posted 6/29/2004: NOTE: That dolt, Darva, has now blocked access to the archived edition of her website, which is truly sick! I'd hoped that I had already saved most of it, on disks, because that is truly annoying! However, I don't think I have! If anyone has saved pages of her site, could you please send me email, so I can upload it. elsewhere? Send to:

I will say, now, that I feel that I have been HORRIBLY USED!! Darva has not only blocked access/removed material from the archive site, she has ALSO hacked into one or more of my groups, to remove messages that had reprinted the text from her site!
So, she feels that she has a "right" to do this! I do NOT!!!!!! If she didn't like something, then she should've written to me, personally, NOT hacked into my group that way!
I've sent the group's server a notice about it--because nothing has shown up, to inform me if any of my posts had been deleted. THAT would've been the case, had they been removed via legitimate means!

I had also defended Darva, in print, and in voice, regarding the allegations made toward her, by Rick Rockwell--who is now claiming that, on their disasterous "wedding night," contrary to everthing that Darva said, in interviews, that she asnd he were in separate beds, --even separate rooms, in their suite--that she'd gotten into the same bed with him, while he was naked, and she was in " satin tap pants, and camisole." Darva told me --in an email--that Rick had lied. But since Darva has proven herself to be QUITE a liar--and a dishonest hacker, and careless of my feelings, I no longer believe her.

Darva, you are a disgrace, for the way you treated me, and for hacking my group. You were self-centered in removing your site from the archive site, even if you were no longer interested in maintaining your site--which is understandable, because you wouldn't want the expense; and if you weren't interested, nor had the time/inclination to answer letters anymore, of course you wouldn't want to leave your site seemingly active. However, the site was very useful, and had provided viewers with useful information; and unless you are planning to write a book, and want to reuse the material, to sell, you shouldn't have removed all traces and public access to the site! It is insulting! It seems like you just wanted some "public love" when it was desired by you--then, when you didn't need your public, nor fans, you decided to just drop it! AND hacked into my fanclubgroup!!

And YOU wanted a career in show biz? ( of course, you ARE restarting one, on GSN, with your Las Vegas Wedding Show! )

Rick was probably CORRECT about you. And it hurts me to say that, because he's been a bastard, as well.

But YOU, Darva, are a SNOB and ELITIST for having treated me in the way that you have.
DISGRACEFUL.

[ 6/29/04: I'm leaving the following in place, for viewers to see what cheesed Darva off, so ] NOTE: You can view the archived version of Darva's expired website, and Rick's older version at:

Please note, that several of the links on Darva's House site will not work, as this is an ARCHIVED version; and sadly, Darva had fixed too many of her pages, with a code, forcing the user to a sign-in page--thus, sadly foiling the archive site's search engines. Many of these pages were not archived, or cannot be found.
MAYBE Darva, herself, can provide the archive site with missing pages? Hint, Hint?

Successful Bachelors.com--expired site, with Rick's endorsement--for which he wasn't paid--so he'd had his photos removed! ( you can still see most of the text--except his "view on love" )

UPDATE: JULY 31, 2001:
The "Orphaned" Sites of Darva and Rick?

On July 19th, visitors to Darva's Site were shocked to read this foul message:
Welcome to http://www.worm.com !
Hacked By Chinese!

It had supplanted almost every page on her site. Hopefully, no one had gone to that foul site; for this was later identified as a virus, dubbed the "Code Red" virus, it's discovery date was 7/17/01. It is an Internet worm, and worried many, that nations' security and military systems would be affected, when it was predicted to strike again. Fortunately, it did NOT--yet. ( Hope not EVER! Hackers such as these, who cause mischief and destruction have no care as to the great personal loss to private PC owners, in their quest to dominate/control/wreck havoc upon Big Business and Big Government! ) CodeRed description

I, myself, had written to Darva to alert her--and she assured me that her webmaster was working on the problem at that moment. It had been fixed by the next day, all operations normal. EXCEPT--that she STILL hadn't updated, and would not, for awhile!

We cheer the triumph over the dispicable hacker/virus. But Darva disappoints us all, who love her site, by informing me that she's somewhat tired of the site, and wants to move on. It transpires that as she had created this site along with Dennis Klifman, her ex-boyfriend, it hurts too much, and reminds her of him. It appears that since the resume of her nursing career, her need to explain herself has abated significantly. Her website, created at a time when her career and future was in flux, was a necessity in making her position, and viewpoint clear to all. Her biography, as well as the weekly installments, describing/explaining how/why she had become involved with the "Who Wants to Marry a Millionaire?" show in the first place, was a rousing success. For many, this site had been a revelation: Darva had shown that she was a real person, with thoughts, feelings, philosophies, who enjoyed movies, books, fun new recipes, like anyone else. She wasn't *just* the "infamous golddigger bride" that so many had thus pigeonholed her to be. She became three-dimensional. She triumphed, especially, with her daily e-mail postings, where she'd demonstrated a sense of humor, friendliness, caring and warmth towards those who shared their feelings, hopes, dreams, fears with her. She readily advised those seeking her opinion and knowledge. She offered her aid in the field she was expert in: health, nutrition, and exercise. But she researched the answers to those questions that she did not know out of hand. I, myself, had asked her a few, that I had puzzled over, for years. I was impressed by her quickness and thoroughness in answering. It isn't easy to obtain answers from many publications, online or paper. Most of us who write to editors go without a personal or posted response. Darva had made a pledge to answer "everyone, eventually." From what I've observed, she certainly made a valiant effort to do so. Impressive, in light of her busy life and schedule. Even when she'd first returned to nursing ( via a registry, which assigned her to whatever venue needed her skills ), she'd kept up with the e-mails--albeit with multiple breaks, due to an increased workload. Considering that, I'd known it was only a matter of time.

And so it goes. As of late, Darva has all but ceased updates. One hopes, that one day they may resume. Darva's House.com is a delight, one of the best-looking websites on the net.

Meanwhile, Rick Rockwell refuses to update HIS site. Rick Rockwell.com was put together some years ago, and not updated in look, style, or content since. His webmaster was QUITE testy when I'd asked if an update was forthcoming:

: "Sorry, Rick's website content is how he wants it (at this time). I'll only change it if and when he asks me. Thanks for your interest.
Phil"

Considering that Rick IS in show business, and many, many comedians manage to maintain and update their own websites ( which are far superior in content and construction ), one would think that it would be a priority? Once, I'd suggested that he post sexy Speedo shots of himself, as well as other good photos--as the ones he HAS displayed upon the site make him look so old, and do not display his looks to their best advantage. His answer was to the effect that since it was a site geared towards corporations that sought speakers, his looks wouldn't be a priority. I firmly disagree. It never hurts to show how good you look to ANY type of potential employers. Plus, Rick needs to have a section of his site geared to his fans. I've viewed the sites of several comedians, and they ALL have sections devoted to potential employers, as well as to their fans--many having guest books to leave comments; and ALL display a performance schedule, letting their fans know where and when they will appear! Why, then, has Rick all but abandoned HIS site??

Rick's fans want very much to know where and when he will appear in their own home town. Why has he left them bewildered so?

Part of the problem may be that he's had a turnover in representation. I asked him if he was going to replace the agent/manager he'd fired. Apparently, he's reluctant to search for another. He seemed to have thought that THEY should come to HIM.
Wake up, Rick! That happens, rarely! YOU have to choose! And it helps to have a PR and/or manager with connections. Darva had lucked out with Kevin Allyn, whom she knew through her friend, ex-Monkey Mickey Dolenz. Kevin has vast experience and impressive contacts. He'd managed to negotiate an impressive deal with Playboy, arranged for a comfortable talk show schedule, and had helped Darva to make all sorts if savvy deals, as well as getting her invites to glittering parties, including Oscar parties, in both 2000 and 2001!
Rick, meanwhile, decided to hire rather cut-rate PR, and manager, who ended up making deals that got him into trouble. San Diego based Theo Hansen was accused of making threats to EYada talk-hosts Dan and Scott. He'd arranged for Rick's second interview with them, and allegedly warned them, that if they screwed up, he'd make sure that they never worked again! During Rick's LIVE interview with the streaming-audio talk-hosts, they decided to surprise Rick, by playing the phone message tape of Theo ( alleged ) threats. Sometime afterward, Theo was dismissed from Rick's employ.
Rick had also complained of Alice Tauna, who'd gotten him involved with a publicity deal that had backfired. The tabloid involved had promised "a day in the life" article--but had tricked him, turning the thing into a rip of his character!

We, the public, are awaiting the publication of Rick's autobiography. It would help, significantly, if he would go to the trouble of researching for a top-notch manager. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

UPDATE 8/27/01

RICK'S WEBSITE

UPDATE: SEPTEMBER, 2001

Word is, that Darva, the Gulf War Veteran, is heartsick over the World Trade Center tragedy. Word is, that Darva had worried that she'd lost friends in the devastation in New York, on September 11, 2001. She is saddened that this generation will know the tragedy of war. Also, Darva has had many friends from the United Arab Emirates, and worries for the safety and well-being of those whose race and religion might attract the attention of bigots bent on hate-crimes.
We ALL hope for the best.

No word, yet, on Rick's friends and family. Rick's family and boyhood friends live in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, where one plane had crashed. And some of the terrorists had once resided in Rick's current home town, San Diego. Rick is a pilot, as are his friends, John and Martha King, and others, and might've run into them, on some airfield.

UPDATE

11/11/01:
Rick threatens several people with lawsuits, and files false accusations with the police--i.e., he's committed a criminal act, in doing so. Speculation is that a girlfriend of his has, once again, ditched him, and he's acting out, in his frustration. Rick has destroyed several promising friendships, --business and personal--by acting in this manner, He has also cheated at least one employee out of payment, for work on his book. But at last word, his former live-in "personal assistant," ( whom he'd only introduced as "Nicole" ) had finally gotten fed up, and left. More about this later.

RICK WON!!!!!!

DARVA IS ENGAGED!

Rick's website

DARVA ABANDONS WEBSITE!!!

Wondering: I remember how Olga had cried, when she lost a mano-a-mano match against Nadia Comeneche. Think we'll see tears, once again? Though it IS apropos that Olga fight Darva: as Olga, with her tears, her rebelliousness, matched by her incredible audience appeal, and charisma, was an early precurser to Princess Diana.
Darva, meanwhile, had also reminded one of Diana, with her mad dashes away from the press, the emphasis on a marriage gone bad, etc. etc. It SHALL be interesting.

UPDATE: DARVA WON!!!
