A little off topic - -

Apparently, if one has celebrity status, (aka American Royalty) little things like a 3rd DWI arrest mean very little when it comes to crime & punishment

Torn's CT DWI arrest will be removed from his driving record in one year after he completes a driver safety course. Due to some loopholes in CT law, his first two DWIs don't count.

More bad news - we live 8 miles from the guy.
