    “Internet is often used by people who have no other means of making friends.

    Don’t worry. Online threats are often idle and used for intimidation. Anyone can hide behind a computer screen-if somebody anonymous is making violent threats, for example-they would’ve carried them through by now if they were going to happen. If threats get more violent after ignoring them, the ‘stalker’ is basically having a tantrum because they’re losing control over you. If they get aggressive because you disagree with them, they don’t have the intelligence to argue fairly. It never hurts to be aware, but most internet stalkers are pathetic individuals who hide behind a computer screen to feel powerful.”

    Touché.

  2. I’ve never really followed test cricket and my knowledge of the game is restricted to the days when I lolled in a deckchair watching the boyfriend of the day playing on the village green. So i was puzzled to find myself disproportionately upset by the news of the death of Phillip Hughes.

    Paul Hayward’s eloquent obituary in The Daily Telegraph goes a long way to helping me understand why.

  3. I have never watched cricket and know nothing about the game, but I was also quite upset by the death of this young man. I think when someone so young dies in this way, due to some freak accident in a sport, it just tears at your heart. A young man with his whole life ahead of him, someone who was loved and respected by all who knew him. It’s a tragedy.

  4. Fellow 14 Major winner Tiger Woods shot a career worst round of 85 yesterday. Maybe him and Rafa can do a group session with a shrink.
