It's disappointing to realize that someone who was once a friend has become such a jackass. It seems he always was. <br /><br />David,<br /><br />You've put your finger on it, so to speak. It is masturbatory.

I think it upset me so much because he completely trashed what should have been a precious memory for me. You are also dead-on that any attention at all would please him, no matter how uncomplimentary.<br /><br />Maria,<br /><br />Way ahead of you.

You see, we both worried for nothing.<br /><br />Mark,<br /><br />All excellent advice, but at this point I just want to forget this happened. In fact, I want to forget that he exists and if possible, to even muster some compassion for a majorly flawed human being. (I am no saint, though. It may not be possible.)<br /><br />Anonymous,<br /><br />I almost deleted your comment as I am plagued with Anonymous comments, sometimes as many as 25 in one day, advertising porn, Viagra, etc. I think I know who you are, however, and your assessment of both the subject of this post and his father is accurate.

One can only hope that potential publishers will see so much trouble coming from the people he has maligned that they keep well away.<br /><br />If it is ever published, and gets any serious attention, your best bet is probably a letter to a prominent newspaper putting the record straight. If it sinks like a stone, then no problem.<br /><br />A legal case would be very expensive and not at all certain to get the outcome you want. I would think very carefully before going down that route.nickhttp://nickhereandnow.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29674249.post-9609677982917148142012-06-07T05:54:16.999-07:002012-06-07T05:54:16.999-07:00No No re-friend him on FB until you find out if he...No No re-friend him on FB until you find out if he found a publisher or through his sister and then threaten the publisher with breach of privacy. <br /><br />He may have written it, others may have read it but if it is not guaranteed to sell 100,000 copies or so they won't touch it with a threat of legal action pending.

As nearly as I can tell he has trashed every opportunity that has come his way, which is far more than most people get, and is proud of his lifelong insistence on "freedom." He thinks I should be thrilled to be in his book because he said I was beautiful. <br /><br />Paula,<br /><br />My son and brother are both lawyers. It won't help. Too many people I know have already read it and you can't unring a bell. It's really unfair as I am innocent of anything but innocence.<br /><br />But I googled privacy laws and this is what I found: "United States privacy law embodies several different legal concepts. One is the invasion of privacy, a tort based in common law allowing an aggrieved party to bring a lawsuit against an individual who unlawfully intrudes into his or her private affairs, discloses his or her private information, publicizes him or her in a false light, or appropriates his or her name for personal gain.[1] Public figures have less privacy, and this is an evolving area of law as it relates to the media."<br /><br />I would love to hit him with a class-action law suit.heartinsanfranciscohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07535397382991383931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29674249.post-24112440640771937662012-06-05T19:15:36.893-07:002012-06-05T19:15:36.893-07:00So sorry about this, Susan!
