Stephanie Adams, Lecturer…

You have to understand and research your opponents, even unworthy ones. I found a gem not long ago.

Given Stephanie’s propensity to sue anyone (including the New York City Police Department for $5,000,000, a Big Apple blogger who merely voiced his disagreement about the NYPD lawsuit for $100,000, and two failed attempts at me personally for having mentioned her horrific web design skills), I add to her potential targets A.J. Daulerio, an edgy freelance writer who penned a riotous article about Stephanie for the New York Press.

According to AJ’s summation of Stephanie Adams’ leap into the lecture circuit abyss, the special Learning Annex seminar promised to teach attendees “how to attract that special someone who also happens to be loaded” and was to be given by a leader who “specializes in love compatibility and teaches the art of making relationships work.”

As stunning as Adams may be to look at, it was apparent that her public-speaking skills were gleaned from middle school. She spoke softly and read from a script that was surely in outline form, most likely with big Roman numerals and possibly written in crayon. She made minimal eye contact and had all the charm and charisma of an extremely attractive woman with absolutely nothing to say. Although she was a former pinup model, she had the sex appeal of a colostomy bag.

She cascaded downhill from there.

Apparently the high point in a series of increasingly poor advice for elderly women with expensive tastes in men was to use the Internet to “type in ‘where to meet rich guys’ and something will come up.” Needless to say, AJ — and hopefully all of the 50-plus women in attendance — got at least a partial refund from the Learning Annex.

There are a number of other bloggers that have touched on the topic of Stephanie (including Unhandled Perception, Gawker, QuizLaw, The Portland Experiment, toutCute, Celebitchy, and Fleshbot). Maybe she can sue them, too.

    Man, I’m aching to see her just stunningly crash and burn.

    In order to get and legally transcribe a deposition from Stephanie as a result of her frivolous lawsuit against James Poling, he is asking for donations to cover the actual costs. I, myself, sent James $10 via PayPal. Who knows — James might be sending the $10 back to me if she starts pointing her litigous fingers at me again!

    Waaaay back when James first didn’t fall for Stephanie Adams’ and her lawyer Martin Siegel’s mob enforcer tactics (”you can’t afford to fight us so just give us what we want, buddy”) I predicted that they would do exactly what bullies do when opposed. Run, hide and try to let the whole thing just blow over.

    Sooooo glad (and not at all suprised given how perfectly they’ve conducted themselves at every step) to see that James and his lawyer Neal “Eliot Ness” Johnston are not in any way going to allow this to happen.

    My $10 is on it’s way.

    (First found the cached page via google, then came here. Before that, it was Poling’s site, and before that, Fark.com)) Just wondering whatever happened with the letter to Playboy. Did they ever respond? I can’t imagine they enjoy having such a foulmouthed, vindictive, troublemaking woman representing them.

    “Maybe she can sue them, too.”

    Well, as a diversion away from me, I guess it was an effective suggestion, although not really with the intended effect:

    “Stephanie Adams… threatened my webhosts with a lawsuit if I didn’t take down an unflattering post about her (I took it down, I’m a pûššÿ)…” — Celebitchy

    Not that I’m trying to spill any beans, but changing the permalink was a pretty good idea. I see Ms. Adams has apparently also gone after PhotoBucket, making them remove hosted photos from the “unflattering post”. She must have nothing better to do everyday than surf the web, throwing out a narcissistic net. If the post is removed from Celebitchy, thankfully there is a permanent record.

    Metadish, formerly known as BlogNYC, seems to have removed all of its pages related to Stephanie. Wonder if that was due to court order, or simply having grown tired of the whole thing
