Check out this story recounted by the LA Times a week ago: Back in those early years, Schwarzenegger could take over a room with his heft and humor, his former gym partners say. But often he could be mean-spirited. According to several of those workout partners, Schwarzenegger played a particularly cruel joke on his now-deceased bodybuilding friend Don Peters. At the time, Schwarzenegger was single and made no secret of his attraction to Peters' girlfriend, a beauty contest winner. One day after a fight with Peters, the girlfriend went home with Schwarzenegger. That night, Schwarzenegger told her he needed a favor. Would she mind calling his lawyer to reschedule an appointment? Schwarzenegger dialed the number, but it wasn't to the lawyer's house, according to several bodybuilders familiar with the incident. Instead, he had phoned Peters. It took only a moment for the ruse to become clear. As Peters and his girlfriend discovered each other's voices, Schwarzenegger shouted into the phone. "I just [made love to] her. I just [made love to] her," recalled Gene Mozee, a bodybuilder and muscle magazine editor who was friends with both men. "Peters drove over and banged on Arnold's door, but he wouldn't answer," Mozee said. "All he heard was Arnold laughing." 22183@blogcritics.org Tue, 7 Oct 2003 11:53:02 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2003/10/07/104935.php#comment-22172 I hereby give up the use of the word "alleged" when it comes to Schwarzenegger and groping. He knows and admits he did offensive things (even if he only "apologized" for the sake of politics). "Alleged," therefore, is an unnecessary modifier inthis case. 22172@blogcritics.org Tue, 7 Oct 2003 11:05:37 EDT
