Eagle Claw

I pulled up this page yesterday or very early this morning but I didn't read it until now and it has been open in my browser since I clicked the link.

When I opened it all I read was the title and the title summary.

I still haven't read it all. I just had to bust out laughing when I read the name of the woman.

Two or three days ago the local Fox television channel that air broadcasts in Seattle showed a re-broadcast of that "The Simpsons" episode where "Marge" gets mugged and then she turns into a body-builder and I wondered about that woman again.

The physicist, the glamour model and the suitcase of cocaine

Paul Frampton is a particle physicist, Denise Milani a glamour model. They met online, fell in love, made plans to meet. But first she had a favour to ask: could he collect her bag from Bolivia?

In November 2011, Paul Frampton, a theoretical particle physicist, met Denise Milani, a Czech bikini model, on the online dating site mate1.com. She was gorgeous – dark-haired and dark-eyed, with a supposedly natural DDD breast size. In some photos, she looked tauntingly steamy; in others, she offered a warm smile.

Soon, they were chatting online nearly every day. He would return home from campus – he had been a professor in the physics and astronomy department at the University of North Carolina for 30 years – and his computer would buzz. "Are you there, honey?" They'd chat on Yahoo Messenger for a while, then he'd go to the other room to take care of something. A half-hour later, there was the familiar buzz. It was always Milani: "What are you doing now?"

Frampton had been lonely since his divorce three years earlier; now it seemed those days were over. Milani told him she was longing to change her life. She was tired of being a glamour model, of posing in her bikini on the beach while men ogled. She wanted to settle down, have children. But she worried what he thought of her: "Do you think you could ever be proud of someone like me?" Of course he could, he assured her.

Frampton tried to get her to talk on the phone, but she always demurred. When she finally agreed to meet him in person, she asked him to come to La Paz, Bolivia, where she was on a photoshoot. On 7 January 2012, he set out for Bolivia via Toronto and Santiago, Chile. At 68, he dreamed of finding a wife to bear him children – and what a wife. He pictured introducing Milani to colleagues. One thing worried him, though. She had told him that men hit on her all the time. How did that affect her? Did it go to her head? But then he remembered how comforting it felt to chat with her, like having a companion in the next room. And he knew she loved him. She'd said so many times.
