		<description>I think Opri is arrogant and a bigmouth. I don&#039;t blame Larry for not just handing over a large sum of money just because she inflated her bill(In my opinion she did). Larry has to raise little Dannilynn, and has to look out for her interests. Opri should have accepted his offer. Since she didn&#039;t...I hope she gets nothing.</description>

		<description>Isabel:

I&#039;m told here&#039;s the reason Larry went public about Dannielynn&#039;s eye condition: word on the street had it that a tabloid was about to blast off with a crack baby tale of a condition caused by a mother&#039;s addiction, when nothing was farther from the truth. He wanted to get the real story out factually and preempt the hate spin that has ruled the day for so long. 

A doctor diagnosed the baby and Anna knew, but it&#039;s a condition that can be treated, the last resort, surgery. And it doesn&#039;t have to happen for a while. --Art</description>

		<description>Good morning Isabel:

You are right about the Marshall money. Everyone wants it when they have no right to it. EXCEPT....Dannylynn.  The Surpreme Court decided that Anna had the right to fight for HER HUSBAND&#039;s money. After all, Anna was married to Marshall when he died and she kept the name of her husband after he died, which is what most women do when their husband dies. As you know it is the Marshall&#039;s that is trying to avoid the law. That said. I think Anna got plenty from the old man but Anna wanted more. And I bet any woman in the same situation would be doing the same thing.  The fight was on by Anna, via Howard as her attorney before Anna got pregnant with DL and before Larry got custody of his daughter. As executor and attorney , Howard is trying to succeed at what he has to date, failed to do because of the Marshall family resisting. Larry or DL cannot and should not be punished for something Anna did.   THe little girl is being a victim by many  because of what her  her Mom was or did.  As far as Larry. You know that he was trying to get his daughter WAY before Anna died. Larry was the only one, of all of the people that was in Anna&#039;s &quot;do as I say&quot; group, that had the guts to leave because of what he saw and knew what was going on. Anna/Howard had made Larry sign a confidentiality agreement  when Larry got involved with her. That is normal preceedure with famous people. The agreement, if Larry ever talked, I believe was $10 Million Dollars if he ever revealed anything personal. Larry probably did not know what he was getting involved in at the beginning. When Larry left, it was Howard that threatened him to stop giong around saying the baby was his. When Howard went on national TV and claimed the baby belonged to HIM, that is when Larry  decided to go public with the facts of his and Anna&#039;s relationship and indeed the baby was HIS baby.  No confidentiallty agreement stopped Larry from trying to get his daughter from a man that was illegally claiming to be the Dad and from a Mom that was a severe drug addict. Howard or no one else in the clan had the guts to say no to Anna because all involved were receiving perks by being in the clan. Except for Larry, he walked, but he always wanted Anna to stop her drug use for the sake of their baby. Anna was too far gone and all her &quot;friends&quot; were only interested as to what they received by being in the clan.

Larry is doing all possible to make a good life for his daughter and anyone should see that he clearly worships the ground she walks on.  IF ET ir anyone else want to pay him millions for pic or interviews, why not except the offer? DL will always be ANC&#039;s daughter and people will always want to see things about her, including you or you would not be posting things on boards. You would not be watching TV for every glimpse of her and Larry.

Larry is a good looking single guy with a daughter and is taking care of her. That said, he deserves to go out and meet adult people and have a life.   The decision of where he wants to  live is his, not yours or mine. Give the guy a break and stop being so selfish with your feelings. People that are posting negative opinion&#039;s about Larry is only jealous of him...pure jealousy is what is behind the negative posts. 

Isabel, a quesion for you. Would you rather have had DL continue living at the Horizons with a drugged out Anna, as we have seen on meny tapes... and a man that was illegally claiming and knowingly lying  in order to claim another man&#039;s child?  I hope you think about your answer.  

Give Larry his due, he is making a decent life for his daughter and she has an extended family in KY that love&#039;s her also.  And the extended family loves her with no dollar signs in their eyes.</description>

Mr Harris,I was just told,Dannielynn is loseing site in one eye,could you check on that,i am 
------------------------------------------------

I know I am not Mr. Harris, but I would like to say that some people are cross-eyed or have &quot;lazy eyes.&quot;  In my opinion, the press is just fanning the flames to get people upset.

If you read about that condition in the medical dictionary, you will probably stop worrying.

Calling a press conference to tell the world Dannielynn is cross-eyed is just as ridiculous as shouting from the roof tops about Anna&#039;s misdeeds or Howard&#039;s duffle bag.  There is no Opri to blame this time for having a big mouth!</description>

		<description>Louise, I am nowhere near perfect and I judge myself as harshly as I judge others.  I wish I could wave a magic wand and start all over from scratch;  better yet, I would be perfectly happy to never have been.  Knowing all that about myself does not prevent me from realizing when others do dumb things.

Larry&#039;s judgment needs adjustment simply because he has all eyes on him and everyone listing for the Marshall money is salivating in hopes that he will make a mistake so they can grab the coveted baby.

Larry is free to go wherever he wants whenever he wants, but when he does something stupid, Howard will be the one cleaning up the mess for Danielynn&#039;s sake.

I have never heard or seen any outstanding celebrity photographs attributed to him.

Dannielynn could stand to have a caring, loving mother but Larry will probably end up with someone with is as flighty and star struck as he is.  Hopefully, there will always be a decent nanny for Dannielynn to love and guide her.</description>

		<description>Mr. Harris, where are you?

I wandered over to Rosespeaks to see whether anything new was going on and even though I found it difficult to maneuver in a strange territory, one thing was clear.  I was mystified to find that a bogger who was posting here favoring the &quot;ugly side&quot; was there at Rose&#039;s sounding as though she were on Howard&#039;s side.

I really do not understand this deal and wonder whether the person suddenly came to her senses or whether the person is working for both sides.

Why in hell&#039;s name are people doing this to Howard?  I refuse to believe this is brought on by anti-semitism.  I would rather believe these people are a very sick bunch, thrilled to have found a punching ball to let out their lifetime&#039;s frustrations.</description>
