Am I going nuts, or was that Brooke Shields playing Melania Trump on the show tonight?! (Whoever it was, she was good.)

I believe we all have to buy our own from Goodwill ;-)

Maybe not full modern football helmets, but more like the olden time soft leather ones should be enough for that game. They're crawling around, not up and running :)

Shallow comment alert..just turned on today's view. Haven't read the board yet. MM's lipstick looks so much nicer today than that ghastly purple mess yesterday. But who in the heck thinks those little braids look nice on her? I think they make her hair look..I don't know...unwashed?

At least she doesn't have that horrible fake tan (tanning bed tan?) some people have...that's the worst.

Snerk.

Oh good..we need new snark. ;)

Ok..I thought some of these names were really out there. But I swear, my nephew and his wife, who are from my husband's side (Puerto Rican) and very newly (Pentecostal) fundy just wrote on Facebook that their daughter was just born. Here's her name 0_o Makaylei Jasendy ********** I'm flabbergasted.. (Sorry in advance if that's your kid's name, I'm..old)

I mean...can't you just use a vibrator for a sore shoulder or something, too?!

I just think the whole show is a lawsuit just waiting to happen. But I'm sure they sign their lives away to get onto it. It was funny when the one woman held her nose when she was about to be dropped down and Ellen asked her if she thought she was going to be dropped into water. :)

I agree! I think Ellen should have to punch the buttons blindfolded or something. But maybe they're trying to kind of control where they pop up so they don't punch right up into some guy's junk? Nah..they'd think that was funny. I did think it was funny when they groped the other contestants trying to find a seat. (So sue me, I guess I like 3 Stooges type humor too, sometimes) ;-)

Today is the last day I can get away with having my Christmas lights on. I always celebrated 3 Kings Day so my kids would get a little taste of their dad's Puerto Rican heritage, so we always kept the lights on up to this day (and including tonight.) My little red house will look so dreary without them. But I'm not taking them down until it's at least above freezing! (Yes,I know it's blurry, my hands were shaking..lol)

Yep. My sister's grandchild is special needs and the whole family pitched in to buy her granddaughter a special $800 chair that insurance wouldn't cover. It really made her life better. This whole story just makes me sick. You know that baby isn't going to get the proper help it might need. Shit..her "normal" kids aren't even fed properly.

OK, just watched the 2nd episode. This was a good thing to watch with my husband, who loves crappy slapstick shows like the 3 stooges. Also, English is his second language, so the dumbed down trivia questions were perfect for him. That's all I've got. They do have a chance to win $100,000 though. I'd be humiliated on teevee for that!

I didn't think of that until you mentioned it. You're right. It could be conjoined twins or something for all they know (my mind goes to weird places.) I hope both baby and mother are fine, though.

Have a sister just like that. My parents did her no favors. She has SEVEN children and when she became homeless, not one of them was willing to take her in because they knew she would never move out. (she moved in with a friend, what a fool to let her, she'll NEVER leave) Parents do their kids a huge disservice when they enable like this. Oops...back to Derick..wonder why one kid in the family is a designated grifter/leech and enabled by a parent and the other sibling(s) are not? Am I imagining that Derick's mother got him the only real job he's ever had?

Looks like it. :)

I just kept thinking I hope there was something EXTREMELY poofy at the bottom where they fell in to. I mean..like a million marshmallows poofy. I also thought I would have peed myself if I was unexpectedly catapulted into the sky while doing a puzzle. Wow.

How about a care basket of stuff from the resale shop?

I'm curled up in bed (because it's only 2° out) reading a new book I just bought for my kindle.

Mine is: X-pert Genius (how'd they know?!) ;-) I would give that name to Joy instead. :)

I had the lapband for 7 years and just had it removed a month ago (because all of a sudden I couldn't even keep water down.) I only lost 80 lbs with it in all those years, because it's very easy to find ways to cheat with it, unfortunately. But, I am glad to say it did cure me of my addiction to bread and pasta. I don't crave them now like I used to (both foods would make me vomit when I had the lapband in.) Now I can eat them, but I just don't want them anymore. But I'm scared to death I'm going to regain weight now that the lapband is out. :( Oops..back to the show..am watching to keep myself ON TRACK!! :)

My Mexican American dil's mom's name is Rosario. (And she's in her 60s)

Ahh...thanks..found it. "Four years ago Sue sadly lost a baby boy, Alfie, who was stillborn when she was 23 weeks’ pregnant"

I thought it was interesting that both parents were adopted. Maybe subconsciously they are creating the biological families they never knew? I think they are nice looking people. The Radford family, from Morecambe, Lancs, is made up of kids Chris, 28, Sophie, 24, Chloe, 22, Jack, 20, Daniel, 18, Luke, 17, Millie, 16, Katie, 15, James, 14, Ellie, 12, Aimee, 11, Josh, 10, Max, nine, Tillie, seven, Oscar, six, Casper, five, Hallie, two, Phoebe, 18 months, and Archie - who was born last Autumn. (20?)
