ENDNOTE: Charlie Sheen, for instance!2015-Nov-28http://www.today.com/health/charlie-sheen-reveals-hes-hiv-positive-today-show-exclusive-t56391 Charlie Sheen reveals he's HIV positive in TODAY Show exclusive Sun Kyung Kim TODAYAdChoices | advertisement Promoted Links From the *** begin quote *** Charlie Sheen revealed he is HIV positive Tuesday in an exclusive TODAY interview with Matt Lauer. *** end quote *** Hate the sin; love the sinner. Is anyone surprised that an out of control decadent life style has its own risk? As a little L libertarian, I don’t want to pay for your choices and I don’t want to hear about them. And as a USAF DI told us in basic, “be careful where you dip your pen. you can’t get in trouble if you keep everything zipped. including your mouth.” I have to admit that I have laughed at his “antics” (i.e., winning; tiger blood; his TV personalities). At the same time, I always thought: “This is NOT going to end well.” A lot like Hugh Hefner and the Playboy lifestyle. Get to the end of that road and you’re just a dirty old man being used by young women to make a name for themselves. So, now we have to just have sympathy for these sad old men who have “made their own bed”. Let he, who is without sin, cast the first stone. Hope things get better for poor old Charlie. # - # - # - # - # |
