Lie Expert Opinion on Lance Armstrong

/20 Comments/in /by

Look at the face of Lance Armstrong in his interview with Oprah last night.  Do you see a man who is upset and hurting that he  viciously bullied people and treated not only his friends and teammates pathetically, but he lied to the world?  Does his face show any regret?

While I would never rely on a still shot to tell me the whole story, Lance has no problem cracking a smile through his entire interview, and worse, he didn’t show an ounce of sadness or regret the entire time. Instead he flashes contempt several times over.  Watch this clip.

Yeah sure, Lance sat down with Oprah and decided to state the obvious for which he could no longer deny to any sane person, but was he sorry for what he did?  I don’t believe so.  Was he sorry he got caught and is paying the ultimate price?  I believe so.

Lance seems actually pleased with what he could pull of, if you ask me.  He is still arrogant, which is one of my biggest indicators someone a high propensity to lie.  He is nowhere near humble–even with all he has been through–which is shocking if you ask me.

And worse, I has highly disturbed that Lance admitted in so many words that he lacked a conscience. When he was asked if he ever felt wrong about what he did, he said no.  When he was asked if he ever felt bad about it, he replied no–scarier.  When Oprah asked did you ever feel like you were cheating?  He said no — scariest.  Yes, this is very scary as he should feel differently now, but clearly his emotions support that he feels the exact same way as he always did. He feels no guilt, shame or regret.  That’s chilling!

While Lance said some of the right words, he also was still notably evasive and refused to discuss certain topics or people.  When someone comes clean — all the way clean — they don’t use these tactics, and these were tactics. When it came to talking about Betsy Andreau, look at what Lance said, “I don’t want to take that on.”  His words say it all. Is that the response of someone who is coming clean and honest?  I don’t think you need me to answer that. He also didn’t want to talk about Dr. Ferrari.

Lance also wanted us to believe he just gave the UCI two checks for $125,000 but they were not to influence his drug test results. When Oprah pointedly asked him in the interview why he gave the money to the organization since we know now know his original reason was a lie, Lance struggled to answer the question. Lance struggles to answer several questions–clearly stuttering for words.  He finally said “because they asked me too”.  I don’t think anyone will ever buy that–and he wants us to accept his apology?

Lance tells us who he is and the picture he himself paints of himself is of someone who is ugly, flawed and untrustworthy.   He even says, “I’m a flawed character…”  As Oprah always says, when someone tells you who they are believe them!

Check back for more. As I see snippets of the interview, I may analyze some for you in the coming days.

Dr. Phil Episode: Raylynn.

/in /by

Dr. Phil had a horrific story of a woman, Raylynn, who fell pray to a cult where the cult leader eventually proclaimed he was “God”.  Despite the fact the cult leader openly slept with other women, raped children, and abused his followers, Raylynn was never was able to rationalize his control away.

Raylynn brought her then 14 year old daughter, Sunny, to a hotel and handed her off to the cult leader, whom she lived with to have sex with him, and left her alone. Horrific.

In the video above, you can see Raylynn and her now grown daughter, Sunny, talking to Dr. Phil.  Early in the show, Sunny said she forgave her mother even though she was forced to have sex with Sunny multiple times.

Curly Thorton, the cult leader, died in 1999.   He was clearly a master manipulator and a monster, but Raylynn still seems to be under his control.

Watch as Dr. Phil asks Raylynn to burn the box of memories she has of Curly.  We see tears, but I don’t believe they are from sadness.  Instead, I see a woman who is utterly confused and frustrated–who is still clinging to a belief she said earlier in the show.  She said, “What if Curly is God?”  She can’t let him go!

If Raylynn was totally on board with Dr. Phil and believed Curly was a monster, she would have had no problem letting go of that box and burning it.

Instead, we see a woman who is tortured by letting the box go.  She doesn’t get relief when she burns it, instead she moans out in pain…without a doubt, still thinking, “What if Curly really was God?”

This woman needs some serious help. I hope Dr. Phil gave it to her.

When Eyes Deceive – Eyewitness Testimony

Unexplained Dizziness

/15 Comments/in /by

693 - Ripple - Seamless Pattern

I went to the walk-in clinic this morning because I am experiencing dizziness.  It started the night before last and while I was not myself yesterday, what hit me last night troubled me enough to see a doctor this morning.

I awoke last night at 4:00 a.m. and felt really dizzy so I sat up to get focused.  I started to look at the time which is projected onto the wall by my alarm clock, and when I did, I couldn’t get the time on the wall to hold still. It was as if I was in a rocking chair rocking wildly, and the time was moving up and down in four-foot spans.

It was unsettling to say the least.

I closed my eyes a few times and it managed to slow down. I could look at the clock again, but as I closed my eyes, they seemed to be moving very annoyingly under my lids without my control.  Don’t ask me–I have no idea–that’s just what it felt like.. It was to the point I could not sleep.  After an hour or so, things subsided and I fell asleep.

Today I am unsteady.  At the doctor’s office they had me try to walk a straight line, and I had trouble doing it.   Thankfully I didn’t drive there.

The nurse looked at my ears because I have a bad ear which has issues, but she ruled my bad ear out–it looked good.  But my other ear appeared to show some potential of bubbles in the ear canal, which could be fluid.  So she said that could be the cause though she isn’t sure.  I’ve had a lot fluid and an infection in my other ear and never knew it, so would this ear make me feel different?  I’m curious.

The nurse gave me a few steriods to try and if that doesn’t stop this, she told me to go to the ER.  I thought that was strange.  Why the ER I asked. I’d prefer my doctor, but I suspect I won’t be able to get an appointment quickly if I need it.  She concurred.  Then she explained the walk-in clinic wouldn’t be able to do anything else for me hence that is why she made that recommendation.

Bear with me — I hope to be feeling better soon!

Royal Hoax DJs Speak Out

/in /by

Many of you have asked me what my thoughts are on the royal hoax situation. Most specifically people want to know if the two DJs are truly sorry for what happened.

While most people see that Mel is sorry as she clearly wears it on her face, many people are questioning whether Michael is sincere, too.

Michael is harder for people to read because he is showing a mix of emotions of both subtle anger and subtle sadness.

In this clip above, Michael says, “We both found out about the same time and I think it was…” He stops talking.  He clearly pauses, and we see him take a deep breath, and turn his head away.  As his head is turned, we clearly see tension and a frown as he is fighting to hold back his emotions here–emotions of sadness.

In the full video for A Current Affair, Michael displays signs of anger as well.  He could be feeling anger for a variety of reasons, which I can only speculate about.  In the full interview, Michael does say to us that he is still trying to process what happened.  I don’t think anyone expected this outcome, which makes it all the harder for everyone involved.

I read one article that said according to Australian law, the radio station was required by law to get consent from the nurse whose voice they recorded.  If that is true, clearly, someone at that this radio station dropped the ball.  But this case goes way beyond Australian law and delves into international ethics, and that’s an entirely different discussion.

Here is a prank that I think is truly mortifying and could have caused some a true heart attack.  Watch the facial expressions on this one.  Youser!!
