The Implications for the British Are Staggering

A few years ago, when The Rules for Marriage came out just as professional Rules Girl Ellen Fein was getting divorced, she offered I'm-still-right explanations like "I was very happily married for many, many years before the book came out. The sudden rise to fame and overnight celebrity was just too much for me and I filed for divorce when I just felt like it was all too much. I had stopped going out on date night and was too tired to do all the things I used to do... So, the book stays the same." Today, as I've just learned thanks to Maud, she's blaming her dentist.

The dentist, Larry Rosenthal, "deliberately and drastically altered my bite" causing "life-changing" damage, she alleges in a complaint recently filed with the New York State Office of Professional Discipline.

Oh, I so want The Smoking Gun to get this complaint online in its entirety. God help me, but I do. I'm only sorry that a certain blogger is no longer around to make the oral sex jokes I can't make without blowing my rep for civility (and I'm closing off the comments for this item so you can't make 'em, either, but even more so because I know what a magnet "oral sex" is going to be for comment spammers with pills to sell...).

UPDATE: Well, somebody put it online, anyway, which I found out through an anonymous tipster. Apparently Fein's not the only person who's not smiling after a trip to this dentist. (Yes, that is a dreadful close; this is what happens when you blog at 2:30 in the morning.)
