“The Steve”

The Case of Tyler Ryans and his Social Networking Fraud

To be completely honest, I was suspicious from the beginning. I saw details popping up in my timeline, read some of his tweets and thought “this seems ‘off’ but I don’t know”. I didn’t get involved but I noticed more and more of my friends getting very emotionally invested in it. I felt bad for the kid if it was true and bad for my friends if it wasn’t.

It wasn’t true.  http://t.co/zpkY2uqh

I’ve been down this path before personally so everyone who this touched personally – you have my sympathy and support. I didn’t get involved and I am not trying to intrude on the issue. I’m just posting this as support for my friends that were. I’m not going to preach about how you should feel or react because I remember when it happened to me, it’s hard to deal with all the emotions. Because frankly – you’re emotionally spent by being involved. I’ve been on the completely clueless and deceived side and the unbelieving and thought to be heartless side of a fake online illness story. Both sides suck! So please, read these articles if you want to know more about this sickness. Maybe next time you’ll spot it before it happens again without doubting someone who is truly sick.

Calling All Country Women – Fan Video

Since there are two Kane shows this weekend and people might want to use their pics from that, I’m extended the deadline to get me pics for the video until Tuesday October 18th. Get ‘em in or let me know what the deal is if you’re going to be late!

Here’s the details again:
