How they came about that little nugget I do not know.

I published the story more than two months ago, along with the relevant documentation proving the links, photographs, and documents from the Isle of Man aircraft registry online here: https://michaeljosem.com/russian-coup-leaders-plane-was-manx/

Obviously, Manx Radio journalists would benefit from subscribing to my website - they'd get such news months ahead of the Wall Street Journal's reporting on the same issue.

Best laugh of the year, the self aggrandising bio on that web site.

“Michael Josem is a long-term consumer advocate, most prominently as a global leader in combating fraud in the online gambling industry. He was in part the inspiration for the 20th Century Fox Movie, Runner Runner, starring Ben Affleck and Justin Timberlake.

Josem has over a decade of experience as a senior business leader working across various high-tech and online industries, and takes action to build a better community. His primary volunteer roles include service for the Commonwealth War Graves Commission, and Graih, the homelessness charity”.

Who finances that website and your organisation? 

I pay $15/month for hosting for my website.

Well, that's the back story of why I was hired by PokerStars and moved to the Isle of Man many years ago. 🤷‍♂️

It's not a secret, various books such as Alligator Blood and Fatal System Error tell the story further. "ultimatebeat - too much to lose" tells the story in a documentary-style...if you can endure 85 minutes of video on it.

Although I'm not so sure that this is how Uncle Ted wanted to be remembered?

What a shocking headline.  It should of course be "Pantsless".  Given the circumstances there may have been quite a lot of panting involved. 

The original US coverage (January 2016) does not make the same mistake.  Though if the Mail was really as proudly British as they claim to be, they should have changed it to "Trouserless"

Pantsless would imply he had one or fewer pant. Pantless would indicate he didn't have any. 

It’s slightly more than just the headline that’s shocking Roger. The whole episode is quite shocking. 

I love MF. A man dies after being ejected through the sun roof of his moving car while having a wank watching porn while driving and you two are debating the grammatical nuances about whether he was wearing one or two pairs of pants before he wasn’t wearing any.

Pants come as pairs.

As do scissors.

But at the risk of seeming even  more miserable to Rox I don’t like this pants thing. Underpants are things you wear underneath your trousers. Or possibly under a skirt (but they are probably better referred to as knickers )
So I’m not really sure what pants are other than what a dog does during panting.
