perhaps, though that is probably the most mild of online conversations about ms. stokke, that should be removed?

this whole thing has gone too far.

There is nothing inappropriate about that particular thread, but it was locked to head off any escalation. The whole problem here is when people crossed the line and started posting perverted comments and the like on other websites. We don't tolerate that kind of crap here, but unfortunately other sites do.....

Hey guys let me know if you see any pictures that are watermarked with PV Power on any other sites. I saw one on another site. I requested they take it down and I don't know if they ever did, but I submitted a request with Photobucket who was hosting the image and they immediately took it down.

I have the copyright to any of the pictures hosted on this site and I absolutely do not give anyone else permission to use them unless I explicitly say so.

Some people have argued that Allison is making things worse by talking to the reporters and having more stories about her.

I think it is a good thing. People need to know what is going on.

An employee at UW was shot a few months ago by an ex-boyfriend who was stalking her. She told a few people. The authorities at UW knew. And he was still able to walk into her office and shoot her and kill her. Link to Article

We all need to know what is going on because we need to be there to have Allison's back at track meets. I know State is coming up and there is not a whole lot people can do, but outside of that, you guys know who is supposd to be around and who isn't. Anyone who is around Allison needs to be watching out for her.

Absolutely, thats what i said before. She'll be covered at Nike, and i think her dad will be at most meets. From the sounds of it, he might be the best security out there. But we all got your back allison :yes: .

With 24 hours a day of news, they gotta fill it with something. I mean I even saw a bear get tranquilized, fall out of a tree, onto a trampoline and then onto the ground. I only happened to see it in the airport from a track meet, and i couldnt help burst out laughing. half from the fact they airred the story, and half from the fact its a bear falling out of a tree. But theres some really stupid unimportant stuff on there, dont watch it :P.
