Lance Armstrong and Ashley Olsen??????

[Wahine]

The statement from his now ex-wife was that they experienced way too much in a very short time and that it was an excessive strain on their relationship that neither of them could sustain.

As for Lance being over the hill and grasping at something to make him feel younger...I agree that Lance probably has women that would throw themselves at him, I wouldn't turn down an opportunity to knock his wheel off either (if I was single of course) but Mr. Silver still has a valid point. Lance is an athlete first and foremost and while he is still hot, he is not at the height of his game, nor can he expect to continue to be the same athlete that he was. That is very hard on a person's psyche, losing the thing about yourself that you most connect with your identity.

Kit - you crack me up.

The report is that his wife is who wanted the divorce. Plus Sheryl Crow has nothing bad to say about him. I think she wanted kids & he didn't want any more. (She recently adopted). I have no opinion about his personal life or him personally, but his exes don't bad-mouth him.

Making out in a public place was kinda dumb, but I expect I've been dumb, maybe once.

Southern Belle, I don't think Lance can produce children. after all, it was testicular cancer that he had some years ago. I guess he still might have one of the little guys...

I think he had some of his sperm frozen because he knew he would be sterile.
If he was mute also, he'd be a perfect bed partner. Just kidding Mr. Silver!

Sitting next to Mr. Silver just a laughing and laughing and laughing

Just my $.02 - I'm tired of hearing about Britney, don't like the Olsen twins. Whats up, first it was Britney, Britney, Paris, Britney again and agin, now an Olsen??? I guess its a way to generate some publicity.

Hahahaha!!

And also confirming that he did have his sperm frozen. The 3 children he has with his now ex were all concieved via invitro fertilization. He met and married her afte his cancer treatments were finished.

I never hear anything at all about the Olsen twins except jokes about how skinny they are. I heard a long time ago that they were multi-millionaires before they were 18, and that when they turned 18 they took over their company. I think that's a pretty big thing, and it gives them credibility in my mind. I can't really put them in the same category as Britney and Paris. Unlike B, they don't seem like ****s, and unlike P, they worked for their money.

So what if they party? They're only 21. So what if they make out with guys? They're only 21. Who cares who it is? More power to 'em!

And I my son is into Full House on Nick or wherever it is so I see a lot of episodes (mmm, John Stamos...), and still think they were cute little girls who didn't seem exploited.

1. It's so cool to not only explain what the TDF is over and over, but to consistently impress someone by knowing where France is.

Kit... still laughing... tooooo funny.....

I'm with everyone who has said... control yourself in public (whether you're a celeb or not) although in a club where you expect to see peoples making out is kind've a mitigating factor.

And I think Lance is likely to go through some kind've identity thing too... he has been so dedicated and disciplined for so long - I imagine "forgo-ing" many opportunities for "romance" and now here he is with time and opportunity and wondering who he is now without a team and a tour to guide and fill his every day. I'm gonna cut him some slack...

When I was 11 years old, I was in a bounce house with the Olsen twins, who were 6 at the time. One of them stepped on my wrist and then shot me a dirty look. I can't help but think of that whenever I hear of them.

I guess I should add that I interpreted it as a mean look, but maybe it was just her normal facial expression, who knows. I have no idea which twin it was.

[SouthernBelle]

Yeah, Dogmama,

There's lotsa ways to make babies these days.

True that his kids are all post-cancer.

How cute, a multi-tour champion with a girlfriend who is still in training wheels.

The other night DH and I were having dinner, and at the next table was a running club having their post-run dinner. We couldn't help overhearing a lot of their conversation. The topic of the NYC Marathon came up, which led to Lance, which led you know where. I just about burst out laughing because of how much time we've spent on the topic here.

But really, has it been so long since y'all were in the lustful hormone-driven throes of a new relationship? Well, okay, it HAS been that long for me, but at least I remember it . I don't know why we need to hold public figures to a higher standard than ourselves. If they're happy and not hurting anyone else, more power to them.

Like Wahine, I guess I just have to chime in. When I was married (to a man 20 years older than me), we both endured all kinds of rude comments & assumptions about why we were together. Some of the comments were made innocently, but after the 100th time, still bugged us a little...I mean, what gives? Others were downright snide and hurtful.

I know this thread is discussing all kinds of things, from opinions on everything from celebrity-worship to PDAs, not just the age difference. But, as one who put up with comments from well-meaning family to total strangers, it just gets old.
