Is there truth to the rumor that the IOBC Chairwomen Barbara Mier has left the country for a tropical paradise hideaway with head of The Blogging Virtual Security Force Jake Silver? Is this a picture taken of them by a waiter with a hidden camera in the umbrella of their tropical drinks? Speculation is running high as the official statement from the IOBC headquarters is that Miss Miers is on a well deserved vacation at an undisclosed location. Mr. Silver is attending a Blogger Security Seminar and was unavailable for comment.
