Heather Mills Talks of Suicide

Heather Mills, ex-wife of Paul McCartney, was on TV this morning talking about how hard her life has been since the news of the split broke, even going so far as contemplating taking her own life so her daughter could then, in her mind, be safe with her father.

Celebrities are real people, and their needs are like ours. Under a microscope, we see their flaws and successes, but we are always keen to point out that underneath it all, we can relate.

Check out the rather shocking Heather Mills crying and suicidal thoughts videos.

Another Universe (Youniverse)

So interesting to see Law and Order have an episode on Virtual Worlds, which they called Another Youniverse (which everyone will misspell as Another Universe when searching for it). This was about, the, well nefarious side of things involving such savory topics as sexsomnia.

Which made us check out if there were any Law and Order groups on Experience Project-- and indeed there were, with "I love Law and Order" leading the pack in activity...
