Ummm, she didn't release it (and I don't think she wants your sympathy, either). But what if she had released it? So? If even half of what she claims about Mel's treatment of her is true, the more people that know about it, the safer she'll be. Would you also have no sympathy for a battered wife because, in your opinion, she probably has so little respect for herself that it's her own fault her husband beats her? Shit, if you want to blame her for Mel's self-destruction, at least come up with a better reason than that. At least Mel could point to something visceral like "foriegn bodies" and "tight outfits", although most men would list those firmly in the "Plus" column. As far as her responses to Mel, either she actually IS that calm and collected, OR, she realizes she is recording the conversation and is altering her usual behavior somewhat, OR, she is simply resigned in her responses as one who realizes they are talking to an intractable, threatening psycho would be.

As far as your theory she may have re-recorded her parts... Why would she? What could she have POSSIBLY said that warranted re-recording? "I LOVE showing my tits like a whore, Mel-O! WTF you gonna do about it?!? For all you know, I'm getting trained by brothers every night!" Really?

I used to be a big Mel Gibson fan. I'm disappointed that he's truly a prick and a creep, and that I can't watch his movies the same way any more, if at all. But he destroyed himself. She had nothing to do with it.>> ^griefer_queafer:

Also, I have no sympathy for this woman. By releasing this tape, she is not just showing what kind of a person Gibson is--she is also showing that she has very little respect for herself by dating a person who would say these things to her. Also, I am not even sure how much this kind of thing reveals about the guy. Again, sounds like he is on drugs, or is manic, or both. Plus, from the sound of the audio, I wouldn't be surprised if she re-recorded he responses to Mel, which sound really rehearsed anyway. So... Mel is an ass, but fuck her too.

How long before someone's leaked tirades is called "pulling a Mel"?


I try to pull a Mel at least twice a week.

I honestly tried to give this man the benefit of the doubt on account of his talent. But there's no excuse for this. None.

just as the video is compressed, so is the audio. When your a kid, have you copied an audio tape that was itself a copy of an audio tape? Ditto with VHS, theres a noticeable drop in quality after one copy. After several, the audio just gets warped and then mutates into the sound you hear here.

Audio tape? What year is it?

Quite nice, and reminds me a lot of an 'audio intro' there was on one of the first ever games I played, Avenger on the ZX Spectrum (the space game, 1982, not some other ninja thing that came later). The second side of the audio tape that the game came on was a conversation between the pilot and someone else and it had the same feel.

Oh, and the very start of the music in this, almost identical to 'the anvil of Kron' theme from Conan.

LOL. your right 21 votes for Gunther is a travesty! I laughed so hard the first time I saw that video, I almost thought his persona was real. I wasx quite relived to find out it was a farce done very well.... or maybe I'm just gullible :-)

Gunther getting only 21 votes was the single biggest travesty in sifting history, imo. I might have to correct that with my newly earned promote powers

I have _literally_ done this. But it was a long time ago, so we only got it on audio tape.

I find it amusing/pathetic that the next story immediately after this one is about a new audio tape purportedly released by bin Laden... is CNN also stooping to Neo-Con scare tactics?

Some sexy views of the combat there.. but I do hope there's more to the game than just shooting/listening to audio tapes. That's how Doom 3 (poorly) attempted to copy System Shock. I should think the combat should be occasional, but intense when it happens. If it's constant, no matter how good it works, it'll just get dull.

Have they released much about the other aspects of the game yet?

A true master. I have an audio tape of him and Ella Fitzgerald at Montreux ... just his guitar and her voice.

It was funny to see George Will beaming when talking about CPAC, saying there was "nothing else like it", and then reading Wonkette call it "a Star Trek convention for conservatives".

There's also audio tape of Michelle Malkin swearing like a sailor about the above confrontation here: http://sadlyno.com/archives/5247.html . She's classy.
