good morning! below is the latest cover of people magazine featuring the terrible tragedy in amish country - i don't understand people who can do stuff like that - it's just sick! plus this is the issue with anna nicole's 'wedding' photos - all i can think of when i see them is didn't her son just die 18 days earlier? i know everyone mourns in their own unique way but i just don't get ms. smith - such a bizarre situation - that's all i can really say on it! popbytes over & out for now - xxoo!
THE COVER WAS REMOVED BECAUSE OF THIS - HOW FUCKING LAME - IT WAS JUST THE COVER! (but now i've put it back up!)

I think her lawyer begged her to go through with the fake-wedding so that his paternity claim would have a little more credibility.

Hardly surprising Warners and Time warner are the worst copyright facists! You only have to look at the number of videos they have had pulled from youtube for copyright infringement. Dont they realise you just gave them a whole load of free advertising and anyone can see the stupid cover on the news stands.

Ok, so the magazine's lawyers are paid to search the internet every 20 seconds looking for pictures that they hold the copyright on...how...hitler like. IT'S THE INTERNET, you can go look up horse's humping women or child porn and you can't put up one pic of a cover of a magazine that you can look at at their website...how fucking lame. Popbytes is one of the best blogging sites out there, it's honest, yet funny at the same time...unlike PEOPLE MAGAZINE. They are just mad because you get more readers than they do and they have to resort to selling magazines with the 'exclusive pics'...well i still love you popbytes :), and NICOLAS J. JOLLYMORE, THANK you for being the nazi lawyer that you are...blah on you!
