S13.E03: It's Not About the Pants
Raiderred replied to jewel21's topic in The Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills
Sutton is so very awkward. I'm around her age and from Texas and I remember how some of the girls treated each other during rush and she seems like the one that was hazed a lot. I was never in a sorority, and never rushed one, as I was a GDI but she always brings me back to those days because she is so weak and tries to be tough in front of the other ladies. I have a very southern accent and I think Sutton gets more southern when she drinks but she still has a strange stilted way to talk. I also think her dad's suicide has affected her, so I give her some leeway, too. -
S13.E02: Unwise Surprise

100% agree with you. I don't think it's a fake story line. I think Mo got busted with another woman. -
S12.E24: Reunion, Part 3
Raiderred replied to jewel21's topic in The Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills
I think Kathy said those things, too. I think she is an elite snob. She constantly acts dismissive of most people and situations, like she can't be bothered. I'm not a Rinna fan but I just don't believe Kathy. -
Hehe, what would you like to know? My husband continues to watch this little miniseries(He grew up in Galveston and did not live it so he thinks it's quite interesting) but I just thought it was taking too much liberty with the truth of life back in the day in little ol Lucas. The population was only about 1000 maybe 1500 folks. We only had a tiny little red school house called Lovejoy and when we finished the sixth grade we(our parents) had the choice of going to Allen, Wylie, Plano, McKinney or Princeton. I'd say 90% of us went to Allen. Lucas is HUGE today and it actually makes me sick at my stomach to see all the people and houses there. I live a good 85 miles from there so I don't have to look at the "progress". Anyway, the memories are the best of my childhood there. Most of our dads worked at T.I.(Jokingly called "Tiny Income" or "How many people work at T.I.? About 25%1"-lol) My dad did not work there and owned his own business very close to the Como motel in Richardson! It was always a running joke that when we would go to Richardson, on a rare occasion, we would always scream out, "Como Motel!", after the trial.

I'm a little late to the party but this story is very personal for me as I was a preteen growing up in Lucas, Texas and being very close to Candice's attorney, Donnie Crowder, and I dated his stepson. Lucas and Fairview(Montecito-pretty fancy little multi acre homes), where Candice lived, were tiny. My best friend lived in the cul de sac across the CDS from Candice. I could write a book on what the world was like in our beautiful rural area in the 70's and 80's. It was the best. Wylie was quite a ways from Fairview and Lucas is right in between. This murder was the talk of the town because everyone knew everyone. The church congregation was pretty small and we used to have lock-ins quite often there. Interesting tidbit: Me and my best friend babysat for Candice right after the trial as they were going out with another couple to celebrate them moving to Georgia and guess what was on TV while we were babysitting? The Lizzy Borden movie starring Elizabeth Montgomery! We caught the little girl sitting at the stairs watching it while we were sitting on the couch and we felt sorry for her and quickly changed the channel. It's wild to see my past life pass before me in the this series. Most of the shots are not in Lucas, Wylie or Fairview. The accents are THE worst as we have Texas accents, not Hollywood's idea of a Texas accent. LOL Also, Donnie Crowder divorced his very sweet wife and married a grocery store manager from Albertsons that was much younger than him as he was always very vain, verrrry vain. After a few years of marrying her he decided he wanted his ex-wife back and she said, NOPE, NO WAY! He went back to his house locked himself in his gym and shot himself to death. None of the adults like Donnie and my dad even used him as his corporate attorney and always said he was an absolute bulldog but just an asshole as a human. He hated people and he would let them know when he would show up to an occasional party. He was always great with us kids. He was my track coach for the ARCO Jesse Owens games in 1978. He ran for governor of Texas as a democrat and didn't really garner any votes. Anyway, I could go on and on about this story as it was a very wild ride for our town and yes, 99% of the adults thought Candice got away with murder!

Same here. Windows and doors have to be shut tight even in the garage or the system won't set but we always put it on "STAY" because the dogs can move around the house in the middle of the night. We also have security/game cameras all over our ranch. I always arm the house when my husband is out of town and have a Doberman and 2 Dachshunds in the room with me plus my firearms. Home invasions are on the rise and I will do everything to protect me and my family.

S12.E07: Allegation Aggravation
Raiderred replied to TexasGal's topic in The Real Housewives Of New Jersey
Yes, why do they baby her so much? Training wheels are for kids 3-5 yrs old! The way they talk to her is odd, like mentally she is 3-4 yr old. I have noticed this since the get go. IMHO, she is the youngest and just plain spoiled. -

Yay! My alma mater! They just opened this fall. We are in desperate need of large animal vets. Thankfully we still have the ability to get farm calls for our horses. -
Erika Girardi/Erika Jayne: Let them eat cake
Raiderred replied to ryebread's topic in The Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills
You are NEVER too old to compete! We have women who still barrel race competitively in their 70's and some even in their 80's. I personally know many. I'm no spring chicken(50 something) but being in the saddle is something you never forget or don't have an itch to do. I am retired and my husband funds me to compete and go anytime I want. It's in my blood. I'm not a WC but I have at least run in the 1D at the biggest shows and rodeos.- 5.1k replies

Erika Girardi/Erika Jayne: Let them eat cake
Raiderred replied to ryebread's topic in The Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills
The quickest way to make a million dollars in the horse business is to start with two million dollars! I don't know much about halter horses but we raise Quarter Horses for mostly barrel and timed events. This story broke and of course the rumors stirred up around some of the "hustlers" in our neck of the woods. Horse traders all over the damn place! -

Same with the case of Rita Crundwell the comptroller of tiny Dixon, IL. She embezzled nearly $54M from that town in over 20 years. It was all over the horse world. The dishonesty of these people is pure evil. -
I showed the video to my husband(former P.O.) and he thought it looked staged. I did, too, but I always like to see what he thinks. It will be interesting to see where it goes. I agree with others that say that the security is almost nonexistent. No, dogs, no security cams inside, no blaring alarm as soon as the glass is broken? Dorit didn't seem that traumatized in the interview I saw either but maybe she doesn't show much emotion in a situation like this. eh
