Handsome and magnetic???

The last few comments about being beaten in jail were interesting. One of the guys who helped me move said Igor was getting his sh** kicked in the Don. A lot of guys in there had gotten their bikes ripped off...
I noticed the Star's apparent crush on Igor as well ... I don't know where they're going with articles like that, which can obviously be so easily torn to shreds. There was a (modest proposal-esque?) article on him in one of the free dailies as well. People were all over that in the online comments.

It's stories like this though that make me acutely aware of how much crap gets published in the press, either through a complete misrepresentation of the facts or with ridiculous devil's advocate articles that are probably just printed to bait more people into reading (in anger) to see what inflamatory tripe gets printed next. I rank these latest articles right up there with a common forum troll.
