Where's the picture of the little girl?  I think they accidentally utilized a picture of a young Geddy Lee.

Sure it would be.  I'm sure this has never happened in the past because it surely would have made the news... right?

I just thought it was a bit weird. I mean surely you'd realise she was 12?

At least make an attempt not to be a salamander, Eagler. I think if I was going to slam the US military (of which the guy is no longer a part, by the way), I wouldn't be looking at a possible internet abduction case.

The latest news is that she flew from Paris to Liverpool, England alone, so the guy looks like he did realise afterall. Although he met her in Manchester, England before heading to France...

You're talking like you're young dowding.  As you get older, it does get more difficult to distinguish age.  Some look like kids... others don't.  I imagine that gent eventually stumbled on something that clearly indicated her age (you can hide it for a bit... but not for long).

Of course, its nice to see people around the world assume the worst.

Yeeesh, so how did that sad story end?

Y' know, I have a hard time convincing Americans that the British dental system isn't as bad as they make out - and then this picture pops up on the news.

She's what my yank producer calls a 'hand grenade' - the girl you hope your buddy jumps on for the good of everybody else.

He married her then found out the kid wasn't his.  They instantly put the child up for adoption after it was born and he treated her like **** the rest of the time I knew him.

Sad thing is... this isn't an unusual story in the military.

"A senior British official said the case added urgency to legislation intended to outlaw cultivating sexual contacts over the Internet."

What?  The Brits want to outlaw chatting up girls over the Internet?

Damn for a minute I thought she was a he then I read the headline again. Poor jarhead; I really hope he has figured it out by now and thought "WTF am I doing flying around with something looking like this."; then bailed on her and is flying on around the world hoping this will all blow over soon.
