Is there a particular reason why Elvis Stojko and Todd Eldredge aren't
married yet? I've never heard of either having a girlfriend even.
Are they virgins? Kind of odd for 30 year old men, don't you think?

Because they can't find a state or province that will perform a legally
binding ceremony?

Seriously, didn't your mother ever tell you it's rude to expect everyone
to be married by age 30 and, if they are not, to ask why they're not as if
there's something wrong with it? Whether they're male or female, skater or
not?

It's just plain rude.

Elvis and Todd are getting married? I didn't even know they were

Seriously though, lots of 30 yr old men aren't married. Staying
single is a legitmate lifestyle choice. There's also the fact that
it's difficult to find the right person...

I think that you're the idiot that made comments about Rudy at one of
the shows aren't you? Sorry to reply but...

1. Is there a rule where you come from that you have to be married by
30?

2. Just because YOU haven't heard that they have girlfriends does that
mean they haven't?

3. You must be a pretty weird individual to want to know whether
either of them are virgins - what does it matter to you if they are or
are not?

Why don't you just be straightforward and ask if they're gay?

FWIW, Elvis Stojko was engaged to Keyla Ohs (former Canadian senior ladies
silver medallist) and then according to a local newspaper broke it off
before the Olympics.

Cynthia Marie your posts are so immature. It's none of your business whether
they have girlfriends, boyfriends, or are virgins. The things you screamed at
COI, which you posted here, showed that you are obsessed with other peoples'
sexual orientation, and you acted in an extremely babyish manner by yelling
inappropriately from the audience. It's time for you to grow up.

I forgot that going onto Usenet and asking whether someone is a virgin is
pretty rude, too.

Not to mention how downright dopey it is to ask if someone is a virgin
just because he's 30 and unmarried.

In my COI program there's a section with behind the scenes photos of
last years COI. There's a little pic of Brian Boitano, Donna Summer
and Rudy Gallindo in full lipstick and eyeshadow. I'm sorry, but that
sort of thing makes me sick.

I wasn't married until I was 29. I am glad I didn't rush into marriage
at 21 or whatever. Different strokes for different folks..

I haven't had an account with that company since 1998. If they choose to
leave up a dead Web site that I no longer have had time to update since
having taken my current job, that is not my fault. I don't even have
access to it anymore to update it OR take it down.

Note to Sandra Loosemor: I would appreciate it if you would remove the
link from SkateWeb, as I asked you to do way back at that time. There's no
sin in starting a Web site and not being able to keep it up, so long as
someone doesn't keep pointing to it. I would really appreciate your
stopping pointing people to a dead link, because I really don't have the
option of taking the site down. Thanks.

I may not care for kwan's skating presentation, but her sexual orientation is
nobody's business and I would never mention it. Cynthia Marie, on the other
hand is completely obsessed with skaters' sexual preferences--probably because
she is unsure of her own.

If you think male skaters in makeup is sick, then you better quit watching

This is true not only for skaters. Any person performing on the TV has to
wear a make-up. Politicians, commentators etc. Even Pat Buchanan, whom
nobody would even dare to accuse of being gay.

I am sure that Boitano would not be wearing non stage makeup backstage anytime
at COI much less be stupid enough to have his photograph be taken in such get
up.

Do I have to scan it on the web to show you? Rudy was wearing full
makeup OFF ICE.

Well, the fact that it is in my precious book right next to the pic of
Evgeni playing video games kind of ruins it for me. When I go to look
at Evgeni, Rudy is right there and my eyes can't help but glance at
him.

May I suggest that the picture might have been taken during a
show? If Galindo was backstage waiting to go on, it's hardly
surprising that he was wearing makeup.

Hate to break it to you since you obviously believe you are making a
point, but Galindo is clearly still in costume in this photo. I've seen
him many times at local competitions, and I have yet to see him wear
makeup when he is just being himself, i.e., another audience member.

Try harder next time. Better yet, just drop it. You're boring.

Well, it was the first time *I* saw the site, and didn't know that
100% of everybody else here had already seen it.

Most men would wash all of that off as soon as they could!

I was a teenager at a time when half the male rock stars on MTV
were wearing makeup-- Prince, David Bowie, Boy George, the guys
from Duran Duran, Robert Smith from the Cure, the "hair band"
groups like Motley Crue, Ratt, and Poison, all the one-hit-wonder
new wave artists, and I'm sure I'm missing a lot of people. I
think even Sting might have worn a little eyeliner back then. It
was never a big deal. I don't remember my friends being shocked
or disgusted because of it. Maybe we all would have felt
differently if our boyfriends started wearing makeup, but a
30-year-old rock star could get away with it, especially if he
was British.

Because I grew up with all of this, my reaction to a male skater
wearing makeup is "So what?"

I've met Galindo backstage at COI. He does wash it all off as soon as
he can. But you obviously have not been backstage at COI or any other
pro show. Skaters have to make their way through a phalanx of
well-wishers, photographers, reporters, sponsors, management, crew,
other skaters, and the family dog. It takes a while to get to the
dressing rooms, and quite obviously, that photo of Galindo was taken
immediately at the conclusion of the show, before he had a chance to change.

Once again, just drop it. You're wrong. Accept it.

Actually, by that time, David Bowie WASN'T wearing makeup anymore...he had
entered that Thin White Duke period of his career. Now, the early
'70s...back then he was so glammed up he didn't look like the same person.
I remember Freddie Mercury from Queen used to paint his nails black. And I
also remember the hoopla when, of all people, Daryl Hall and John Oates
appeared on the cover of one of their early albums (before they were
terribly famous) wearing makeup on the dictates of some ill-advised art
director...and of course everyone thought "Ooh, they're lovers!" (sheesh)

Same here. I was a teenager in the early-to-mid 90's, when obviously
hair bands had gone out of style, but I am a singer (light opera
mainly) and the truth is, nearly *all* performers wear makeup. I
hardly ever wear makeup offstage. But in every production I've ever
done, the entire cast paints up, regardless of sex. The only
exception is a gig or a concert, when the audience is primarily there
for the music, not the visual. Performers (skaters included) who
don't wear makeup look like ghosts under bright lights.

How do you get your grocery shopping done? Once you step out of the house, ugly people crop up all over the place.
And even inside, they have been known to pop up unexpectedly on television.

Male wearers of makeup?

John Wayne.....

You know, Ronald Reagan always insisted that he never wore makeup when he
was making movies. Don't know how true that is. But according to him his
coloring was such that he didn't need it.

I've also read that Nathan Lane does not wear make up onstage, mainly
because he sweats so much it ends up coming off any way.

IIRC, he still wore a little eyeliner in the 1980s. And I'm sure
he used light-colored makeup to attain some of that unnaturally
pale look. I'll have to dig out some old tapes (yes, I do have
tapes that don't have any skating on them).

Here's an idea-- how about Rudy doing Ziggy Stardust on ice? That
would be cool.

I seem to recall Elvis doing Tanja Szewczenko a while back. Something of a
fox and the lady is not a half bad skater either; bronze at 94 Worlds if I
remember right. For those of us that prefer ladies, skating is a target-rich
environment; always has been.

Talking about doing Tanja Szewczenko, she was not too overprotective about
her body. I enjoyed her Playboy pictures much more than those of Katerina
Witt.
I don't know if Elvis really did her, but assuming they were involved, and
this is at least what gossips were saying, they probably did some kind of
activities together. Maybe watching family photos or reading poetry...

Not everyone in the world gets married. Outside the trailer park,
most people get married after they have completed their education, and
have lived an adult life for several years. Busy people who travel a
great deal may not feel that it is the right time in their lives for
marriage. there is more to life than marriage. What you really want
to know is whether or not they are gay because you have some queer
obsession with that subject. I don't care what they "are', I just
like to watch them skate. I am sure that there is a KKK board
somewhere that would work better for you. Hitler also was intollerant
towards gays. Perhaps you would make a good nazi.

My husband was 34 when we got marrried (never been married before). It was
a career and life choice. He waited until he was ready and found the right
person. Nothing wrong with that.

As far as Todd and Elvis go, they have very busy and stressful careers. I
doubt there is much time for mate-finding yet.

Anyway, it is their choice regardless.

I feel the same way. Some guys look downright creepy in makeup. I can

Who is questioning it? We're ridiculing you. Quite a difference. And
since you can't tell the difference, small wonder you are open to
ridicule about your so-called college education.

And when I'm "ridiculed" expect that I WILL defend myself with facts.
You said I bought my degree online. I am giving you the facts that I
did not. What do you expect me do, say nothing? Just let you
"ridicule" me with your shit for other people to believe? I can
"ridicule" *you* just as well bitch, fag, whatever the hell you are.
Did that feel good? If I am so "boring", why do you add fuel to my
fire? If I was so "boring", you'd just plonk me, wouldn't you? When
you keep egging me on, you keep *me* going on, which is boring for
everyone else. Do you really want to do this?

One more thing. Ridicule does not work if it is not based on facts.
Now, if I really did order a degree online, then yeah, that would be
fair game for ridicule. But I didn't, so it's not. It's like you
told me I was 300 pounds, toothless and bald headed. So I show you
picture of me to prove I'm not. You say you don't care, that you were
just "ridiculing" me. But it's not funny, because there's no truth to
it. My advice to you is: Stop ridiculing people. You're not good at
it.

I remember you and Trudi were duking it out (something to do with you
leaving the newsgroup during Olympics because you can't stand the
smell of the newbies). You have a penchant for continuing on and on
and on and on long after you've been taken apart, and then some. If
you want to keep stabbing this dead body over and over and over again,
go ahead. I'm through with you. You are just a flamer and not a very
good one at that.

Har! Imagine that. Plonked TWICE by a troll. Who'dve thunk it.

Since when were facts relevant for ridicule?

I don't know about her weight or hair, but she has quite sharp fangs. And
she knows judo, or something.

Heh heh. You *are* new here. She has a Black Belt in Ridicule.

This is Usenet. Lots of folks duke it out with a lot of other folks.

Actually, she's more efficient than prodigious. Kind of like a cheetah
attacking a wildebeast.

No comment. :^)

14) How can I report cases of Usenet abuse from people posting through
Google Groups?

Send a message to groups...@google.com describing the offense. Please
note, in order to investigate reports of abuse you must include the full
header of the offending post.

Google does not regularly monitor or censor messages posted to Usenet
through Google Groups, but we do attempt to prevent wide-scale spamming and
other forms of Usenet abuse. While we appreciate how annoying off-topic
posts can be, we are not able to pursue most of the complaints we receive
about them. Unless the case involves numerous repeat offenses or posting of
someone's personal information (credit card or social security numbers), we
have found it much more effective for the members of the group to express
their displeasure directly to the spammer. You can contact the individual
directly through his or her email address or by replying to the post within
the group.

A couple of her words may qualify as obscene, but I'm sure a report based on
that post would have the folks at Google ROFL. Besides, I think Cynthia was
more inaccurate than obscene - Kaiju is neither a fag nor a bitch, although
she has been known to get a bit snippy on occasion. I'm sure she is more
amused than offended by Cynthia. Some posters are worth reporting for abuse,
and some are not. The choice is yours.

Heaven knows I'm buckled over laughing. Maybe I should report lil'
Cynthia Marie for causing physical injuries? My poor back...

Heheh... You got that right. I haven't had this much fun in months.
Folks around here have been so honorable, proper and pristine, I haven't
had adequate outlets for my assigned rssif slicing and dicing duties.

Please don't discourage lil Cynthia Marie from posting. She/He/It
provides comedic relief around these here parts.
