Nina you missed the point, Howard's story does not belong in a national publication. And from the replies I've received you are sorely out numbered in your opinion. Regardless of the story it doesn't belong in EN and the fact that Doyle PAID for the story makes it even worse. I know quite a few people who have had better articles then that in EN and they never received a cent! At worse it should of been edited, at best not published at all. As for Angie not having a last name, give me a break! Maybe we weren't there but quite a few of us know Angie and are totally aware of their "relationship". As for a ileus colic, one of the main causes of a iIeus colic is the lack of water, they stop drinking, their motility decreases with lack of water. Did you read that in your text book? I am not disputing that ANYONE can have a bad day, I am disputing that we don't need this type of trash writing in EN. Camp sex talk, pre-ride sex traditions, slandering people. Nope not in our publication!
