The Politics of Stupidity
“Stupidity is the devil. Look in the eye of a chicken and you’ll know. It’s the most horrifying, cannibalistic, and nightmarish creature in this world.” ~Werner Herzog
Many years ago, I was sitting in my car, waiting to make a right turn. A disheveled man on a bicycle came toward me, and I could see in the distance that he was yelling. As he rode past my car, I saw that he was literally foaming at the mouth. “I hate niggers!” he screamed, spitting some foam.
I have never forgotten this incident. The image is embedded in my brain. It’s hard to describe how it made me feel. It shook me to the core. It was an encounter with fierce, virulent stupidity. It was like staring into the eye of a murderous chicken.
Yesterday, I was confronted again by that chicken, and it was horrifying. I thought we all agreed on basic laws of human decency. How could I forget that frothing bigot?
I don’t believe in censorship but I am against “hate speech.” I love a rousing debate or an exchange of ideas, but I’m not a martyr. I don’t mind insults, even nasty ones, but I’m not here to soak up the free-floating rage of the mentally unhinged. Who would ever think that mocking a spoiled rich kid would invoke an avalanche of crazed taunts about my worthlessness as a human being?
This reign of terror was launched on facebook by a self-avowed friend of the Aldridge women. This friend can’t stop firing off comments along the lines of “You have sand in your cunt LOL LOL, come shop at my store any time!” Today, she’s still at it. Karen Aldridge has been firing off her own brand of histrionic garbage.
I admit that these women scare me. I haven’t been exposed to this level of vindictiveness or indecency. It reminds me of prison stories where the inmates are reduced to throwing their own feces to express themselves. It’s not okay. I would like the good citizens of Texas to get back to whatever they were doing, and to let the Aldridge women fight their own war of words with me.
I did say that Jane’s face is fat. However, it does not rate as an attack worthy of the ones I received last night, to the tune of: “I sucked your son’s cock in hell!” and “I’m glad your kid died.”
Stupidity is a funny thing. At one level, it can be amusing. Max loved to watch Sean Hannity on Fox News during the last presidential election. He chuckled each time Hannity pretended to be making a point. Personally, I love the New York Housewives for good basic stupidity.
But the stupidity of these pro-Aldridge people is another matter. It is the devil. And I’m not letting the devil have his say here. I will publish any and all comments that respect my right not to be taunted about my private parts or the loss of my precious child.
That shouldn’t be too hard, right, chickens? For those people complaining that it used to be more fun here, I can only say, No shit, Sherlock. But we’ll still have fun again. I will, anyway.

The level of vitriol was shocking, to say the least. I am so sorry that you have to deal with such insanity, daily.
Things will be back to normal, Conspicuous consumption of the ridiculous will be mocked, and the haters will tire of not winning.
August 7th, 2010 at 8:16 pm
I love you. I won’t mess it up with more words.
August 7th, 2010 at 8:34 pm
Right on Sister Wolf.
Goddammit, I’m Mad! Honestly, the level of poison being spouted yesterday left me feeling sick. I understand being angry and being defensive, hell, I’m usually angry all the time, but yesterday’s comments were just made of evil. They served no point, and I was just so angry that people thought it was okay, and funny to say the shit they said. You stay strong, there are still those of us who believe in you and your right to express yourself how you want to, and also your right to be treated with human decency. I’m disgusted with the kind of parasites that came out yesterday, and I do hope they go away soon.
Stay strong, I wish there was something I could say to maybe make you forget the pure shit that was spouted yesterday. *eHugs* That’s the best I can do.

I was stunned, i have not lead a protected life, but i couldn’t believe the things that were being said.
Take care of your self Sister Wolf.
XXX.
August 7th, 2010 at 8:43 pm
On reading back I actually think that not publishing their comments is the only way to go. It just sucks that you will still have see them. Im so sorry for you that this is happening, I cant imagine anything could be worse than loosing a child.
“Psychopathy is a personality disorder characterized by an abnormal lack of empathy combined with strongly amoral conduct, masked by an ability to appear outwardly normal.”
Maybe it helps to remember they actually ARE mental cases?
August 7th, 2010 at 8:57 pm
Good for you!! I actually had to stop reading those comments they were so painful and they weren’t even directed at me – I am so sorry you had to go through this.
August 7th, 2010 at 9:12 pm
SW – What was said to you yesterday (continuing into today) was horrifying and disgusting. I’m not sure if it helps knowing that it was coming from people who are obviously unstable; I was frightened by these individuals myself. I am so sorry that you have to deal with them. It may not mean much, coming from complete strangers, but please know that we’re all here, standing behind you (I’ll bring my Boom Stick, if necessary).
August 7th, 2010 at 9:14 pm
reminds me of that scene in Cold Mountain when renee zelwegger’s character breaks the feared chicken’s neck, easy as pie.
that scene is renee zelwegger’s entire career, in my opinion.
August 7th, 2010 at 9:28 pm
fuck ‘em man. fuck the lot of ‘em.
August 7th, 2010 at 9:40 pm
I’m hardly ever shocked. What I read yesterday was shocking.
I hope that the Aldridge cabal woke up this morning, examined their actions in the cold, harsh light of day and felt deeply ashamed of themselves. I hope that’s what they did…but I doubt it. They’re probably hoping to be rewarded Texas-style for their loyalty. Maybe they’ll receive an invitation to lunch. Maybe their store will get a positive mention on a blog. Meanwhile, they’ve compromised their humanity and behaved like a pack of deranged animals high on blood.
And what was the reason for their attack? I guess they wanted to let it be known that they would let nothing or no one come between a Dallas gal and her love of shoes.
The saddest part of all is that people like that actually exist.
August 7th, 2010 at 9:41 pm
I am confused, I went to the facebook site you linked in your blog and it must be a mistake because Dolly Python has no mention of you on her page. You mentioned she had launched a “reign of terror on facebook” is there perhaps another site you are talking about and if so can you give the link?
Secondly as a psychiatric Nurse, I wonder was the disheveled man who yelled racist obscenities mentally ill. I have looked after so many schizophrenics who have persecutory fantasies about other races or religions who have disinhibited behavior who go around yelling about different races or religions.
August 7th, 2010 at 9:55 pm
Fiona – She deleted it. I was alerted by a reader, yesterday. And of course the man was mentally ill, as is the Dolly Python person and her posse.
August 7th, 2010 at 9:57 pm
Greg – Why did god make them? Or maybe the question is, why did god let somebody mess them up so badly?
August 7th, 2010 at 10:14 pm
I am horrified by those comments you received.
August 7th, 2010 at 10:25 pm
Those people lack boundaries. You’ve never said anything even a fraction as horrible about SOS as those ‘tards yesterday spewed at you. They should be ashamed of themselves for saying such evil things. As I mentioned yesterday, Sea and Mom can stand up for themselves. Those fools with their hateful insults are wasting their energy getting mad and thinking up vindictive garbage. Why don’t they just NOT COME HERE if they don’t like it so much?
I’m behind you SW!!
August 7th, 2010 at 11:14 pm
Jesus Christ, those people. Maybe if they took their heads out of their asses and saw the daylight for once, they would get over themselves and learn what satire is.
What I find laughingly stupid is the fact that these Shoes people pretend to be above it all, and subsequently, “classy”, because they don’t engage SIster Wolf. Yet, they don’t even have the tact and decency to restrain their moronic, mindless followers who spout base vitriol like “I sucked your son’s cock in hell!” and “I’m glad your kid died.” That they engage in this themselves just proves that these people are not very good people at all.
I bleed sarcasm, and I’m crazy, and have very dark sense of humor, but those comments from yesterday don’t make me laugh. They fill me with a deep disappointment that this kind of inhuman behavior still thrives amongst the allegedly “cultured”.
Seriously? Mom of Shoes and Sea of Shoes fucking put themselves on display for the entire Internet to see. Not everyone is going to be an admirer of their “curating”, so they should grow a fucking pair, and learn to be civil if they can’t muster the brain power to formulate an intelligent and witty comebacks. Otherwise, you are free to leave the Internet anytime you want.
I can’t believe we are actually having this discussion. My heart goes out to you Sister Wolf. Keep doing what you’re doing, and don’t let anyone tell you otherwise!
August 7th, 2010 at 11:17 pm
I take back what I said yesterday about moderation and comment-editing. These people seem to have lost it COMPLETELY- I don’t give a shit about what they spend or sell, it’s their money and I’m sure the economy needs a boost -but calling your son names because (as far as I can tell) you and other commenters criticised someone’s cockroach necklace? Have they so little perspective, and such thin skins? Or are they too cowardly to fight their own battles? (which, by the way, can be done with civility and decency if they so choose, which they seem not to have done- and that is understating it).
PS: Please don’t be afraid, Sister. Trolls shouldn’t scare you or make you doubt yourself, and especially not these piddly specimens. I don’t intend to say that your worries are trivial, but these creatures are really not worth it.
August 7th, 2010 at 11:54 pm
Ah, the 2012 election is on its way!! I MUST get that satellite dish because Fox is not included in my cable package and the election experience won’t be the same without it.
Speaking of private parts, I just fell in love a little. They don’t make girls like this one in Texas:

August 8th, 2010 at 12:05 am
Whoa, I didn’t see all those hundreds of comments the other day. As I said, I think people who troll internet forums and blog comment sections are psychologically disturbed as best told in this New York Times story, which I recommend to everyone who has to deal with such issues: http://www.nytimes.com/2008/08/03/magazine/03trolls-t.html
Giving them any kind of attention encourages such people. I think it’s a great idea to moderate comments, delete trollish ones, and ban IP addresses. Don’t waste any time on mentally ill predators.
August 8th, 2010 at 12:06 am
I don’t like that you’re censoring comments but I also don’t like when crazy people go on the computer and write such hateful comments. I’m surprised you let it get so far SW and I wish you the best.
Now how about that Alec Baldwin rant you’ve been promising? Time to get back to railing on the celebrities we see on TV!
August 8th, 2010 at 12:13 am
It’s usually pretty amusing when people, in expressing their anger at someone’s “hateful” views, end up spouting crap that is much more hateful, harmful and downright inhumane than whatever they were originally protesting. THIS, however, was just revolting. Poking fun at someone (who, frankly, is asking to be poked fun at) on your own personal blog is one thing. Taking the trouble to find someone’s blog, determine their most sensitive point and then spew up a whole load of hateful bile, knowing it will really tear open unhealed wounds, is totally another. And all to defend a spoilt rich kid who can’t laugh at herself.
For all your resilience, Sister, you have a right to feel disgusted. I know I do, and none of it was directed at me.
August 8th, 2010 at 12:14 am
I, too, was rather appalled at the the whole frenzy. What was most disturbing was not the words they used – really, only nasty children use that kind of language and still think they’re being witty – but their dangerous lack of perspective.
August 8th, 2010 at 12:27 am
J. Aldridge, Dolly Python, et al. have certainly shown beyond all doubt that money cannot buy class.
August 8th, 2010 at 12:43 am
I’m horrified beyond measure.
And like everyone else will be going exactly nowhere, and will still be here when the fun kicks off again.
xx
August 8th, 2010 at 12:57 am
Elaine – So: You don’t like me to censor comments but you’re surprised I let it go so far? I don’t see how I can win with you! But I let it go on in the mistaken belief that I am fair game to mock and/or criticize, since I do so much of it myself.
I was so astounded by the barrage of abuse that I didn’t know how to handle it without giving up on free discourse. In the end, I decided that abuse is not discourse.
I’ll get to Alec Baldwin, don’t worry.
August 8th, 2010 at 12:59 am
CCS – AMEN.
August 8th, 2010 at 1:37 am
Thank goodness you’ve put a stop to it. I completely applaud you thinking that good would triumph but the abuse was so vile and so disgusting. I actually retract any sense of common decency I might have held towards the Aldridges on the basis of good manners. The fact they did nothing to put a stop to it or extend any empathy – it gave Jane the opportunity to state she’d suffered the same, hence her decision to remove comments? Who knows anything would have made for a break through in human decency.
And I don’t think for one minute that they didn’t know.
Good for you for protecting your being. Abuse most certainly isn’t discourse. And whilst Fiona may have a point, my sister is a schizophrenic and although she has had many episodes of severe psychotic paranoia over a 20 year period, she has never uttered racist abuse whether on colour or creed. That I’m afraid is a product of ignorance or learnt behaviour. Also she has never uttered vile words or specific accusations in relation to a person – again that is nothing to do with mental illness. They are just down right evil and nasty.
I’m so glad you’ve put a stop to it and yes please ref Alex Baldwin can’t wait! We had to put up with his brother on UK tv and he was really odd.
August 8th, 2010 at 1:52 am
This is truly ridiculous! What are these idiots thinking?Are we adults or bitchy tweens?Sea and mum have absolutely NO grasp on reality. That IS A FACT!!!!!! Anybody that reads their blogs knows that these 2 women are not living the lives of normal people. Curating?winning?shit on ebay, parading around in other peoples offcasts and claiming them to be pieces of art????Pieces of crap is more like it. The “piece” for me was of course the cockroach. What a big load of bullshit! Get real ladies,if you didn’t have 2 cents to rub together and had to work for all this crap you are curating then you may have some form of grasp on reality. Sister you should just laugh all this crap off. What you are going through is REAL,it hurts and it’s fucked but at least when your life comes to a close you will know that you felt and loved and hurt and it was all worth it. These knuckleheads will have storage sheds full of replica insect jewels and ugly clothes that nobody wants to win from ebay.
August 8th, 2010 at 2:09 am
the stuff that was coming out yesterday was just shocking. I guess this is the worst of the internet’s many gifts – giving ppl an outlet to indulge in the vile and the violent under the cloak of anonymity.
there is just no use in trying to engage with this kind of violent stupidity. As a muslim, who wears hijab, I have dealt with plenty of it, both IRL and online. At the bottom end of the scale, there are the dumbnuts who manage to grunt a barrage of crude insults – they are easily brushed off. But the scarier ones are those who can strung together a few sentences, assume a disguise of reason and rationality, and underneath it all is the most crazed, violent evil ever.
anyway – they’re just not worth it. It was unpleasant to see their total hijacking of this site in the past couple of days, but I know you have the balls to rise above them SW.
‘Murderous chickens’ – ha! I won’t get that image out of my mind.
August 8th, 2010 at 2:10 am
gah, “string” not strung!
August 8th, 2010 at 2:35 am
You are full of win with me SW =)
My last comment wasn’t to call you out on censoring. The trolls kept coming back and the comments got unbelievably dirty. There were one too many that called you a horrible mother and for me, I would have started deleting them after the first one. I understand that you didn’t know how to handle such a sudden freak storm.
I’ll admit I DO miss reading some of the more moronic comments. That and the replies they generated from your readers.
August 8th, 2010 at 2:46 am
i just read through those comments, and i am utterly speechless, and completely horrified. miggs probably said it best, it’s the lack of perspective which is so disturbing.
August 8th, 2010 at 2:53 am
And since I’m still here and I just remembered I had a similar experience with a foaming racist.
I live in Canada and the First Nations people have a long history of abuse from the “white people” I was on the bus and the first thing I see when I get on is a Native women, keeling over because she was drunk and firing off a slew of hate speech at two Asian girls. “You fucking Chinese. You think you’re all that. You fucking ruined this country.” My parents are Chinese immigrants and the first reaction I had was to knock this woman out flat but instead I sat in my seat clenching my fists and wondering why is this happening.The bus driver, who was also Asian, didn’t tell her to get the hell off the bus. Though several people told her to stop talking, she kept attacking the two girls (I’m pretty sure they were international students) who were at the edge of their seats in fear trying to pretend there wasn’t a woman in their faces.
That woman, even if she was drunk, makes me sick to my stomach. A guy got up and yelled at her the things I wanted to say: that she was the reason there’s a stereotype of Native people being dirty lazy drunks and that she was a disgrace to all my friends who are First Nation. Multiculturalism is a joke when there’s minorities ripping apart minorities.
August 8th, 2010 at 2:56 am
I love you, and I’m sorry. xo
August 8th, 2010 at 3:41 am
why are we so cruel. i am so sad for you SW, i am sad for python, ‘for she knows not what she does’. i am sad for humanity. can we not be kind. empathetic. sympathetic. save our hatred for governments and businesses that defraud us. save our hatred for those that are cruel, to fellow human beings and to animals. why that hate? fuck, i can’t bear it any more.
August 8th, 2010 at 4:14 am
CCS is so right. These people are simply trash with cash. I think they just like the attention of being featured on your blog since no one reads theirs.
To even think of mocking the loss of a child is so sick and twisted, they can’t be right in the head. That just isn’t normal behaviour.
I love your blog, and I think Sea and her idiotic mother are simply jealous of all your loyal followers, and the fact that you have the intelligence to write about something other than footwear.
August 8th, 2010 at 4:29 am
i missed everything (can’t say i’m sad), but nothing will keep me from enjoying the company of my pack.
August 8th, 2010 at 4:31 am
we got your back. you do this in good fun, they are resorting to low blows.
August 8th, 2010 at 4:49 am
Sister, no one should have to put up with comments like the ones you received. I can’t imagine that anyone thinks it’s OK to say that shit, even under the guise of anonymity. I felt sick reading it.
August 8th, 2010 at 5:14 am
hey I heard on the internet grapevine that the Aldridge’s are going to sue your ass for defamation and they have the money to do it!!!! Fuck you are screwed, I knew your big mouth would fuck you over in the end
August 8th, 2010 at 5:58 am
I am so glad you’re censoring comments. They don’t deserve to use your blog as a forum for their hatefulness. I think we all can trust that you’ll publish some innocent nuggets of ignorant hilarity for everyone’s enjoyment but honestly, it’s your blog and you can do whatever you want.
I screen all of my comments. For one, the spam filters don’t always work and I’m not allowing myself to be used. Also, I too have been insulted and I refuse to put that nastiness up. You wouldn’t let some creepy salesman or that man on the bike spewing hate into your home. You don’t have to let them on here either.
So sorry you have to read that crap in the first place. It is scary!
August 8th, 2010 at 7:05 am
Frankly, I think Herzog was grossly unfair to the chicken (this is no time to start a rant about factory farming, so I’ll leave it for another occasion) and deranged animals on blood are not even close to the level of insanity displayed here in the last few days. I find the repeated invitations to visit Dolly Python store interjected into the abuse especially disturbing – she comes across as completely unhinged.
August 8th, 2010 at 7:11 am
This is all getting so ridiculous it makes me cringe.
Sea you are a rich, spoilt brat and it’s your fault (and maybe your mum’s) for putting it all on show to see.
SW I used to applaud you for saying the things no one wanted to say and writing about it so well. But even you are getting a bit carried away.
And both Sea’s/SW’s supporters and haters are making me uncomfortable.
Shame what the internet has become. I hope everyone stops or continues until they rip each others’ heads out.
August 8th, 2010 at 7:33 am
Maybe I’m a sycophant, but I have to say, only you could write such a level-headed, eloquent response to the events of the last few days. That’s why I’ll always read your blog. That, and CUNT of the WEEK, and your Refinery Contest entries.
Love,
Marky
August 8th, 2010 at 7:33 am
At first Gretch/Dolly seemed like a normal shopkeeper pissed off at someone mocking their wares, then she seemed to get into the spirit of things (at which point I momentarily warmed to her), then she went completely fucking psycho.
The Aldridges buy expensive clothes, invite designers to create their living spaces, attempt to cultivate quirks and creativity, and affect this veneer of bourgeois ease and sophistication. This whole ugly episode proves that they are complete and utter trash.
Please print that disgusting comment that Judy Aldridge left months ago about Anna Wintour and her period. I think she was trying to ingratiate herself to you at that time. But even then, the comment was so really off- it was disgusting, bitchy and vindictive. I’d love if somehow that comment found its way to the attention of the woman who put her and her daughter in Vogue and sent the whole family off to the Crillion Ball.
August 8th, 2010 at 7:34 am

August 8th, 2010 at 7:36 am
I live in Dallas and know people that know Sea. Her mom is an insufferable cunt in real life, too. Jane is really just a puppet that doesn’t really have a single independent thought. Their life, despite the fact that they have far more money than I could ever dream of, saddens me. I’m so sorry you have to go through all this Sister. I love reading your blog and hope that the insanity calms down.
August 8th, 2010 at 7:42 am
You have been doing the same thing to the Aldridges for over a year and are trying to call it satire? Pshhhhh. YOU’RE INSANE. AND YOU NEED HELP.
August 8th, 2010 at 7:52 am
Gretchen’s gonna redirect your blog to her Dolly Python page, where she welcomes you ALL to come and have your say, free of censorship.
August 8th, 2010 at 7:54 am
I like how all your approved comments now are just those of the asskissers on here who give you a pathetic sense of validation. CHEERS SISTER WOLF, YOU ARE THE GREATEST
August 8th, 2010 at 8:12 am
Alec Baldwin?!?!?!?!?!?!!
August 8th, 2010 at 8:15 am
I don’t get to read everyday so. . .I thought the “Aldridge klan” was the group of women in TX who, along with their daughters, service Warren Jeffs – ha! Silly me. So do they support Sarah Palin too? Mom & Sea seem to be part of a huge movement of women in this country who don’t see the future too clearly if at all. I was with some last nite, very fashiony but they still think Obama is a black Muslim. So I think it’s o.k. if we mock the hell out of them & then inject intelligence at every opportunity. Cuz they need it. Let’s talk more politics.
August 8th, 2010 at 8:33 am
On the upside, those at the source of these attacks have almost certainly discredited their brand.
While this forum doesn’t care about whether Vogue validates its point of view, I have a feeling that they care very much.
But maybe the phone has already stopped ringing, and this blog is the target of their helpless rage. Anyway, I’m glad it has come to a stop.
August 8th, 2010 at 8:35 am
I think the censoring can be overlooked when the comments get that irrationally obscene, and the 2 line trick really tickled me, I think you should keep it up when necessary. It’s like a bucket of cold water over their silly heads.
I’m sorry there are so many vindictive idiots out there with such a perspective deficit.
Keep it up SW, I love your blog.

August 8th, 2010 at 8:56 am
“J. Aldridge, Dolly Python, et al. have certainly shown beyond all doubt that money cannot buy class.”
CCS, that has never rung more true than it has the past couple of days. Anyone with a real measure of class and dignity about them would have ignored the whole bit and gone on counting their money and buying more shoes and roach necklaces…
The things said about Max were so horrible and show a complete lack of basic humanity. I sincerely hope that the Aldridges and Gretchen never have to suffer the pain of that sort of loss.
And I laughed at “murderous chicken.” I’ll have to work that into a conversation at least once a week.
August 8th, 2010 at 9:24 am
I say remove the hate comments and have one post a week with them all on, along with any IP addresses, blog links etc. and name and shame. Bullies should be shown up for just what they are.
August 8th, 2010 at 9:58 am
Werner Herzog is GOD!
The banal world of brainless fashion bloggers deserves to be dissected and destroyed!!
August 8th, 2010 at 10:12 am
Funny you mention the Housewives of NYC, specifically that crazy Kelly -Her tweets are priceless … My guilty pleasure!
I was just thinking that those crazy comments you received would be great Bravo TV fodder, minus all references to your son. : / Al least all the heat stroke provoked venomous commentary that made its way out of my fellow Texas brains could be harnessed into another avenue other than your blog … Then Tide or another advertiser could make money off them & there would be shoes contests, beetle belts shows, throw downs at: Dolly Python, 4510 & Again and Again, Morgan Fairchild would make a showing … Jake Pavelka too! @BravoAndy are you reading this … Dallas is your next Goldmine!
Bet CB would jump at a chance to have the first filming at Korshak! Fashion show with the fab Jan Strimple draped in beetles. Show benefits Dallas SPCA.
Carry on Sister!

Hey SW. I’m reading your blog daily since the last couple of months and this issue with Jane’s fans is getting out of hand. I am surprised that Jane hasn’t posted anything rude about you in her blog, I guess she’s too chicken to do this. But these comments you have received yesterday were surely innapropriate, offending, idiotic and they show that the person that wrote them is lacking of dignity. You only post comments about Sea’s and Sea’s mum style and you call them spoiled brats, which is a fact. You never said anything too offending that would have crossed the lines about them. I cannot understand why is this causing so much hate. I’m afraid of idiots too and I have to deal with many of them unfortunately.
August 8th, 2010 at 10:22 am
Like most people who’ve commented above, I’m really sorry it had to get to this point Sister Wolf. I hate to think what you’ve had to read and how that’s made you feel – it was way below the belt and a completely unwarranted and disproportionate response to a harmless (relatively speaking) ‘comments for Jane’ post. I think the people responsible for the particularly offensive comments are ‘mentally unhinged’ as you say, but knowing that doesn’t give me any comfort. I can only hope that they get back to their curating of crap ASAP and leave you be. I’m pretty confident that you won’t let them silence your voice though – you have far too much sass and spunk for that! Viva La Sister Wolf!
August 8th, 2010 at 10:26 am
Oh, and whoever it was who mentioned the Aldridges suing SW for defamation above – go away and look up the meaning of the word before you go mindlessly bandying it about. As a lawyer, it always gets on my nerves when people use legal terminology (particularly in the context of a threat) when they have no idea what they’re talking about. MORON!
August 8th, 2010 at 10:38 am
I agree with the deleting. This isn’t just stupidity, it is a horrific deliberate cruelty. You are better than these people, and no-one wants to hear what they say. I am here to read what YOU say. I’m just so sorry you have had to put up with all this. It is your blog, you do whatever the hell you like with it, and I’ll keep reading because I think you are FAB.
August 8th, 2010 at 10:52 am
I’ve lurked around and read your blog for an embarrassing amount of time, but this latest… thing deserves a comment. Sincerely: what the fuck is wrong with people? I am extremely sorry for your loss, especially as someone who has gone through the aftermath of suicide myself, and if one thing is clear, these hateful cunts don’t have the emotional depth to even begin to grasp what its like. As for Jane/Judy, every time I venture over to have a look at one of their blogs, I always think about Simone de Beauvoir’s writing about the horrible smallness of women preoccupied with ornamentation and nothing else. And since they haven’t exactly been proving me wrong, I do want to say thank you for continuing your blog despite the attacks. You are hilarious, and thoughtful, and everything those women are not, and the intertubes are all the better for you.
August 8th, 2010 at 10:55 am
SW- Nothing that you have ever said or done could warrant that level of vile behavior.
I dont want to tell you what to do, but I would just stop writing about dumb sea and her dumb mom. The whole reason that she annoys me is because i dont think her blog is worthy of any attention at all. At least not by anyone over the age of 17. If we all just stop talking about her, maybe she will just go away?
Anyway- Once again, you rock. You are strong and smart woman and anyone who has the FN nerve to mention your child is so demented that they should be removed from society one way or another.
August 8th, 2010 at 10:57 am
I’m so happy Annemarie is back!
It would be interesting if the Aldridge Ass Kissers had something semi-intelligent, literate or though provoking to say. But after the 2nd foaming at the mouth, all-caps, bile-filled, psychotic “YOUR OLD” or something even more awful, it gets boring and disturbing. IRL we all “censor” toxic people out of our lives, there’s no reason why we can’t do it on the internet.
Yes, Iron Chic, you’re correct; somebody needs to mock and dissect the banal and shallow.
August 8th, 2010 at 11:08 am
I am so sorry that you had to go through that. Those people are low-class, hateful bigots living in their bubble world of endless money and tasteless jewelry. They have never stepped foot in the real world and it saddens me that they don’t have the slightest idea of what real life is like.
The fact that they personally attacked you, like bullies on the playground, and sunk so low as to insult the memory of your dead son (I am completely sure that they have never lost a child and have no idea of the pain you’re feeling) shows that they are the worst sort of people – ones completely lacking compassion and allowing themselves to get carried away with heckling and abuse.
It’s not about “blindly following Sister Wolf” or any of the less flattering epithets that they’ve thrown at your readers. It’s about seeing the sides – a blogger snidely poking fun of a couple of women who spend ridiculous amounts of money on mountains of tacky things versus a posse of rich, bored housewives spewing out vitriol like “I’m happy your son died”. We don’t need to be anybody’s blind followers to see who’s the greater evil here. Hint: it’s not Sister Wolf.
August 8th, 2010 at 11:11 am
That shit was intense and crazy. Your tenacity and ability to deal with it is admirable.
A friend poignantly noted that you just cannot reason with crazy. It’s a fleeting and headache inducing challenge. You will run around in circles and thoroughly exhaust yourself trying to get a logical point across to someone who has their hands over their ears yelling “LALALA, I can’t hear you!” And then you’re met with shit that doesn’t even make any sense or isn’t relevant to what you’re discussing. Like, sand and genitalia, etc.
I was once confronted by a crazed homeless man while smoking a cigarette with a friend on a stoop. He approached me asking me for drugs. I laughed and replied that I didn’t have any. He proceeded to say “BITCH, you are a LIAR!” My friend was obviously uneasy and wanted to walk off, but for whatever reason I didn’t feel terribly threatened. I knew he was not of right mind, and while it was initially jarring to deal with, I didn’t feel it was right to be pushed out and scared off of somewhere that I was comfortable hanging out at just because of someone’s stupid crazy shit. Eventually he got that I wasn’t interested in playing his game and left, and I stayed put and smoked another cigarette. Moral of the story- stay put, and eventually the crazy will grow tired and bored and get quickly distracted by something rad and shiny.
August 8th, 2010 at 11:13 am
They can’t sue if it’s satirical!
August 8th, 2010 at 11:46 am
I think u are doing well Sister…I hate censorship in a blog, but if people dare to speak about your son and you as a mother in a negative way, the censorship is just necessary. Let´s forget these people, the Sea of shoes team, they are not interesting, even to joke about them, they are terribly boring. Jane is just a dumb spoiled 18 year old girl, I dont blame her about being like she is, she is just a teen, the problem is the evil adults that prowl around her…I think u are quite more interesting and intelligent than them, so just ignore them and dont speak about them here anymore, they just dont deserve, even the bitter jokes are too much for these people, they always get the wrong meaning of irony casue their minds just dont go beyond.
August 8th, 2010 at 12:40 pm
sketch 42 – I couldn’t possibly stop writing about Sea and Mom. Remember: You can’t let the terrorists win!
August 8th, 2010 at 1:31 pm
The things that were written to you were shameful. I think you are such a funny and lucid writer. I love fashion and I like looking at fashion blogs, but quite frankly I think the world of fashion blogging (Roomy, Sea etc) and writing (like the inane articles Grazia) needs to be made fun of. Reminds me of the chapter in William Burroughs The Wild Boys – Le Gran Luxe where he satirises a fictitous group of rich for the trend of wearing clothes that look like they are vomit stained but when you look closer, it’s actually gold thread. Life imitating art with the cockroach thing. Anyhow the point of that was that you inspire me to think. You really make me laugh too. Sorry to see and hear about what happened. xxx
August 8th, 2010 at 1:57 pm
SW..you are a stud. You are honest, that is one of the reasons why I love it here. Sea & Company are sneaky and sick. Whatever you do or don’t do with this blog…I’m in.
August 8th, 2010 at 2:15 pm
Sister, yours is probably the single sane voice which ever reaches the ears of those fuckspittle Aldridge women. Judging by this weekend’s comments, the rest of the time they’re obviously surrounded by a braying pack of human dogs. They should thank you for your input!
August 8th, 2010 at 2:24 pm
Elaine, as an ethnic minority, I like to question where racism comes from. For me, and ethnic debaters friends, it is one of the best ways to comes up with some sort of understanding for the unjust racism that exist in every human. Seeing a stereotype as truth, “she was the reason there’s a stereotype of Native people being dirty, lazy drunks” is no less of a racist feeling than her Chinese immigrant tirade. Often times on the bus I see so many drunken white guys slewing misogynistic rants on top of racist slurs but no one is quick to exclaim, “white people are a bunch of low life drunks” even though European settlers were the ethnic group that brought Alcohol to the United States in the first place. Instead, that singular individual is seen as worthless scum. His entire racial group is not put into question based on his singular act.
This makes me think of Mel Gibson, where as a drunken buffoon, says racist remarks. He has uttered derogatory statements against every ethnic group but for some reason the most upsetting part of his racism, portrayed in the media, is that he is an anti-Semite. Michael Richards, in a non-drunken stupor, recounts explicit historical acts of racism and then wishes it upon guest in his audience but is instantly forgiven in the press. The media is so clearly forgiving because one ethnic group is white and the other is not. Why is it that an American holocaust can take place against indigenous peoples killing 18 million+ yet we know more about a holocaust that took place in another country killing approximately 6 million people. Why is the history of those 6 million individuals more important than the 18 million Indigenous people?
**
Despite some racist sentiments being more minuscule than others, no one is free of the inherent racism that lives in all of us. It comes from a world dominated by the majority culture that has the means to push their belief system on everyone else around. Until we start questioning those ideologies and working against them, racism will never subside.
August 8th, 2010 at 2:43 pm
I wouldn’t change a thing. I don’t want to stay mute in a face of erosion of my(yours, ours, SW’s…) world. Keep on talking, don’t censor. They have nothing good to say, their every word just proves it, it needs to be heard. Why not, let it be war. You set YOUR rules this time a battle away. If you want us to ignore them, well, I guess we’ll have to work harder next time. Choose your weapons, Sister.
There is a pesticide for every pest, this one’s no better than other.
August 8th, 2010 at 3:04 pm
This is where the shit happens, the place where sons die, where the suburban moms show their real faces and where we grow to love a boy for his excellent choice of a lipstick.
There is no need for you to make this blog more pleasant and prettier than it is. I’ll rather look at the real face of things than be entertained.
August 8th, 2010 at 3:05 pm
I read all those disgusting comments but I’m confused?? I thought most of them came from Simone or Simone’s friend’s not the Aldridges. Why is everyone pinning this shit on them when all the bad mother stuff seemed to come from someone who knew Max.
August 8th, 2010 at 3:11 pm
I’ve been away for some time and have just caught up on all your news. I am so sorry to hear about your son, it takes a long time to recover from the loss of a child.
To those vapid individuals complaining about the tone of the blog, have some feelings, SW is in mourning, of course her blog is sadder than before.
To those morons kicking SW while she is down “Get fucked”
August 8th, 2010 at 3:11 pm
Why don’t you tell the truth you lunatic. All the weird stuff that was on Dolly’s FB was posted by someone who suddenly made a new account not by Dolly or ay of her friend’s. So I presume it was one of your friends who did it to make it look like the Aldridges or Dolly, WTF is wrong with you people. Don’t worry I have reported the abuse to FB and the police so whoever did it has a shitstorm coming their way!
August 8th, 2010 at 3:14 pm
Sister, I applaud your decision. they have got absolutely nothing to do with you – to be polite, they were stupendously banal idiots who had less than nothing to offer, not even a bit of wit. I’m surprized that you let them hang around as long as you did. Yo Mama, have you no diginity whatsoever?
August 8th, 2010 at 3:14 pm
The energy of this blog is starting to get very poisenous, and it’s not your fault at all. Honestly, I wouldn’t care if you stopped letting people comment on your blog altogether. I don’t know how I could take all of this terrible hatred if I were you.
August 8th, 2010 at 3:16 pm
Alicia -A few loony comments from “ellie” were from S or her friends. The majority have been from the Gretchen/Dolly person and her pals on facebook. Hundreds, and they are still coming today, from Gretchen/Dolly, screaming about my “bleeding cunt.” The Aldridge women are friends of Gretchen Dolly and could easily put a stop to this.
Also, Alicia, these “people” can read through the archives and read about Max. He has been through so much in the last year.
Why are you so eager to deflect blame from them? Many of the comments are from Judy Aldridge’s sister, just bashing and bashing away.
Get it now?
August 8th, 2010 at 3:24 pm
Seriously, how do you know that the majority of the comments are from Dolly and her friend’s or that any of the hateful stuff came from the Aldridge’s. I’m not defending the hideous crap but just wondering what proof you have, couldn’t the comments be from some crazed fans of SOS. Sorry it’s just my legal training that makes me wary of accusing people without proof
August 8th, 2010 at 3:31 pm
I hope you’ve stopped reading the comments as well Sister. I hope you’ll turn their tap right off.
August 8th, 2010 at 3:32 pm
tayla – Hahahaha. after calling me “you lunatic” you then refer to your legal training?!? Here’s your fake email address taytaty@hotmail.com
I see you and the Dolly contingent are looking for a way to distance themselves now but forget it. Go away now and leave me alone.
August 8th, 2010 at 3:33 pm
I for one will never forget Dolly’s name…
August 8th, 2010 at 3:35 pm
I spend a good bit of time going over all the drama yesterday, and really honestly can say that its been a while since I’ve seen a better example of how the internet can bring out the worst in people. The Alridge clan is failing to see that their continual bad behaviour is giving them a much worse reputation than your sarcastic comments on their lives. The wheel of karma will roll around to them eventually, and they’ll end up getting their just desserts. Love ya SW!
August 8th, 2010 at 3:37 pm
…think this is good press for your store, Dolly Python? Pretty damned stupid conclusion to draw.
August 8th, 2010 at 3:47 pm
HA!!! If tayla has any “legal training” than I’m a future Supreme Court judge!!
“All the weird stuff that was on Dolly’s FB was posted by someone who suddenly made a new account not by Dolly or ay of her friend’s. So I presume it was one of your friends who did it to make it look like the Aldridges or Dolly, WTF is wrong with you people. Don’t worry I have reported the abuse to FB and the police so whoever did it has a shitstorm coming their way!”
AHAHAHAHAA!!! Seriously?? You actually think that ANY of us are anywhere near as insane as you Aldridge/Dolly lot? We have real lives and are psychologically stable to waste time doing anything like that. YOU have reported the abuse to FB, DOLLY/Gretchen?? Stop making shit up. You posted that horrible stuff on FB and your pathetic attempts at trying to blame us for it is, once again, disgusting. You’re a pathetic, sad little worm of a child and should seek some professional help with your psychopathy.
August 8th, 2010 at 4:47 pm
haha those people that left abuse on facebook are screwed if anyone complains. It is so easy to find the identity of a person on Facebook even if it is a fake one and plenty of people have been charged in the last year and successfully convicted for leaving shit on facebook. Somebody should really make a complaint and unmask them for who they really are
August 8th, 2010 at 4:54 pm
How come you won’t publish the truth!!! that the IP’s of the facebook abusers came from California. Does that not fit in with your fantasy or is it more sinister, that you know who did it just so they could stir up trouble and vindicate your abuse of the Aldridges
August 8th, 2010 at 6:00 pm

p.s. I would like to see a Real Housewives of Texas series featuring SeaMom and all her other controlling and vacuous Fashion Friends, with cameos from their kids. That I would watch.
August 8th, 2010 at 6:40 pm
Lol wait I forgot, she’s not a housewife, she’s an entrepreneuse who earns a living from all the hard work and and creativity she has injected into her personal label and/or daughter. Guess that show wouldn’t work then.
August 8th, 2010 at 7:59 pm
I’m laughing at the person spouting out about the Aldridges suing. First of all, what reasonable/sane lawyer isn’t going to look at this case and laugh? And being that Judy’s sister added to the taunting, that simply doesn’t make for a very strong case, now does it?
Second of all, if the Aldridges were really that ridiculous, this “lawsuit” would ensure that they would never grace the pages of Elle, Vogue or any respectable magazine again. I for one would spread the good word to all the nice industry folks I’ve met in passing. Because let’s face it, lawsuits over name calling simply aren’t very “Vogue”. That is if their 15 minutes of fame aren’t already nearing an end (and I have a hunch that they are). Have fun in the Texas society pages, ladies.
August 8th, 2010 at 8:32 pm
The Aldridge are so affected by you SW. it’s really funny.
am sorry about those foul comments on you and max. That’s just really low and stupider than an uneducated moron.
I come to this site because it’s fun and what you say about these bloggers are true. Especially to the mom and sea. Of course when you put yourself out there not everyone has to like you. Sea and mom should know that.
What I don’t understand is why are they fuming over you? You’re not from Vogue magazine that will kill their internet career, you know.
They can have all the shoes they want, They live a high expensive life, why can’t they buy class?
SW i like you. Nothing phony about you. Of course you’re not perfect, you don’t pose for shoots that will make you look ooohhh so perfect, with apron and all, cooking, baking, in the kitchen, as if posing something you are not. You make fun of yourself and other people. That’s cool.
pls people don’t attack max.
August 8th, 2010 at 8:41 pm
It’s not censoring, its self defense.
August 8th, 2010 at 9:10 pm
I am from Texas and I never heard of these people! Bringing Max up is tasteless and needs to stop! I was sick when I read those comments about him!
August 8th, 2010 at 9:16 pm
I have heard that chubby cheeks are a side effect of Bulimia, I hope thats not the case with Jane but it really wouldn’t surprise me if it were. For a spoiled girl I think certain elements in her life must be pretty tough.
August 8th, 2010 at 9:24 pm
Shell – Thanks to you, I see that you can actually find out the location of an IP and most of the attacks are from Texas, mosat of those from Dallas. There are a few from California. What really blew my mind is that a few really savage ones come from North Carolina. A terrible one is from Ireland.
It is nice to know which are which though. Thanks for the heads up, even if you’re from Texas and don’t know what you’re talking about!
August 8th, 2010 at 10:42 pm
After reading through that dreadful thread and looking at your arm wrestling picture, I have come to the following conclusion: Sister Wolf, you’re a true goddess. I’ve been a sporadic commenter at best, but I hope you know that I think you rule, and I mean that with all my heart.
I’m sorry that you had to suffer so many crazy chicken moments. I’ve had one – I was innocently looking at frozen meats in the supermarket when a random employee moving a box of items walked by me and slyly whispered, “Fucking chinks.” I was so shocked that I let him walk by, and then I wasn’t even sure what I really heard anymore, although the whisper echoed in my mind all day, and still does now and then.
I really wish you hadn’t read through the comments, but there is a silver lining to everything. They are really quite hilarious, if you want to think of it that way. All of Sea and Mom’s fans and even close family, apparently, are a bunch of frothing lunatics! And nothing they say or do can change the fact that they are all just dumb, worthless, soulless lumps of crap. You can polish a turd and dress it in vintage YSL and give it a laptop, but it’s still a turd!
August 9th, 2010 at 12:49 am
What the bleeding cunt?!!
The shoe-buying, fortune-burning, vintage-restyling days of the Aldridges, Dolly Python and their mindless flying monkey spammers must be pretty empty.
What fucking cunts.
The shit they said was out of order, dreadful, sickening, awful stuff.
They will never know your strength, intelligence and beauty, Sister Wolf – they are not capable of it.
The reality is they are just dumb arrogant fucks. And I take great comfort in that reality!
August 9th, 2010 at 2:13 am
Wow – that was one hell of a catch-up.
SW – I’m so sorry that you have had to go through all of this. I can’t believe the vitriol that mocking a cockroach pendant can elicit. I hope they wear themselves out soon and leave you alone on Facebook as well. I completely understand why you would cut them off.
Just wanted to say that I find you hilarious. The reason I started reading your blog is because you intelligently unpick all the things about fashion blogs that make me feel a bit queasy and sad.
August 9th, 2010 at 6:51 am
This has all gone freakin’ mental. I can sort of understand Mom of Sea lashing out to protect people abusing her daughter but all that comes to mind is Dina Lohan – if she really did think she was better than you she wouldn’t waste her valuable Mom/Sea time yelling abuse at you, who, tbh, can yell abuse at whoever you want right now. Those people who have said vile stuff to you about Max are inhumanely soul-less and stupid, and although I don’t know you or your motives or anything about you I’m pretty sure who I’m backing here.
August 9th, 2010 at 6:56 am
I do hate to point out, however, that by selecting your comments you’re one step away from what Sea does. Though I doubt Sea gets the same kind of abuse you’ve been getting. Bring them down. Their materialism makes me sick.
August 9th, 2010 at 7:31 am
I’m beginning to hate FB more and more. It seems to bring out the worst in people. Recently some piece of shit I knew 30 something years ago wrote an inappropriate comment on a pic a friend posted of me from the same time period (and I want to kill her for “tagging” me.) I never saw it until a “friend” told me about it. Do you think a single one of my friends defended me? No. I was so hurt, to the point of nearly deleting my account. I mean my kid or mother could have seen that (and what’s worse is the jackhole could only wish it was true) how would the douche feel about someone saying something like that about his mother (no doubt he’s not in a relationship, at least I pray no woman is so desperate to be with such a misogynistic waste of space.) Sometimes I really hate people. Sorry these morons have launched an attack on you — what psychotics to say such things about someone losing their child!

August 9th, 2010 at 8:27 am
Nells/Shell – Hey Gretchen/Dolly, couldn’t come up with more varied, imaginative names? Stop blaming others for what was obviously your and your disturbed cronies’ attempts to deflect blame away from yourselves for your vile and disturbed actions (oh, and it’s YOUR posts and comments that are potentially impeachable, based on MY legal training). Go get professional psychological help. Do not pass “Go”. Do not collect $200. Go directly to your nearest mental health clinic.
August 9th, 2010 at 9:14 am

August 9th, 2010 at 11:26 am
Sadly, I had a similar experience to your disheveled man on a bicycle, except it was a businessman in a suit on 5th Avenue and 44th Street just last week. Which proves they don’t have to look crazy to act crazy, and hate speech can come from the well-dressed, too. All of the horrible and vulgar comments you have received in the past few days are unbelievable, I’m so sorry. Of course you should not publish vicious & brutal verbal attacks.
August 9th, 2010 at 11:44 am
Redhead Fashionista – “I do hate to point out, however, that by selecting your comments you’re one step away from what Sea does.”
No. I’m not. I have just explained what I am doing, as carefully as I can.
August 9th, 2010 at 11:59 am
Jesus Christ. I never said anything negative about your son’s death. I have offered my condolences. (that comment was mysteriously deleted btw). The only comment I think Joanne really took to heart was the one about her hair looking like ’shit’ in person. That seemed to really get her going. I really think the name of this blog should be changed to DAMAGED CUNT
I t
August 9th, 2010 at 12:14 pm
Call this Seg Damaged Control. I mean come on you have been slinging ’shit’ at Sea for the last year 1/2. But that’s ok bc it’s just sarcasm. I think it is incredibly unethical of you to publish someones personal info just bc they disagree with you. If I published a customer’s credit card info just bc they pissed me off I would end up in jail. What is wrong with you? And no I’m not gonna spread this bullshit into any other areas of my life except here. You started it. This ’shit’ belongs on your back yard.
August 9th, 2010 at 12:18 pm
Lick your wounds how you may. Enjoy a little taste of your own medicine. Stop censoring comments.
August 9th, 2010 at 12:29 pm
Gretchen/DOlly – Here’s what’s going to happen.
I’m going to contact all the newpapers and online news sites in Dallas and invite them to see the entire collection of your comments. All of them. Even the ones you wrote under the name of UNCLE JERRY HAS AIDS, because I can document that they were sent by you.
Then, I’ thinking you may decide to leave me alone, in light of the fact that I never mentioned you or even your store in my blog or anywhere else.
Thanks.
August 9th, 2010 at 12:48 pm
These cunts are absolutely ridiculous. Not only that but I’m ashamed that any woman from Texas would act like such trash, actually any woman in general. These heartless bitches need to give up. People are going to criticize no matter what… that’s life. Sea and Mom should know this… if it’s not Sister Wolf giving them a good heckle then it’s gonna be someone else, there are plenty shit talkers out there. Big Fucking Deal! I can’t believe someone would stoop as low down as scum and even dare to bring Max into this. That is such shit! I can’t say I’m surprised though, they do live in the DFW area… where all the yuppie asshole Texans reside.
August 9th, 2010 at 12:52 pm
Joanne, my uncle Jerry really does have aids. It’s been very very hard on me. Thanks for changing damaged cont. Comment To damaged cunt. Any real publication would look at this whole mess and laugh. This whole thing is completely retarded. Crawfish all you like. Go ahead a put together another smear campaign bc your vindictive. that’s brilliant. Real healthy. I’m going to yoga. Try it it helps with anger tremendously. Good bye Joanne and good luck to all of you. Time to move along.
August 9th, 2010 at 1:13 pm
Time to move along Dolly? Damage control. Good timing. Someone threatens you and THEN you move along. What about all your friends that have left horrid comments about SW’s dead son? Will they move along with you? Just wondering.
August 9th, 2010 at 1:13 pm
Gretchen – FINALLY something made sense to you, eh? The part that is “retarded” is……oh, never mind. It is beyond your grasp.
It is well pat time to move along. I am contacted the Dallas news sites right now in another window. I believe your behavior is newsworthy.
August 9th, 2010 at 1:16 pm
vergoncha – thanks for your sanity. I appreciate it.
August 9th, 2010 at 1:33 pm
Oh that’s rich; I just love the above ‘retarded’ comment followed by a misuse of the word ‘your’ and a failure to capitalize or punctuate. Can’t people at least troll in proper English?
The comments here have been truly out of control. There’s a big difference between mocking a blog that exists solely to flaunt an absurdly lavish lifestyle and making personal attacks on someone to the extent of disparaging her deceased son. I wouldn’t blame you if you deleted the hateful comments, SW. There’s no reason you need to put up with that shit on your blog.
August 9th, 2010 at 1:35 pm
Sigh. I have no control over anyones actions except my own. All of this is very tired. Jane did not ask me to do any thing I did it on my own. Same with the others. I just happen to think Joanne is wrong. Why focus on things that make you so angry? Things you cannot control. I asked this from day one and all I’ve received was hateful comments about how stupid I am etc. All of the sudden I’m the ring leader of this crap ’shit’. Which is fine so now she’s mad and wants to destroy me. See she has accomplished nothing but negativity and hate. So we delivered. It’s a whirl pool of vomit. I still think Joanne has a lot of misguided anger and she really gets off on the praise and bashing. There’s no bottom to that hole. Just like in her photos. She’s a beautiful woman but her eyes are sad empty bottomless holes. I’m done now.

our visit yesterday left me weepy and furious. more thoughts and
probably more to say about all of it as well.
finding that picture of m & l at age 8 … what wild, goofy, original boys they were, how well they loved each other. thank you for your kind words.
send me your email, okay? there’s a public-ness to this that i shy
away from. love, randi

Why can’t you keep your word, Gretchen??? Why did you have to post AGAIN?? We don’t care what you have to say, we never have. Please go away and stay away.

Hi Sister Wolf, I think you’ve taken the best approach possible to this.
The pro-Aldridge agenda seems to have been to try and drag your dignity, personal life and son Max’s memory through the mud…
And for what reason? To support rampant consumerism to the point of indecency? To show that materialism has replaced morality?
I think you’re completely right in moderating the repetitive and malicious tirades put forth by these people. Stay strong, Sister, and don’t ever shut up.
Gretchen Bell Python Person – get help and leave already. You have disgraced yourself more than enough…VAPID, MATERIALIST WHORE!

I’m really enjoying the design and layout of your site. It’s a very easy on the eyes which makes it much more enjoyable for me to come here and visit more often. Did you hire out a developer to create your theme? Exceptional work!
