consultant, 2 years after the scandal broke out that she had lied about having college degrees for about 30 years while employed by prestigious M.I.T. According to a New York Times report, she is now ready to put the scandal behind her. She is also freshly divorced from her husband Steven R. Bussolari, of M.I.T.’s [...]
RICHARD BRANSON LAUNCHES VIRGIN GALACTIC SPACELINER CALLED: SPACESHIP TWO; where’s the divorce?
Richard Branson is not getting divorced. He loves his wife and kids very much. But he is getting soft in the head with his latest project, the Virgin Atlantic spaceliner called the Spaceship Two. The billionaire is planning to be the first commercial airline that takes folks into space just for the tourist fun of it through his company Virgin [...]
NEW YORK: Katie Couric’s Gawker pics of her debut-as-anchor-of-CBS-Evening-News party showcases the art of divorcing like it’s 2012
How to divorce like it's 2012 à la Katie Couric First, pretend you are Katie Couric at your debut as anchor party for CBS (well, for you it will be your divorce party but who cares about these ministerial details?) Second, have three martinis in rapid succession, guzzle em'down! Third, throw decorum and inhibitions into the Martini [...]
Can a website divorce Google and still be relevant?
Ask anyone who owns a website or blog and they will tell you that if Google doesn't "like" you, you might as well hang it up since you are not "in the game." In fact, if most of your daily traffic doesn't come from search engines and Google in particular, and instead comes from, say, links from other websites, that is actually seen as being a bad [...]
