Oh Courtney, you really should have someone physically bar you from any and all social networking.
Courtney Love has spewed all sorts of vitriol and venom via MySpace, Facebook, emails, phone messages and perhaps even the occasional smoke signal. Not one to sit back and deny the world of what she is feeling, Courtney wrote two “incoherent and angry rants” on Facebook in regards to losing custody of her 17-year-old daughter Frances Bean.

Courtney Love’s lawyers say she didn’t lose custody of Frances Bean because she has relapsed into drugs and that Courtney is just fine.
