just like bubba clinton, the trash that keeps on giving...

[DakotaRed]

Too much of a Drama Queen for me to pay attention to. I live right here in the same town with her and so far, haven't run into her. If I did, sorry, I can't see me becoming impressed.

Does Chris still have his kneecaps?

Tonya Harding took a stick
and gave to Nancy 20 licks,

And when her hubby became a bore,
she gave to him many more!

After bombing Olympic trials,
Tears and wails replaced her smiles.

She tried her hand in Playboy role
But no one liked her centerfold

So back to trailer park she'd dash
where she'd fight and drink with her white trash!

Tonya Harding? Oh, my! Is she still in the news? And if so, why?

If the phrase "Trailer Trash" didn't exist before Tonya Harding, it would have had to be invented.

[Luddite Patent Counsel]

...stay away from Harding and to avoid alcohol.

Words for all of us to live by.

[b4its2late]

She probably beat the snot out of him.

[God luvs America]

Tonya should just do porn...

[reagan_fanatic]

For God's sake, Tonya - put down the HoHo's and look in the @#$* mirror for once...

[azhenfud]

Hardin was overheard to have said, "I'll break your knee with my shoestring."

This brings to mind many questions and sadness about some girls and women I've known over the years.

I've never understood the pathology behind women repeatedly seeking out men who abuse them. You hear stories about women who go back to the men who beat them, and if they leave, find other men who mistreat them.

I've got an acquaintance who's in jail right now. She's there on drug charges, and I found out accidentally that she's desperately trying to get back together with the man who used to supply her with drugs, and beat the crap out of her. While she's in jail, he's in state prison, and will be there for at least another 3 years. I was shocked when I found out that the guy who badly beat her, and then had her arrested on domestic violence charges was a person that she loves dearly. A few days later, the judge threw out the charges, and reprimanded the officers, when she produced photos I took of the bruises on her face, chest, legs, and back. The guy had a scratch on his face, and that was enough for the police to arrest HER. And this is the guy she loves.

I just don't understand it.

Tanya Harding is (or was) an attractive, extremely talented athlete who threw it all away. Over and over again, we've heard stories of the guys she's chosen to share her life with. While it's easy to make jokes about it, it's an illustration of the sort of thing that's all too common.

Bump for later.

Tonya Harding tussled in her home with a man she described as her boyfriend...

So that's what they call it nowadays.

The 27-year-old Nolan was trying out for the '05 Darwin Awards.

Sorry! You lose! Next contestant!

I was in Portland about 6 years ago on business and happened to catch Harding on a local version of the morning talk shows (perhaps it was "Good Morning Portland"). Harding was elegantly attired, appeared attractive and spoke reasonably well. I thought - jeez, she's got an image consultant at last. Apparently not. She is heading for an unfortunate end, in prison, killed in a skirmish like this one, or something equally bad. I usually can see humor in just about anything - but she is simply pathetic.

[Slings and Arrows]

Wouldn't hit it with a lead pipe.

(Thanks to day10 for the ping.)

[Revolting cat!]

Tonya looks hot! Wow! You say she's into leather? Anyone know how I could get in touch (pun intended) with her?

[festus]

There gonna be a video of this too ?
