Mike, Just like Lindsay Lohan, Britney Spears, Charlie Sheen, and Tim Tebow, you cannot talk or write about them, even in a negative way. You must ignore them totally. If you can do that, they magically disappear like they were never there. Like some sort of crazy alien creature on Star Trek, they literally obtain their vital sustenance from the attention given them by humans. Without that, they simply cease to exist. Beware, though, once they become aware that they are being ignored, they will engage in the most outrageous behavior in order to regain your attention -- drunken outbursts in public, late night car accidents, slapping cops, even adopting exotic children. One must remain steadfast, however, and studiously ignore them until they, finally, vanish into thin air. :-) Chris --- Christopher D.
