Murri,
Please don't tell me that you think a mother would love a daughter more then a son.. Because what you imply here, is that boys are less to mothers because they are boys. Really Murri? I bet you have an explanation for this too and really I'm waiting to hear it.
Don't be so precious Agatha_C.
But I have a rude and sarcastic attitude. The double standard here is amazing, truly amazing.
You know what you wrote. You say something that implies mothers love their daughters more then sons, well because boys are boys (implying they are less). Do you have children and do you say that in front of them?
If I am precious for questioning that, then what does saying it make of you?
I guess my reply to your post is.. No I don't know how a mother like/loves her daughter more, nor do I understand the concept.
Speaking of coincidences, I just found another kidnapping case where a $118,000 ransom was actually paid to secure the hostage's freedom."
Here's another $118,000 ransom. This one is more recent (March 2010) and involved a 5 yr old British boy kidnapped in Pakistan. The boy was released unharmed after a 10 million rupee ($118,000) ransom was paid in "a European country."
"Provincial Law Minister Rana Sanaullah told Reuters an "international gang of kidnappers" was responsible for the abduction of the boy, who is from the English town of Oldham." :waitasec:

"She" because it was "she" who was bing accused by ST of the murder.
'That child' was her beautiful baby girl. Boys are, well, boys.......
JR was probably trying to find something that ST might have been able to relate to as a thing he loved, as I don't believe he had any children himself. I think he wondered if a dog might be more appealing than a child to a single man.
Uuummm, JR, didn't want a dog. His dog didn't mean enough to him to keep it home or to keep it period. So, how could something so meaningless to him be compared to his daughter, Maybe not a big deal to you (and it doesnt have to be) but its a big deal to me. Its telling, because I never compare my children to animals.
If PR lashed out at ST, well I don't blame her after what he said. I think she was downright polite. I'm not sure I wouldn't have hit him, but if she had it would have just proven how violent and dangerous she was. The sort of pain that a person feels on the loss of a child in that way would only be known to another person who had a similar loss. I'm sure she meant him no ill will LOL.
You obviously don't have enough people in your life to argue with.
If that isn't the pot calling the kettle black. And no thats not true I battle this kind of ignorance on a daily basis, with the other people that think its okay to hit out of anger, diminish little boys and compare children to animal.
I tried to find out some more information about this and what the $118,000 amount was, if it represented some money the bank owed him or something similar, but there was nothing else. I wonder if you can find a follow up story about who and why?
Murri, I found another article about this incident. It appears that $150,000 was requested by the kidnappers, but for some reason only $118,000 was delivered to them.

Sorry. (I couldn't resist.)

Agatha! Please don't answer that last post... you are being antagonized. From everything I have read from you, you are above this~ Frigga

I do find several coincidences between this case and Madeleine Mccann´c case
Well, he failed miserably. Indeed, in that whole exchange, JR came off like the Emperor from "Star Wars."
I'm sure you don't. Makes me long for the days when people would settle their disagreements with duels.
I think that's WHY she got so loaded up before the show! Indeed, she seemed to have spent most of her post-crime life in sort of a haze. And I can't help but wonder if it was specifically for that reason. I'm not trying to be cruel to her. I gave that up a long time ago. But I can't not see what my eyes see.
Yeah, I'll BET she didn't! A regular Mother Teresa, she was. I'm sure His Holiness will nominate her for sainthood any day now.
Coincidences?? How?
...rather than coincidences I see similarities....even though the parents were never charged a large amount of people believe they are involved.
Just like the R's the McC's seemed to spend a lot of time talking to the press trying to convince the public of their innocence and both parents did not trust the authorities investigating the cases....
