Welcome friends!
It’s old news of course but I would like to just revisit for a moment the tragic death of Mr. Tyler Clementi a few weeks ago. You may recall the sad and rather peculiar story. It seems that Tyler, by all accounts a nice, quiet young man (19 years old), an accomplished musician, and a student at Rutgers University, died after jumping off the George Washington Bridge into the Hudson River. Apparently, Tyler’s college roommate, some kid from New Jersey named Dharun Ravi, had set up a spy cam in Tyler’s bedroom one night when Tyler was having company and broadcast Tyler’s intimate activities to the world over the internet. This bizarre and no doubt entirely unexpected intrusion into his private life seems to have precipitated or at least played a significant role in Tyler’s subsequent decision to kill himself.
Now why in the world would someone set up a spy cam in someone else’s bedroom? ... Sorry but only selected archived (previous year) posts are currently available full text on this website. All posts including this one are available in my annual anthology ebook series available at the Amazon Kindle Bookstore for a nominal fee. Hey, we all need to make a buck somehow, right? If you find my timeless jewels of wisdom amusing or perhaps even amusingly irritating throw me a bone now and then. Thank you my friends!
